Grade 3 fatty liver is the most severe stage of fatty liver disease, posing a serious health threat if not treated promptly.

What is grade 3 fatty liver?

According to Dr. Sandeep Kisan Rajput, Head and Associate Professor, Balrog Department (Pediatrics), YMT Medical College, Navi Mumbai (India), fatty liver is a condition in which fat accumulates in the liver cells. If left untreated, this condition can lead to more serious liver diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis or liver cancer. Fatty liver disease is divided into three grades depending on the severity of fat accumulation in the liver.

Grade 3 fatty liver is the most severe stage of the three classification levels. At this stage, fat accounts for more than 30% of the liver weight, causing changes in the structure of liver cells, which can lead to hepatitis, fibrosis, and even liver failure if not treated promptly.

Obesity and overweight: This is the main cause, excess fat accumulates in the liver causing fatty liver.

Diabetes and high cholesterol: People with these conditions are at higher risk of developing fatty liver disease due to metabolic disorders and fat accumulation in the liver.

Unhealthy diet: Processed foods, sugary drinks, and unhealthy fats contribute to increased fat in the liver.

Sedentary lifestyle: Lack of exercise slows down the body's fat metabolism, leading to fat accumulation in the liver.

Certain medications: Certain medications such as corticosteroids and HIV medications can cause fat to build up in the liver.

Management of grade 3 fatty liver disease

To manage grade 3 fatty liver, focus on the following methods, says Dr. Sandeep Kisan Rajput:

Weight management: Losing even a small amount of weight can improve liver function and reduce excess fat.

Healthy diet: Limit sugar, processed foods, and unhealthy fats. Increase vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.
