Early Warning Signs of Fatty Liver Disease (You Might Be Ignoring) 🚩

Are you worried that you may have Fatty Liver? Fatty Liver Disease is on the rise, and the problem is that it is not always easy to spot when YOU might have it. In this video, I am going to deep dive into the IMPORTANT signs and symptoms to look out for. I will explain the Early Signs and RED FLAGS, which IF YOU have need to be URGENTLY addressed.

WHAT IS FATTY LIVER DISEASE?
When we have extra fat in our body, it starts to get stored around our liver. The technical name is Non- alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

There are 4 stages of Fatty Liver Disease:
State 1 = Early Fatty Liver
Stage 2 = Non - Alcoholic Steato - Hepatitis (NASH)
Stage 3 = Fibrosis
Stage 4 = Cirrhosis
Fatty Liver Disease is very difficult to pick up before it damages the liver. So it is critical to look out for the EARLY SIGNS and SYMPTOMS:

* Blood test that are high (ALT/AST) for Fatty Liver Disease
* Fatigue and Weakness
* Discomfort on the right side of your abdomen
* Unexplained Weight Loss

If the early signs and symptoms pass unnoticed, there are some LATE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS to look out for:

* Itchy Skin
* Fluid in your legs or abdomen
* Jaundice
* Loss of Libido
* Bruising Easily
* Dark urine
* Pale Stools

There are two RED FLAGS and symptoms that YOU should NEVER IGNORE:

* Tarry Black poos
* Vomiting blood

If you have any of these WORRYING SIGNS, please seek medical attention immediately.

20 years ago I was diagnosed with mild fatty disease NAFLD.I was not adviced of the seriousness of this condition that could end up in cirrhosis and death.Periodically over the years had the same blood test with same results, still not advised of its seriousness.I'm 73 years old and did not had a blood test for about few years due to Covid.On april 2024 I had a bothersome right side toraxic pain that reflected to my shouder.Blood test came out with NASH3, a stage next to cirrhosis.As you could imagine I'm not to happy .I hope is not too late, I started a crash diet and a change of life style reflecting about the past and the choices I could had made.

The way you delivered this is very good. Your voice is very soothing, but still you are getting the info across...well done x

One of my liver enzymes was elevated, but not off the chart. I had an abdomen ultrasound and everything was fine. But, I completely quit alcohol and switched to a whole food diet, which enables me to avoid all the bad stuff. No highly glycemic and/or processed food, sugar or seed oils. Also, I get to avoid almost all preservatives. My blood work has been stellar for three years.

When I was a child doctors were God's deputy on earth, a man you needed to approach with great caution. Now it's different; last week at the hospital with having my mom operated: "This was great fun!" mom chirped - she at 94 - after meeting all nice ppl. Now this doc in the vid is a great example, like one's best mate. Many thanks!

I found a good friend of mine dead and for awhile i was trying to drink myself to death i didnt want to live anymore when my dad was diagnosed with chirrosis i decided my purpose in life was to stop drinking and try and spend as much time with him as i could when i had to go in for a swollen liver and pancreaus and they found fatty liver. dad passed away after a long battle with chirrosis and i miss him like hell everyday i fight with that urge to drink myself to death but ive seen where it goes and how horrible it is to die that way he was only 58 years old.

Carbs and sugar is the simple answer for fatty liver.

[antonlerm]

Dr this is the best video This is the only video that divide all the different stages So more clarity Thanks

[mariakhan]

Thank you for such detailed video! Feeling a lot of similar symptoms but unfortunately if you’re a Canadian you think more than twice cuz of the horrid wait hours in ER 😢

[MarabelleBlue]

So. Now I’m more scare than before. ☹️ I have to continue watching later. Maybe on the treadmill.

[antoniadagostaro]

I really enjoy your sense of humor in such a deep subject. You have a relatable, informative delivery. Thank you very much .I will be watching regularly. Antonia

[anina.toskani]

I love your clear way to explain things. It is very helpful to observe signs of the body.

[christophelewis]

Thank you Doctor. This video was extremely helpful and provided me with the knowledge to express my symptoms to my doctors🙏🏾

[damlasminiatures]

I ve been experiencing pain especially after I eat I believe all gallbladder, liver and my lower back hurt a little by my kidneys when I woke up today. My labs show I do have some fatty liver but my doctor doesn't even mention anything about them. Been on methadone 7 Years and levothyroxine 2 years. I just changed my diet like 2 to 3 weeks ago. Barbara oneill says dandelion is great for liver detox and castor oil compress externally great for many things as well. I don't have other symptoms but I m mad at my doctor for leaving it to me to figure out and she s still brushing off like it's nothing. Our health care system is so corrupt. No sex drive either

[AudioTruyenLangQue]

Thank you so much for your help and advice,
I really appreciate your job. I wish you happiness and peace under the sky of prosperity. All the best.
Take care and have a good time

General question: Why do doctors sometimes say all your blood tests are fine when you have a level that's listed as out of range? Or, even more fun, when you have several out of range but he only calls out one of them? As an example, my BUN/creatine ratio is 26. Could you do a video on this (or do you have one up already)?

[expressivejewels]

This was eye opening. I have had issues with fatigue, swelling of the feet, and sometimes legs, (as shown in your video) and abdomen. when this happens I do get shortness of breath. I get sudden pain at times in my right upper side and have developed high blood pressure that rises suddenly.
Here's the kicker Dr's have tested me for everything and find nothing BUT I looked back on a cat scan from 2022 and in the report under Findings was this Liver: Hepatic steatosis
Im a non drinker could this be my issue?

[moirai]

I have Vasculitus, systemic inflammation effects all sizes of blood vessels. Years of this has caused organ damage. My liver is nearing the stage 4 I think. Everything is effected, Chronic pain, mobility issues, digestion issues absolutely everything doesn't work. Eating right, diets, medication, supplements and natural remedies do.not.work. it's been progressive. This last year I've developed diabetes 2 with insulin resistance. Sometimes you get sick and it eventually does you in. It's life long managed care. I was going to try infusion treatment but after trying get help with cost medication, I couldn't get the manufacturer discount of the 1200.00 a single shot every 6 weeks to a 5.00 copay, because I had a Medicare Advantage plan not a corporate insurance plan. So my body fails no matter what I have tried. So take it seriously and get treatment early. Try to stop the damage or at least slow it down.
