Have you been diagnosed with Fatty Liver Disease or NAFLD?
Did you have your blood work done and your doctor told you that your ALT or AST levels are elevated and that you have a fatty liver?
Unfortunately, there is no medication that specifically reduces liver fat. Therefore, lifestyle changes such as eating habits and nutrition are the only treatment options for those with fatty liver.
Our Registered Dietitians understand the medical complexities of fatty liver and are able to personalize a plan to help improve your liver health. It is possible to resolve fatty liver within 3-6 months, depending on the degree of fatty liver.
