Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is an urgent, often unrecognized concern. It’s the hepatic pandemic of the 21stcentury, and there is NO approved pharmaceutical therapy (the race is on, however…). Fortunately for us, there is MUCH we can do in functional medicine – indeed, our toolkit is powerfully effective in turning around NAFLD and even NASH – the next step progression. Listen to my conversation with my good friend and longtime colleague Dr. Robert Rountree (finally on NFFM!). Bob outlines the scope of the problem (did you know 80% of obese kids are at risk?) how to evaluate for it, and most importantly: what to do. This was such a content-dense discussion, I am most grateful Bob has made his full powerpoint deck available to you for download. Take a listen to the podcast, then circle back to the deck for all the specific details on what to do.
