Suggest edit

A healthy weight is essential for liver health because excess body fat, particularly visceral fat around the abdomen, increases the risk of fatty liver disease. This extra fat can lead to insulin resistance, causing the liver to store more fat.

Over time, the accumulation of fat in the liver can lead to inflammation, fibrosis (scarring), and eventually more severe liver diseases like Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) or cirrhosis.
