Understanding Fatty Liver Disease and Its Risks
Fatty liver disease affects approximately one in four adults worldwide, often developing without noticeable symptoms until it's too late. It occurs when fat accumulates in liver cells, leading to inflammation and subsequent damage that can escalate to serious conditions such as cirrhosis and increased risks of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Recent research highlights the concerning link between fatty liver disease and higher mortality rates due to complications from endocrine disorders, infections, and other health issues. Early detection and intervention are crucial, as problems can intensify rapidly, notably within the first year following diagnosis.
