    Fatty Liver - Alejandro Pierce

    Crisp

    INTRODUCTION

    By default, a healthy liver gets rid of harmful substances from the blood, processes everything we eat and drink and is the second largest organ in the body. Fat becomes excess in the liver when more than 5-10% of the liver's weight is made up of fat. Fatty Liver (Hepatic Steatosis) is the presence of excess lipids (fat) in or between the liver cells just as the name suggests. This is a chronic continuous condition that weakens the liver and hinders the liver from functioning to keep you healthy, according to the original design. The buildup of excess fat in the liver compromises the liver's function - having some fat in your liver is very normal, but excess fat becomes a health trouble. The liver has the ability to repair itself, and build newer cells when the old ones are destroyed. The liver can be permanently scarred, when the liver takes repeated damage - this is a state of cirrhosis (scarring of the liver).

    Fatty liver is very common and it affects up to 10-20% of the American populace without inflammation or cirrhosis (scarring of the liver). In most cases, fatty liver does not create irreversible harm unless it progresses, it is a condition that can be undone and corrected with basic lifestyle changes. Fatty liver can become dangerous to the liver if the primary cause of the fatty liver isn't discovered and corrected.

    Types Of Fatty Liver

    The primary fatty liver types are two: alcohol connected and non alcohol connected.

    Alcohol Related

    When a person consumes alcohol in excess, the liver is damaged and the metabolism of fat in the liver is compromised and becomes difficult. This can be corrected by alcohol abstinence. The fatty liver should naturally subside within 1 month and 2 weeks of alcohol abstinence. If the person keeps drinking alcohol excessively, cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) may grow. 

    Non-Alcoholic Related

    This type of fatty liver is developed when the liver has a buildup of liver tissue from having difficulty breaking down fats. It is diagnosed when the liver contains over 10% fat and the cause does not relate to alcohol.

    Causes Of Fatty Liver

    Heavy drinking and alcoholism is the major cause of fatty liver. In many cases, fatty liver also occurs in people who drink little or no alcohol and doctors are still yet to find out the causes.

    When the body produces excess fat or cannot break down fat rapidly, it is known as the development of fatty liver. This surplus fat accumulates in the liver cells and over time fatty liver disease is formed. Eating meals that are high in sugar and fat are not necessarily a direct cause of fatty liver, but it can add to the risk of fatty liver. There are various causes of fatty liver besides alcoholism such as:

    Side effects of some drugs, which include tetracyline (Panmycin), tamoxifen (Nolvadex), steroids, and aspirin

    Fast weight loss

    Genetic inheritance

    Diabetes

    High blood fat levels or hyperlipidemia

    Obesity

    Symptoms Of Fatty Liver

    At the early stages, fatty liver has no connected symptoms. A person may have a slightly enlarged liver detected via a physical medical exam; the person may experience indistinguishable abdominal distress or fatigue. Nevertheless, too much fat in the liver can lead to inflammation which has obvious associated symptoms such as:

    Confusion

    Exhaustion

    Physical weakness

    Abdominal pain

    Loss of weight, and

    Lack of appetite.

    Fatty liver can also progress to liver failure and cirrhosis with associated symptoms such as:

    A propensity to bleed easily

    Confusion

    Yellow eyes and skin jaundice

    Fluid filled and enlarging abdomen

    Fatty Liver Reversal

    The fatty liver is a condition that can be reversed and prevented. The risk of fatty liver can also be reduced drastically by leading a healthy and controlled lifestyle. Some of this lifestyle changes includes:

    Medical Treatments

    Most times, fatty liver is often connected to diabetes. Early research proposes that some medications meant for diabetic patients might be able to correct fatty liver such as: pioglitazone and rosiglitazone (these two medications energizes the cells to become responsive to insulin produced by your body) and metformin (oral drug that controls blood sugar levels). As a result, blood sugar is drastically lowered and less insulin is produced by the body. Another good medication for the treatment of fatty liver is orlistat, a medication often used for weight loss. This medication stops the assimilation of fat from food, consequently making lesser fat available for absorption by the body and the liver.

    Regular scheduled visits to your doctor are also very necessary once you discover you have fatty liver. It is important to be under the care and supervision of a doctor who is a specialist in liver care. The doctor will help to sort out the best appropriate medical treatments for you and the lifestyle that will best suit you. There are related health conditions that need to be checked and treated. If you have been diagnosed with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, it becomes imperative to check for other health
