Can obesity lead to fatty liver disease?

Patient's question:

Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has become problematic. Now, I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. Can obesity lead to fatty liver disease?

Doctor's answer:

Fatty liver is closely related to dietary and lifestyle habits. Patients with fatty liver are often inactive and dislike consuming greasy foods and beer. Although you enjoy drinking beer and eating excessively greasy foods, regular exercise can enhance the consumption of fat tissue and reduce the accumulation of excess fat, making it less likely for you to develop fatty liver. If you are still concerned, it is recommended to have a liver, gallbladder, spleen, and kidney ultrasound examination at a hospital on an empty stomach. It is also advisable to drink more water, consume more fresh fruits and vegetables, and reduce the intake of beer and excessively greasy foods.
