How much do you weigh? If your BMI is more than 25, you need to reduce your weight through exercise and diet. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Close to 90% of people with NAFLD don't go on to cirrhosis. In the aggressive form,however, cirrhosis can develop within 2years. Currently it is not possible to identify the patients who are at high risk for rapid progression. NAFLD is reversible. You'd be best served by having a hepatologist or gastroenterologist supervise your care&ensure that you receive proper treatment and periodic testing
