The two main forms of this pathology:
- Alcoholic steatosis: caused by regular and excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages.
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: associated with metabolic factors such as overweight, diabetes or poor diet.
Particularly worrying, the non-alcoholic form affects approximately 25% of the world’s adult population and can progress to severe complications without appropriate care.
Symptoms not to be ignored
In many cases, hepatic steatosis develops silently. However, certain signs can reveal its presence:
- Unusual and persistent fatigue
- A feeling of discomfort or pain in the upper right part of the abdomen
- Recurring digestive problems (bloating, heaviness)
- Yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes in advanced stages
- Nausea and loss of appetite
The presence of these symptoms warrants a medical consultation and specific examinations.
Main risk factors
- An unsuitable diet: excessive consumption of sugary, fatty and processed products.
- Being overweight: particularly abdominal fat which promotes lipid deposition in the liver.
- Metabolic disorders: type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance.
- Alcohol consumption: even moderate but regular.
- Physical inactivity: which slows down liver metabolism.
The good news? Lifestyle changes can often improve the situation.
