Most all liver patients are told not to take any medications
(over the counter meds, herbs, vitamins, minerals, supplements,
etc) without first checking with their doctor for their approval or
a prescription.
Some of the causes of fatty liver disease is:
alcohol consumption, certain kinds of medications (steriods),
high cholesterol/triglyceride levels, weight gain (obesity),
fast weight loss, malnourishment, diabetes, insulin resistance,
and more.
Fat inside the liver doesn't usually cause a problem
(simple fatty liver), but as the fat continues to build up
inside the liver (which is surrounded by a tight membrane
capsule) it causes pressure in the liver that can damage the
liver cells.When the liver cells become damaged, the immune
system of the patients body will respond to this damage and
cause inflammation to develop inside the liver (this adds to
the pressure there).The liver will enlarge in size and take
on a spongy texture.This is then known as Steatohepatitis.
If you have high cholesterol/triglyceride in your body, the doctor
will first try to put you on a diet to see if this helps to lower it
enough.However, if it still stays higher in range, he may
have to place you on Statin drugs. Statin drugs require
he take frequent blood testing to be sure of their effect on
your liver.Since you stated that you already where diagnosed
with fatty liver...you should take this very
