Is fatty liver contagious to humans?

Fatty liver is a common disease, but it is not a contagious disease. Generally, fatty liver cannot be transmitted to other people. Of course, since fatty liver poses a relatively high risk to patients, patients must pay attention to all aspects of their body conditioning during the onset and after treatment. Next, I will introduce to you the conditioning methods for fatty liver!

1. Exercise principles

As long as fat is formed in the liver, it is not easy to be excreted from the body. Choosing drugs such as will only be able to clear the fat in the blood, but will have no effect on the fat in the liver. For mild fatty liver, you can choose to exercise to protect your liver. You need to exercise for 40 minutes to an hour a day to break down the fat in the liver, but you must persist for more than half a year to see obvious results. So far, choosing only a single therapy to treat fatty liver cannot completely eliminate the disease. It is best to adopt an integrated therapy that combines medication with exercise, a good diet structure, and a good mentality. For mild to moderate fatty liver, try to use less or no medication to reduce the side effects of medication on the body.

2. Eliminate the cause of disease

There are many factors that cause fatty liver, such as being too obese, suffering from diabetes, hepatitis, overnutrition, chronic alcoholism, drug-induced liver damage, etc. No matter what the cause of fatty liver is, early treatment can cure the disease. If strong intervention is implemented and persisted for a long time, the fat deposited in the liver can be restored to normal. If you have recently developed fatty liver, you must quit drinking. If the fatty liver is caused by malnutrition, you must take in a comprehensive amount of nutrients for your body. If you have fatty liver due to obesity, you must control your weight. If you have diabetic fatty liver, you must actively treat the primary disease. If you have drug-induced fatty liver, you must not take drugs that are toxic to the liver. Only by eliminating the cause in time can the condition be alleviated.

3. Dietary principles

Patients with fatty liver should choose high-protein, low-fat foods such as eggs, soy products, milk, etc., eat less fatty meat and animal offal, avoid frying, choose vegetable oils with unsaturated fatty acids, and strictly limit sugar intake, because carbohydrates will produce chemical reactions in the liver and be directly converted into fat. The fatter the body, the higher the risk of developing fatty liver.
