Patient's question:
How to treat mild fatty liver; the report says there is diffuse inflammation of the liver parenchyma; considering mild fatty liverDoctor's answer:
Fatty liver refers to a metabolic inflammatory condition characterized by excessive fat accumulation within liver cells, caused by various different reasons or diseases. The liver is primarily a digestive organ. The food we consume is absorbed as nutrients in the small intestine and then transported to the liver via the portal vein. In the liver, a series of powerful metabolic processes take place, where proteins, sugars, and fats are synthesized to meet the body's needs. These substances are then distributed throughout the body via the circulatory system. Therefore, the liver can be likened to a "chemical factory" within the human body. Excess calories, malnutrition, obesity, diabetes, poor nutrition, high blood lipids, hepatitis, medications, and other factors can all lead to fatty liver.
