Poor liver function may increase your chances of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, heart attacks and strokes. If the liver does not regulate fat metabolism efficiently, weight gain tends to occur around the abdominal area and a protuberant abdomen (pot belly) will develop. – Sandra Cabot, MD.
That’s one to throw back to my GP about my huge weight gain. He always says it’s nothing.
