Treatment involves a change in diet and increase in activity level.
In terms of diet, it has been found that the use of a increase amounts of carbohydrates is associated with fatty liver. Treatment would involve an increase in fruits and vegetables, elimination of sodas/fruit juices, decrease in rice/pasta/bread/biscuits.
