Obesity is a significant risk factor for liver diseases, particularly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is characterized by excess fat accumulation in liver cells. NAFLD can progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), liver fibrosis, and even cirrhosis if left untreated. The excess fat in obesity promotes inflammation and insulin resistance, further exacerbating liver damage. Weight loss, dietary modifications, and physical activity are critical in managing obesity-related liver conditions. Recognizing and addressing liver health in obesity is vital, as it can prevent severe liver complications and improve overall metabolic health, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive obesity management.
