HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it may be due to non alcoholic fatty liver disease.
At the moment , this is one of the more common causes, of liver disease. It is the possible cause of your increase.
This is due to the build up of fat in the liver, not related to alcohol use.
Healthy diet changes, increased activity and in some cases medication (Eg statins) can help slow the progression
I hope this helps
