Is moderate fatty liver harmful?

Patient's question:

A friend who often drinks beer and plays with me together was carefully checked and found to have moderate fatty liver disease. Now, we can no longer drink beer together. I'm also sad that I might also get moderate fatty liver disease. I don't know what the harm of moderate fatty liver disease is.

Doctor's answer:

The dangers of moderate fatty liver:
Danger 1: Fatty liver can weaken the human immune system. The liver plays a role in compression, detoxification, and metabolic decomposition in the human body, capable of absorbing, metabolizing, and completely eliminating various pathogens that enter the body. However, fatty liver can cause fat degeneration or suppuration of liver cells, leading to an increase in the liver's immune system function, thereby enhancing the body's ability to resist diseases.
Danger 2: It may lead to the occurrence of fatty liver cirrhosis, as cirrhosis is often the final result of various liver diseases. If fat accumulates excessively in the liver for a long time, it can affect the liver's blood and oxygen supply, as well as the body's metabolic decomposition.
