Quit a drug addiction, smoking (harder than drugs), salt, beef and pork, caffeine, and a couple other things. But the one thing so ridiculously impossible to even contemplate, never mind accomplishing, is quitting sugar. We're talking hard core rehab, bed raising scene from the Exorcist type intervention. And I don't even like cakes, pastries, candy, or ice cream, that much. Sprite and Ginger Ale though ... oh, and Ambrosia, the ancient Greek word for MoonPie.

Evangelin posted about this youtube video. "Sugar , the bitter truth"
It is a long video , but what I did not know before watching it is that
High Fructose Corn Syrup metabolically is as bad as alcohol for the liver.
The majority of processed foods we find in the supermarket have High Fructose
Corn Syrup which can majorly effect obesity and fatty liver.

If you are overweight or obese, do what you can to gradually lose weight -- no more than 1 or 2 pounds a week. A recent study showed that weight loss of at least 9% over a period of months can help reverse NASH. Even less weight loss than this can help lessen buildup of fat in the liver.

Eat a balanced and healthy diet and increase your physical activity. In addition to limiting calories, avoid diets rich in refined, rapidly digested carbohydrates. This includes limiting foods such as white bread, white rice, and concentrated sugar.

Avoiding unnecessary medications can also help slow or reverse the disease. Clinical trials are also looking at the effectiveness of certain antioxidants and newer diabetes medications in treating fatty liver disease. This is because of the disease's link to oxidative stress and diabetes. These include:

Vitamin E
Selenium
Betaine
Metformin
Rosiglitazone
Pioglitazone
