The most frustrating thing about being diagnosed with NASH for me was when the doctor just said: "you have cirrhosis, sorry we have no treatment". I eventually learned that really meant we have no pill, but the idea that we have no treatment is just wrong. Fatty liver responds to diet and eating things that make it work as little as possible. Logical but not something that was really talked about when I first learned I had a problem.
What bugs you the most?

It was further frustrating for me that doctors told me to consume fruits thinking fruits were helpful for my liver whereas fruits contains fructose which is alcohol without fuzz .
Hi Robyn just a clarification the fructose in fruit is the same. The difference is that the fruit has food value so that you can think of it as compensating but a less sweet fruit will be better for you than a very sweet one. Being fruit doesn't change the basic bio chemistry that your liver has to do
There are many opinions and some have merit but some are not good. We try to provide a science based approach and offer the fact that I have changed my stage 4 cirrhosis to a stage 3 fibrosis using the methods in our web site. Other people may respond differently as we are all different. But read the science and decide for yourself
