Eating for Healthy Weight

The number of calories a person eats is important. In addition to being physically active, all adults should follow a healthy eating plan. Try to consume fewer calories than the body burns each day. Remember that the balance of the number of calories-in versus the number of calories-out affects weight. A person may wish to speak with a health care provider, a fitness specialist or a registered dietitian about the amount of activity and calories suitable for a diet. A person can also use the My Pyramid educational tool from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to find out how much activity and how many calories the individual needs. The My Pyramid website includes two additional tools: My Pyramid Tracker and My Pyramid Meal Planner, which allow users to enter information such as age, gender, weight and current activity level to determine a personalized physical activity and eating plan. The website also provides information related to physical activity and nutrition. It is available at http://www.mypyramid.gov.

Fatty Liver Disease

Fatty liver disease occurs when fat builds up in the liver cells and causes injury and inflammation in the liver. Fat build up can sometimes lead to severe liver damage, cirrhosis, a build up of scar tissue that blocks proper blood flow in the liver or even liver failure. Fatty liver disease is like alcoholic liver damage and can occur in people who drink little or no alcohol.
People who have diabetes or pre-diabetes, which is when blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not yet in the diabetic range, are more likely to have fatty liver disease than people without these conditions. Overweight people are more likely to develop diabetes. Doctors do not know why some people who are overweight or diabetic get fatty liver disease and others do not.
Losing weight and being physically active can help control the blood sugar levels in the body. Losing weight can also reduce the build up of fat in the liver and prevent further injury. People with fatty liver disease should avoid drinking alcohol.
