How Can One Cure Severe Fatty Liver?

I have been diagnosed with severe fatty liver. I am not a heavy/daily alcohol drinker. I may drink a bottle of wine on weekends only, I do not consume alcohol during the weekdays. I do have a large tummy which is too big for my height. I weight 215 pounds and I am only 5feet 7inches tall. The pain is on right side just below rib cage. I was a long user of lithium on and off for 6 to 8 months per year to control my cluster headaches. My monthly blood work showed no sign of toxicity while on the medication. I do not take illegal drugs of any kind and usually only take Advil for aches and pain. I am currently taking a herbal product called Himalayan diversicare, 2 capsules daily is this ok or should milk thistle work better. Thank you.

Hello,

The mentioned medication also work well in fatty liver. Milk thrustle is also having the same benefit as that of mentioned medication. But for fatty liver additionally, ursodeoxycholic acid tablet and vitamin E capsule should be prescribed as well.

You have to do lifestyle modification as well to fight with fatty liver. It's advisable to do regular 30 minutes to one-hour active exercises.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
