A healthy liver contains a small amount of fat; however, it becomes a problem when it reaches 5% to 10% of the weight of the liver, which is the cause of the common condition known as fatty liver disease.
Most of the time, fatty liver disease doesn’t cause any serious issues or interfere with normal liver function, but for 7-30% of those who have the condition, it worsens over time. Fatty liver disease progresses through three stages: a. the liver becomes inflamed, which damages its tissue; b. scar tissue forms where the liver is damaged, which is known as fibrosis; c. extensive scar tissue replaces healthy tissues, which results in cirrhosis of the liver.
