This number is staggering!   More:

30% of adults and 10% of children have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or NASH (non-alcoholic steatorrheic [fatty] hepatitis).

This number is also interesting!  And I know I have a sweet tooth & I think a little over weight!  Here is the truth, I weighed myself this morning - 5'9" - 188 lbs.  According to the charts - 

Here is a BMI Calculator

My BMI - 27.8, so and over 25 is overweight!  So, what should I be for 5'9"?  168 pounds!  TWENTY TO LOSE!

Some of the symptoms:
