Fatty liver disease is becoming increasingly common among younger people.

VTV.vn - Fatty liver disease is on the rise among young people due to being overweight, unhealthy eating habits, and lack of exercise. The disease is insidious but can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.

Regular health checkups help detect and treat fatty liver disease early and effectively.

Fatty liver disease is a condition characterized by excessive fat accumulation in the liver, affecting the body's metabolic and detoxification functions. Doctors at Hoai Nhai General Hospital ( Hanoi ) report that the disease is becoming more prevalent among younger people due to increasingly unhealthy lifestyles.

Previously, fatty liver disease was commonly seen in middle-aged people or those who consumed alcohol for extended periods. However, nowadays, overweight and obesity, diets high in fat, processed foods, sugary drinks, and sedentary lifestyles are causing a rapid increase in cases among young people.

Foods that help reduce liver fat should be included in your daily diet.Coffee, fatty fish, olive oil, and berries and fruits rich in vitamin C are foods that can help limit the accumulation of fat in the liver.

High-risk groups include people who are obese, have diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, or who regularly consume alcohol. These are also factors closely associated with metabolic syndrome – a major cause of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

The worrying thing is that the disease often progresses silently. Many people have no obvious symptoms or only vague symptoms such as persistent fatigue, loss of appetite, bloating, indigestion, or mild pain in the right lower rib area, so it is easily overlooked.

According to experts, if left uncontrolled, fatty liver disease can progress to steatohepatitis, hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer. Patients also have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and other metabolic disorders.

Doctors advise people to maintain a healthy weight, increase physical activity, eat plenty of green vegetables and fruits, and limit fatty foods, sugary drinks, and alcohol. At the same time, it is necessary to control blood sugar, blood lipids, and blood pressure well, and have regular health checkups to detect liver abnormalities early, so that timely treatment can be provided.
