What is Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease?
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a condition where fat builds up in the liver in people who do not drink much alcohol.
It often develops slowly, and signs of fatty liver often remain silent in the early stages. Some people feel tired or mild discomfort in the upper right side of the abdomen.
NAFLD usually happens due to metabolic problems like obesity, diabetes, and insulin resistance. Poor diet, lack of exercise, and weight gain also increase the risk. These factors cause the body to store more fat, which can collect in the liver and affect its normal function over time.
What is MASH Disease?
MASH liver disease is an advanced form of fatty liver in which excess fat builds up in the liver and triggers inflammation and damage to liver cells, primarily due to underlying metabolic problems rather than alcohol use. It is the updated clinical term for what was previously known as NASH.
The debate of MASH vs NASH reflects a naming change.
- NASH = Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
- MASH = Metabolic dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis
Both terms refer to the same advanced form of fatty liver disease, involving fat buildup, liver inflammation, and fibrosis.
Signs of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver & Mash Symptoms
Signs of Fatty liver and MASH symptoms can appear gradually, from mild fatigue to more serious liver issues. Recognizing these early helps us provide timely treatment and protect your liver health.
Common Signs of a Fatty Liver
- Fatigue or constant tiredness
- Weakness or low energy levels
- Mild pain or discomfort in the upper right abdomen
MASH Symptoms (Advanced Fatty Liver Disease)
- Persistent fatigue and weakness
- Abdominal pain due to an enlarged liver
- Unexplained weight loss
- Yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice)
