"Fatty Liver Disease: A Risk for Slim Individuals Too"
Slim people can also be at risk of fatty liver disease due to alcohol consumption, lack of muscle mass, genetic predisposition, or metabolic disorders. Fatty liver disease is the deposition of fat in the liver due to obesity or abnormal visceral fat. Those who are genetically predisposed to fatty liver can have it even with a normal BMI and are more likely to progress to liver cirrhosis and other liver-related complications. It is important to investigate the cause of fatty liver in slim people to prevent liver-related complications.
