Don’t wait to start your liver care journey, staying healthy isn’t always easy, but you don’t have to do it alone. Through our Liver Health Initiative, you can find the care you need to improve your liver health and reduce your risk for liver disease.
About 1 in 4 American adults have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and about 20% of those individuals are affected by nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NASH occurs when a fatty liver becomes inflamed and damaged. Years of consuming high sugar levels, fatty foods, and insufficient physical exercise can lead to a fatty liver. With more and more Americans developing fatty liver disease each year, the need for educational and interventional programs increases.

It’s never too late to start. The liver is a resilient organ that can regenerate itself. Our MHI provides resources to improve metabolic health, which can help prevent, stop, or even reverse fatty liver disease.
Metabolic health refers to having ideal blood sugar levels, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, blood pressure, and waist circumference without the use of medications. These factors are directly related to a person’s risk for heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. Poor metabolic health can lead to NASH, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and more.
The Liver Health Initiative will provide the following to area participants:
- Free physician exam
- Free lab evaluations: includes blood count, liver blood tests, electrolytes, blood cholesterol hemoglobin A1c
- Free fibroscan: fibroscans quickly and painlessly scan your liver to help detect fat and liver fibrosis that may cause cirrhosis and liver failure
- Educational counseling and informational material to reduce or reverse fatty liver disease
- Referral to area internists and gastroenterologists for ongoing medical care
