Liver health issues affect 38.6% of the Indian population, as reported by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR). The most common conditions are Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Alcoholic Liver Disease (ALD). Notably, even children are increasingly diagnosed with NAFLD. Early signs of liver distress can include persistent fatigue, unexplained weight gain, digestive problems, and changes in blood sugar levels. These symptoms often stem from lifestyle factors such as poor diet, lack of exercise, and environmental influences, rather than alcohol consumption alone. Research indicates that liver disease contributes to approximately 2 million deaths globally each year. To safeguard liver health, individuals should adopt preventive strategies, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and routine medical check-ups. Awareness of these silent signs is crucial for early intervention and maintaining overall health.
