Fatty liver is an abnormal accumulation of certain fats (triglycerides) inside liver cells. Different studies have shown that the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver can reach up to 74% in obese, being 4.6 times more common in patients defined as people with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 30 kg / m2. Approximately a quarter of the adult American population is obese, and it is estimated that 19% of obese people have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (EHNA).

Even in patients with normal body mass index, but with a pattern of central obesity, a higher incidence of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver is described.

Based on statistics from the United States in 2000, it is estimated that in this country there are more than 30 million obese people with HGNA, and 8.6 million of them would have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (HNA).

It indicates that type II diabetes mellitus (DM) affects about 8% of the American population, and it is estimated that about 50% of these have hepatic steatosis. When patients have coexistence of DM and obesity, the risk of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver increases considerably. 100% in one study had some degree of steatosis, 50% EHNA, and 19% had histologically documented cirrhosis.
