Fatty liver and weight loss
Weight loss is the key for curing a fatty liver. Losing body weight helped many patients to reverse a a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH / NAFLD) fatty liver disease.
Why, are you asking?
The answer is to that is that when a body has excessive amounts of fat, the liver needs to work harder. And the more the liver needs to work harder, there is a more chance of inflammation of the liver, that in many cases leads to a fatty liver. The fatty tissues around the liver causes it to work less efficiently, and some of its daily routine is damaged. And when this happens, it releases excessive liver enzymes, such as ALT or AST (more details about liver enzymes can be found in Understanding liver function blood test results article).
Therefor, the more fat you loss, following a weight loss, the liver will simply work better, and will have to release decreased, and hopefully normal, amounts of liver enzymes into your blood stream.
