Diet Chart for Fatty Liver Disease

Fatty liver or hepatic steatosis as the name indicates is a condition in which one’s liver has the extra deposition of fat on the liver. The Majority of the patients don’t manifest any characteristics and often don’t present a serious health issue in them.

Although a few rare cases have reported a damaged liver due to this disease. The most common cause for the development of this disease is alcohol. Overdrinking of alcohol, in due course of time, results in the deposition of fat inside the cells of the liver.

Deposition of fat on liver renders it inefficient and reduces its activity significantly. However non-drinkers are not free from the risk of developing this disease and commonly suffer from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, which can be further stratified in to simple fatty the liver and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Approximately 20% of the patients having nonalcoholic fatty liver suffer from NASH.

Overview According to Ayurveda

In Ayurveda, vitiation of kapha and meda occurs during the early stages of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Inflammatory conditions arise as a result of Pitta’s involvement, which can lead to steatohepatitis.

When the Vata is implicated in the pathophysiology, it can develop to cirrhosis. Reducing digestive irregularities, balancing kapha and Meda, and eliminating obstructions in the circulatory system can all help with improved treatment of this illness.

One of the key causes of metabolic diseases like nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a poor lifestyle and eating habits. Ayurveda medicines and Panchakarma, dietary changes and yoga helps in managing the symptoms of the disease.
