What should I know about this research?
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic causes of liver disease in the U.S. It’s estimated that about 25% of adults in the U.S. have NAFLD, and many don’t even know it.
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the more severe form of NAFLD. NASH is liver inflammation and damage caused by a buildup of fat in the liver. Inflammation and liver cell damage can cause fibrosis, or scarring, of the liver. Because of the damage, the liver doesn’t work as well as it should.
