what is the reason of fatty liver - #17197

Ishaan

I am really worried about my health lately! Went for my annual checkup and my doc mentioned I have a fatty liver condition. He said I should look into what is the reason of fatty liver because it's not normal for someone my age—I'm only 35! I don’t drink much alcohol, maybe a glass of wine at a party, but my diet isn't the greatest, def. too many takeouts over the past few months, living that busy life. I'm trying to figure out what is the reason of fatty liver and if there's a way to manage, or even reverse it? I read somewhere that diabetes and obesity could be related, and since I’ve noticed my weight creeping up, that kinda makes sense...but I'm not sure if that’s the only reason? Also, when I asked my doc about exercise, he mentioned how that could help but didn’t get into details on how much or what type, and I feel clueless. Like should I be doing more cardio or strength training? What is the reason of fatty liver for someone like me? Can those lifestyle changes really make a big difference? Feeling a bit lost, and honestly, it’s a bit scary to think about.
