What is Fatty Liver Disease?

Fatty liver disease is becoming increasingly common in Pakistan due to obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance, unhealthy eating habits, and a sedentary lifestyle.

Fatty liver disease occurs when excess fat accumulates in the liver. In its early stages, it may not cause noticeable symptoms, but if left untreated, it can progress to liver inflammation, liver scarring (fibrosis), cirrhosis, and liver failure.

Dr. Fowad Shahzad focuses on identifying the root causes of fatty liver and developing personalized treatment plans that target metabolic health, weight management, diabetes control, and lifestyle improvement.

Early diagnosis and proper management are essential to prevent long-term liver damage and improve overall health.

Common Causes of Fatty Liver

Obesity

Excess body weight is one of the leading causes of fatty liver disease. People with obesity are at a significantly higher risk of developing liver fat accumulation and related complications.

Type 2 Diabetes

Poorly controlled diabetes can increase fat deposition in the liver and worsen liver inflammation over time.

Insulin Resistance

Insulin resistance is closely linked with fatty liver disease and often occurs alongside obesity, prediabetes, and metabolic syndrome.

High Cholesterol and Triglycerides

Elevated blood fats can contribute to liver fat accumulation and increase the risk of liver damage.

Sedentary Lifestyle

Lack of physical activity and unhealthy dietary habits can increase the risk of developing fatty liver disease.

Symptoms of Fatty Liver Disease

Many patients have no symptoms during the early stages. However, some individuals may experience:

  • Persistent fatigue
  • Weakness
  • Unexplained weight gain
  • Abdominal discomfort
  • Feeling of fullness in the upper abdomen
  • Elevated liver enzymes on blood tests

If you have diabetes, obesity, or metabolic syndrome, regular screening for fatty liver is highly recommended.
