Newly diagnosed with NAFLD please help!

I have Hashimotos and one copy of the MTHFR gene and non alcoholic fatty liver disease.

NAFLD.

I'm very worried about this condition! I want to know how to reverse it? Any advice? What do I eat to reverse it?

I'm gluten grain and dairy free.

Many thanks if anyone here can help!

Hello

If you have liver disease eating a good, balanced diet is essential to maintain strength and a healthy weight. Here is the link to information on Diet and Liver Disease on our website, which you may find useful

You might also need to change the food you eat depending on:

the type of liver disease you have

the stage of the damage to your liver - people living with cirrhosis have special dietary needs

any eating difficulties you experience such as loss of appetite or feeling sick (nausea)

If you have already been given dietary advice you should not make changes without first talking to your consultant or dietitian. If you haven’t seen a dietitian, or you have specific questions about your diet, you can ask your doctor to refer you.

Best wishes
