Dr. Pavan Dhoble, a gastroenterologist at PD Hinduja Hospital & Medical Research Centre in Mahim, Mumbai, has raised concerns about the impact of modern lifestyle choices on liver health, particularly among individuals in their 20s and 30s. He emphasizes that while many associate liver failure with heavy drinking, 'social' drinking habits and high sugar consumption from soft drinks and snacks are increasingly leading to conditions like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Dr. Dhoble warns that unregulated wellness products, including protein powders and fat burners, can also contain harmful substances that may cause liver inflammation. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as lack of physical activity, irregular eating patterns, and chronic stress can disrupt liver function. He advocates for early intervention through simple lifestyle changes, such as balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and mindful alcohol consumption, to protect liver health and ensure better overall well-being in the future.
