Update 1/5/20. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a serious medical condition that occurs when fat accumulates in the liver. While previously occurring mostly in alcoholics, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is now becoming more common in many other people too. These days, those most afflicted with fatty liver disease include diabetics and people who are overweight. Many with this disorder don't even know they have it. In America alone, about 66% of people over age 50 who are diabetic or overweight have NAFLD. Fatty liver disease is projected to be the #1 cause of liver transplants in the future. But it doesn't have to be.
In this video review, I show you the steps to take to reduce your risk of NAFLD – and reverse it. We'll look at lifestyle changes and what I believe are the 3 best supplements to take to help reverse this condition. As always, the emphasis is on research so you can make the best decision for you.

Reversing Fatty Liver Disease
The research shows lifestyle changes can reverse NAFLD. Some of that research also shows supplements can enhance the reversal process. The key thing to remember is simply taking supplements -by themselves-is not enough.
Fatty liver disease is best reversed by using a combination of weight loss, exercise, and, for some, dietary supplements.
