Hello.Fatty liver is a chronic pathology.The pathology is an excessive accumulation of fat in the liver.Causes related to fatty liver are obesity, alcohol consumption and high cholesterol levels. People with fatty liver must control your weight, avoid alcohol, reduce the intake of fatty foods and practice physical exercise. If you follow the referred recommendations and your doctor controls your cholesterol, GOT and GPT levels in blood ,probably you will avoid the appearance of fatty liver complications.I wish you good health.
