Fast food ups risk of fatty liver, study confirms
People with obesity or diabetes who got one-fifth or more of their daily calories from fast food had severely elevated levels of liver fat
People with obesity or diabetes who consume 20% or more of their daily calories from fast food are more likely to develop liver steatosis compared to those who ate less fast food or none, a study shows.
Findings from the research letter published in Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology suggest that even a relatively modest amount of fast food consumption can be harmful.
