Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

Fatty liver is a common cause of liver disease.

It would respond best to medications such statins and metformin. Statins are normally used for high cholesterol.

In addition to the medications mentioned a change in diet and increase in activity would also be helpful.
In terms of diet, a decrease in carbohydrates would be helpful. Excess carbohydrates are stored as fat and it has been found that a decrease in carbs causes either an improvement or slows the progression of fatty liver disease.

I hope this helps
