I was told that losing weight and eating a better diet...my liver function is good.

Maybe from excessive carbohydrate consumption?

What does Milk Thistle/Dandelion do? I do not eat sweets nor use salt but I do love bread. That is my weakness and i also eat small meals. Thanks for your suggestions. Appreciate it.

Weird usually your ALT in blood work is elevated like mine if non alcoholic fatty liver . Strange it’s normal and CT scan showed it ?
Maybe get bloodwork redone and see if ALT has gone up ⬆️?

You make a great point but my blood work is normal. Go figure!

Was the diagnosis of NAFLD based on the size of your liver in the CT scan? If that was the case, you might look up the diets used prior to bariatric/gastric bypass surgery. That’s the diet used to shrink the liver so it is not in the way during surgery. You just follow it for a few weeks. Every clinic seems to have a slightly different one.

And FYI, most commercial bread has a lot of sodium. And today bread usually has twice the carbs it did years ago.

The size of my liver is normal. Thanks for the tip on the diets you mentioned. I will research them.

There is a NASH support group that might answer questions. Fatty liver disease is progressing so changing diet and exercise will help your liver. Good luck. I had NAFLD which progressed to NASH

Where is the NASH support group? I cannot find it here. Just reading about NASH is a bit frightening. I have had no surgeries and was just diagnosed. I have no idea at what percentage it is fatty but I do not want to be alarmist and hope it is not too bad. But thanks for the recommendation although you are scaring me.

My husband had it & he is diabetic… I am not, but it helped me also…He was maxed out on his diabetic meds including insulin & thought his diabetes was controlled by meds, but his diet was anything, but good….his blood sugars were decent & that’s why he thought he was ok…. He carried most of his weight in his belly….and told everyone it was all muscle….lol…. He was insulin resistant…… We both went on a high protein & fat, low carb way to eat….no processed foods (got them out of the pantry) no sugar, no breads, pastas, or cereal…. Ate lowest carb veggies & fruit. No bananas or no potatoes….. we replace the sugar with fat for the energy that our body needs…. ( It didn’t happen overnight, but eventually got easier & helped tremendously…..He lowered his diabetic meds & off his insulin now…. We both lost our spare tire & weight, even though we didn’t need to lose that much. We lost excess fat…. We both dropped our pant sizes…. It’s not that we never spurge, but go right at it again, because sugar is very very addicting. Once my husband went off his insulin he had to continue eating low carb because of no help that insulin was doing even though it was a false help. Go on YouTube & check out carnivore/ keto eating…. Dr Ken Berry & Dr Chaffee, Dr Shawn Baker, Dr Jason Fung… They all talk about how meds are over prescribed & diet is the better way to help the body produce a healthier way of life…. Good Luck….
