The nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is a condition that affects people who drink little to no alcohol and those who are obese, is becoming a pandemic disease all around the world. Experts theorize that over a billion people are diagnosed with this disease and might increase by 50 percent by the year 2030.
NAFLD is a disease caused by too much fat stored in the liver cells. A healthy liver must not contain little or no fat. The early stage of NAFLD does not cause harm. However, if left untreated, it may lead to conditions such as cirrhosis of the liver and into nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which is a liver disease that causes liver transplants. The increase of fat in the liver also augments the risk of conditions like heart attacks, strokes and diabetes, according to NHS.
