Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) — now also called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) — is a condition in which excess fat accumulates in liver cells in people who drink little or no alcohol. It is closely linked to obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and insulin resistance, and ranges from simple fatty liver (easily reversible) to more serious forms involving inflammation, scarring, and, in a small proportion of patients, cirrhosis. Because the liver rarely causes symptoms until disease is advanced, many people are diagnosed incidentally during routine blood tests or imaging. Management is highly individualised: lifestyle change and metabolic risk-factor control are the foundation for everyone, while medications, advanced non-invasive monitoring, and — in severe obesity — bariatric surgery are added when needed. The goal is to halt or reverse progression, protect the heart and kidneys, and, for those with advanced disease, prevent complications through specialist hepatology follow-up.
A structured workup — blood tests, FibroScan, and specialist review — to confirm the diagnosis, stage the severity of liver disease, and map out a personalised management plan.
