Are you worried that you may have Fatty Liver? Fatty Liver Disease is on the rise, and the problem is that it is not always easy to spot when YOU might have it. In this video, I am going to deep dive into the IMPORTANT signs and symptoms to look out for. I will explain the Early Signs and RED FLAGS, which IF YOU have need to be URGENTLY addressed.
WHAT IS FATTY LIVER DISEASE?
When we have extra fat in our body, it starts to get stored around our liver. The technical name is Non- alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
There are 4 stages of Fatty Liver Disease:
State 1 = Early Fatty Liver
Stage 2 = Non – Alcoholic Steato – Hepatitis (NASH)
Stage 3 = Fibrosis
Stage 4 = Cirrhosis
Fatty Liver Disease is very difficult to pick up before it damages the liver. So it is critical to look out for the EARLY SIGNS and SYMPTOMS:
Blood test that are high (ALT/AST) for Fatty Liver Disease
Fatigue and Weakness
Discomfort on the right side of your abdomen
Unexplained Weight Loss
If the early signs and symptoms pass unnoticed, there are some LATE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS to look out for:
Itchy Skin
Fluid in your legs or abdomen
Jaundice
Loss of Libido
Bruising Easily
Dark urine
Pale Stools
There are two RED FLAGS and symptoms that YOU should NEVER IGNORE:
Tarry Black poos
Vomiting blood
If you have any of these WORRYING SIGNS, please seek medical attention immediately.
