What Is Hepatic Steatosis?
6. How Is NAFLD Prevented?
Leading a healthy lifestyle is the best way to prevent NAFLD. Those who are overweight or obese can reduce their risk of the disease by losing weight. If you are a healthy weight, maintaining that weight is important in preventing hepatic steatosis.
A healthy lifestyle includes eating a balanced and nutritious diet. Eat meats in moderation and avoid high-fat food sources. Instead, opt for nutrient-dense plant-based foods as your dominant food type. This includes leafy greens, cruciferous and other vegetables, whole grains, fruits and healthy fats. Engage in moderate exercise several days a week for 30 minutes each session.
