• Key risk factors are addressed without a biopsy
• Lack of effective therapy, cost and risk.

71
1. Eat less fat, especially saturated fat
2. Keep blood sugars normal
3. Drink less or no alcohol
4. Exercise regularly
5. Match kilojoules to energy requirement
6. Don’t smoke
72
Control of risk factors
• Decrease of 10% in BMI
• Diet as already discussed
• Aerobic exercise 30 min x 6 days /week
• Statins where indicated
73
If no response after six months
• Pt is at higher risk of fibrosis
• Mayo Score or Liver biopsy to distinguish
Steatosis versus steatohepatitis - prognosis
• Add non-evidence based therapy
74
• Exercise is the cornerstone of therapy
• Benefit of exercise even without weight 
• Biochemical improvement – liver enzymes
• Variable histological improvement
• Variable effect on progression to cirrhosis.

• Evidence of efficacy in NASH/NAFLD is equivocal
• 300 mg bid or 10 mg/kg in two divided doses PO
• Can be given up to 12 to 24 mon.; depends on response
• Cholestasis, PBC, PSC, Acute viral hepatitis, HBV, HCV
• Chronic hepatitis, Alcoholic liver disease
• Dissolution of cholesterol microliths / gallstones
• Class E drug in pregnancy (not to be used in COP)
80
• NAFLD and NASH may resolve with weight loss
• Liver fat content ; No effect on fibrosis & Inflam.
• Diet and exercise improve insulin sensitivity,
increase oxidative capacity and utilization of FFAs
• Weight loss has clear benefits for CV risk & T2DM

1. There is general agreement that our modern
sedentary lifestyles have much to answer for
in the etiology of obesity.
2. There is an important role for exercise in the
management of overweight combined with
dietary control.
89
• After the initiation of exercise
• Energy requirements increase immediately.
• The resting metabolic rate increases.
• Exercise must be maintained
• Lest the metabolic rate will drop.
90
• Combined physical activity with proper diet Rx
• Regular physical over a period of time results in
Improvements in body fat content, visceral fat
•  HDL-cholesterol  LDL cholesterol
•  Triglycerides and  Blood sugar
91
• It is the main cause of  liver enzymes; Isn’t that benign
• Spectrum of disease – NAFLD – NASH – Cirrhosis - HCC
• Insulin resistance, MS are the key pathogenic features
• DM, TG, Non fatty abdominal obesity, increasing age
• It is a marker of CV Risk. Rx. improve insulin sensitivity
• Modify underlying metabolic risk factors – diet, exercise
• Use Mayo scoring to predict NASH (fibrosis). No biopsy
