Thanks doctor. I was actively involved in sports for many years until Covid. I’m 34. I’m quite fit but I got diagnosed with stage 2 hepatomegaly (NAFLD) in January 2023. I also had HB1AC of 12 which was a shocker. I started walking and exercising. I went on a diet program under a dietician and after 3 months my LFT was normal. I’m still on and off with my diabetic condition but I’m sure I’ll pull things back. I have a family history of diabetes. It’s the night shift that is causing the damage and I’m working to get back to regular life. Thanks for your contributions. They are extremely helpful! Keep well!

HI All I am from India. one week before I got diagnosed with fatty liver grade 2. My ALT was 82 and AST was 55. I started IM fasting (16:8 window) with low carb diet (50 grams per day). I cut Sugar, fried items, and cabs from my diet. I consumed more veggies and few fewer sweet fruits (orange, apple, kiwis). I took fruits int the morning, boiled veggie and one jawar roti in lunch. I took boiled veggies in dinner. Also, I started brisk walking 10 kms everyday (5 Kms in the morning and 5 Kms in the evening). my ALT and AST are borderline normal within 10 days currently my ALT is 55 and AST is 35. it will further go down as I progresses. Sugar is the culprit.

What concerns is the Albumin/Globulin ratio is always above 1.5. This year test showed 1.67 with Albumin 4.5 and Globulin at 2.70 g/dl. His fasting HBA1c is 5.3%.
