The only treatment for fatty live grade 1 is lifestyle modification which involves dietary changes and physical activities. No medications are available on this planet to treat fatty liver. I have reversed more than 300 patients with diet and exercise...
The strange thing is most of the fatty liver develops due to either a high calorie diet or due to excessive carbohydrates.
