Do you need medication for mild fatty liver?

Patient's question:

I have mild fatty liver, and I've been taking medication to lower ALT and AST recently, but it hasn't been very effective.

Doctor's answer:

Mild cases do not require medication, there's no need for it. You should eat more fruits and vegetables, reduce the intake of greasy foods, and limit sweet foods. Increase your protein intake, and it's best to quit smoking and drinking, or try to avoid alcohol as much as possible. Fatty liver disease is very serious, and it is recommended that patients start treatment immediately. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues, avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
