The name of the disease has recently changed to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), but many people continue to use its former name, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), or simply call it fatty liver disease. The third edition provides up-to-date research-backed information on managing and reversing steatosis. The book's nutrition program includes meal plans and over 100 easy-to-prepare recipes.
