What are the 4 stages of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease?

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease starts with a fatty liver, where there’s fat build-up but no damage.

The second stage is non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). It’s when the build-up of fat starts to cause inflammation in your liver.

Stage 3 is fibrosis, when this inflammation has damaged your liver, but it’s still working well enough.

In stage 4 (cirrhosis), the damage is severe, and your liver begins to stop working properly. This can lead to bleeding, liver failure, liver cancer, or sepsis.
