View allI'm dealing with grade 2 fatty liver, and I usually drink from moderate to heavy. They've mentioned it's a reversible condition but that it'll take time. I'm also a bit overweight. Can you let me know how long it might take for my liver to recover? And what kind of precautions should I be taking to help speed up the recovery?
Fatty liver grade 2 can be reversed with lifestyle changes, but it will take time, typically several months to a year. Focus on cutting out alcohol, adopting a balanced, low-fat diet, exercising regularly, and losing weight gradually to support liver health and recovery. Be patient, as consistent effort will make a difference over time.
