New Study Identifies the Optimal Exercise Dose for Reducing Fatty Liver

Fatty liver disease affects a large portion of adults worldwide and often develops silently, increasing the risk of liver damage, heart disease and shortened life expectancy if metabolic health isn't improved Consistent exercise reduces liver fat even without weight loss, improving blood sugar control, cardiovascular fitness and overall metabolic function Meaningful liver fat reduction begins at about 20 to 25 minutes of moderate activity five days weekly, with the strongest efficiency gains occurring around 150 to 160 minutes per week Combining aerobic exercise with strength training produces greater liver and metabolic improvements than performing either type of exercise alone Eliminating harmful dietary fats, increasing key nutrients that support liver fat removal and maintaining regular physical activity directly address the metabolic overload that drives fatty liver disease
