What is the treatment of non alcholic fatty liver diseases?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Liver heals itself: There is no medication for liver diseases. For the dangerous and deadly fatty liver disease this is treated with a two pronged approach: weight loss and low carbohydrate diet combined with avoidance of all other liver toxins: Acetaminophen and alcohol.

Several things: This is largely genetic but expresses itself less if you are aerobically fit. You may be offered metformin, some other meds, or just watchful waiting and avoiding alcohol. I cannot agree that food choices are critical, but try to stay trim and fit. Best wishes
