Reversing fatty liver (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD) involves lifestyle changes focused on improving liver health. Here’s what you can do:
1. Lose Weight Gradually
- Aim to lose 5-10% of your body weight to reduce liver fat.
- Avoid crash diets—gradual weight loss is safer for your liver.
2. Eat a Healthy Diet
- Cut down on sugar and refined carbs (sodas, white bread, sweets).
- Increase fiber intake (vegetables, fruits, whole grains).
- Eat healthy fats (avocados, nuts, olive oil, fatty fish).
- Reduce saturated fats (fried foods, processed meats, fast food).
- Try the Mediterranean diet, which is great for liver health.
3. Exercise Regularly
- 150–300 minutes of moderate activity (brisk walking, swimming) per week.
- Strength training helps reduce fat buildup.
4. Control Blood Sugar & Cholesterol
- If you have diabetes or high cholesterol, managing them helps prevent liver damage.
5. Avoid Alcohol & Sugary Drinks
- Alcohol worsens liver fat, even in small amounts.
- Sugary drinks (soda, fruit juices) contribute to fatty liver.
6. Stay Hydrated & Improve Gut Health
- Drink plenty of water.
- Probiotics (yogurt, fermented foods) may help.
7. Consider Supplements (if needed)
- Vitamin E may help some people with NAFLD (ask your doctor first).
- Omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish or supplements) can help reduce liver fat.
