824. Fatty Liver and Heart Disease

The Doctor Is In Podcast - A podcast by Dr. A.W. Martin and Dr. A.P. Martin

Every now and then, Dr. Martin brings you a knock your socks off moment, and this is one of them. The American Heart Association is now linking non-alcoholic fatty liver to heart disease! Dr. Martin says this is maybe the first time he’s seen the connection, at least in mainstream medicine. In the 70’s there was cirrhosis of the liver, but never non-alcoholic fatty liver. The study goes on to say that 1 in 4 people, including children, in North America have a fatty liver. Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to understand why the linking of fatty liver and heart disease is so significant!
