These people are most at risk of getting Fatty Liver Disease, so many people in India are suffering from the disease


People who are overweight are more 
likely to be obese and people who are diabetic . They are at risk of having non-alcoholic fatty liver. The Union Ministry of Health said that about 9% to 32% of India's population has non-alcoholic fatty diseases (NAFLD). Many people think that only people who drink alcohol suffer from liver related disease or liver deterioration. But not so. Alcohol consumption these days increases the disease rapidly.

Diabetic patients have an 80% higher risk of developing NAFLD

The researchers found that people with type 2 diabetes had a 40-80% higher risk of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, while those with obesity had a 30-90% higher risk of developing the disease. Numerous studies have shown that people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease NAFLD have a much higher risk of cardiovascular disease.

Excess fat causes insulin resistance

The problem of obesity is associated with the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease NAFLD because the excess fat present in the body causes imbalance resistance and inflammation. Insulin resistance causes the pancreas to produce more insulin so that the body's blood glucose level remains normal and this increases the risk of developing diabetes.

Introducing some operational guidelines on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease NAFLD, Union Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan said, “NAFLD is a disease in which fat accumulates abnormally even without secondary causes associated with fatty liver. It can also cause liver cirrhosis, liver cancer and many other diseases such as non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis (NASH). NAFLD is a leading cause of liver disease in India.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease NAFLD can be easily managed by making changes in your lifestyle and behavior and making a timely diagnosis.
