Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease should be treated conservatively. It does not require any prescription of drugs. Follow up with the doctor regularly. Check for the liver enzymes regularly.
Black colored stools are because of bleeding in the upper gut, when blood gets digested it turns the stool black and expels. So a person needs to be investigated further.
Hope this answer makes your understand the importance of further testing.
