How is fatty liver treated?

Patient's question:

I recently had discomfort in my chest and had an ultrasound done. The detailed examination revealed that I have mild fatty liver. I usually sit at an office desk, and it might be due to eating too well and too little exercise that I developed this condition. I would like to ask how to treat fatty liver?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, there are no drugs specifically for treating fatty liver. Long-term use of Western medicine can increase the liver's burden of detoxification, so I recommend using Western medicine for treatment. You can try the "food as medicine" approach for holistic care. This not only helps treat fatty liver but also provides excellent protection for the liver. Exercise is the best treatment for fatty liver, but it requires patience. Fatty liver is a serious condition, so patients should seek timely treatment and follow their doctor's advice for targeted care. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues, avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
