The Steatotic Liver Foundation was formerly known as the Fatty Liver Foundation.  The name was changed when the name of the disease was changed from fatty to steatotic as a broader category expanded to include alcohol as a cause.

We Advocate Early Screening

Typically, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are silent diseases. They have no symptoms. Even if cirrhosis has developed, there are often no symptoms until the liver has become so damaged that the only option is a liver transplant.

There is currently a quick, easy and economical method to screen for fatty liver disease called transient elastography. The Fatty Liver Foundation is championing a nationwide program to provide liver screening services. Learn about screening →
