Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent liver disease in human history. Today, NAFLD affects nearly one-third of our population in Singapore. The prevalence of NAFLD in Asia-Pacific is associated with economic prosperity, with a larger proportion of affected individuals being non-obese compared to those in North America.

NAFLD is caused by having excessive fat buildup in the liver, and can even lead to inflammation and scarring, also known as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an advanced form of NAFLD. Furthermore, concerning research findings have found that liver cancer occurs in NASH, even before there is severe damage to the liver.
