Summary

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a global public health concern, and the leading cause of chronic liver disease, especially in developed countries. NAFLD is characterized by lipid accumulation in the liver not attributed to other causes. Lifestyle interventions, including dietary modification and exercise, remain the cornerstone of NAFLD treatment. Pharmacological treatments aimed primarily at improving liver disease should generally be limited to those with biopsy-proven NASH and fibrosis.
