SUFFERING FROM FATTY LIVER?
Understand Root Cause of Fatty Liver & take control of it.
Fatty liver, affecting over 40% of the global population, occurs due to fat deposits in the liver. The condition can be caused by excess alcohol (Alcoholic Fatty Liver) or high fructose intake (Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver).
While the liver can handle 20-25ml of alcohol or 20-25g of sugar daily, modern lifestyles often exceed these limits, overwhelming the liver's ability to heal itself.
Recommended Tests
With AI, we can predict any potential health risk and prevent it at the earliest
AST
An aspartate aminotransferase (AST) test, also known as a serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) test, measures the level of AST in your blood
GGT
A gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) test measures the level of the enzyme GGT in your blood.
ALT
An alanine transaminase (ALT) test, also known as an alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or serum glutamic- pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) test, measures the level of the ALT enzyme in the blood
Serum Bilirubin
A serum bilirubin test, also known as a bilirubin blood test, measures the level of bilirubin in a person's blood. A healthy liver can normally get rid of bilirubin, but when there are liver problems, it can build up to unhealthy levels.
How to combat Fatty Liver?
This can be personalized to you based on your blood test
- Limiting the fructose and alcohol consumption to not more than 20-25g or ml. Both should be avoided together. You can have alcohol once a week, and fructose once a week on any other day if you cannot eliminate them from your diet completely owing to urges and pangs.
- Consume plenty of cruciferous vegetables and bitter vegetables like Bitter Gourd while avoiding carbohydrates. For clearing fatty deposits, liver needs a balanced sugar profile in the blood and having a low carbohydrate diet would enable the liver to have a favourable environment to cleanse itself of excess fats
- Milk thistle: This supplement is a potent antioxidant that can help protect the liver and improve its function. The typical dosage is 150-250 mg, taken two or three times a day.
- Turmeric: Turmeric contains a compound called curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory properties and can help protect the liver. The recommended dosage is 400-600 mg per day
- Tocotrienols: Tocotrienol E has been shown to help reduce inflammation and improve liver function. The recommended dosage is 400 IU per day.
- Artichoke extract: Artichoke extract can help stimulate the production of bile, which is necessary for the digestion of fats. The recommended dosage is 500 - 1,500 mg per day

Main causes include obesity, insulin resistance, high blood sugar, high triglycerides, and excessive alcohol (for alcoholic fatty liver). Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly common due to sedentary lifestyles and poor diet.
Key markers include ALT, AST, GGT, ALP (liver enzymes), lipid profile, fasting glucose, and insulin. Fibroscan or ultrasound may be needed for confirmation. eGenome tracks all liver function markers.
Yes! Fatty liver is reversible through weight loss (10% of body weight), exercise, reduced sugar and carb intake, and avoiding alcohol. Liver can regenerate and return to normal with sustained lifestyle changes.
Normal ALT is typically 7-56 U/L, but optimal is below 30 U/L. Elevated ALT indicates liver cell damage. AST/ALT ratio helps distinguish between different liver conditions.
Avoid alcohol, sugary foods and drinks, refined carbs, fried foods, and processed meats. Limit saturated fats. Focus on vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats like omega-3s.
The health plan offers a measurable improvement in blood-based biomarkers of your critical organs and measurable reduction in any potential health risks.
Blood test every six months covering 78-vital health parameters, vulnerability to critical illnesses and percentile score, biological age determination, and diet, lifestyle, and supplement recommendations every month.
The following tests are included in the health plan which are enough to understand your precise health status: 1. Lipid profile 2. Liver function test 3. Complete hemogram 4. Kidney function test 5. HbA1c 6. Hscrp 7. TSH 8. Vitamin D 9. Potassium 10. Magnesium 11. Vitamin B12 12. IGF-1 Somatomedin C 13. Blood Glucose – Fasting 14. Insulin – Fasting 15. ApoB
Our AI foundational model is an advanced system, trained in understanding deep metabolic pathways in order to draw the right correlations between the current health status, potential health risks. Based on near infinite learning of the AI model, it can easily recommend solutions to reverse the health risks.
We recommend continuing with the plan for at least 1-year in order to get quantifiable improvement in health. This means that the diet, lifestyle, and supplement recommendations are complied with.
