Fatty liver disease has become one of the most common liver disorders in India in recent years. In 2026, changing lifestyles, poor dietary habits, rising obesity, diabetes, and stress have made fatty liver a growing health concern across all age groups. Medically known as hepatic steatosis, fatty liver occurs when excess fat accumulates in liver cells. While a small amount of fat in the liver is normal, excess fat can lead to inflammation, liver damage, and serious complications if left untreated.
