Even though each person is unique, individuals from various cultures may have distinguishable body types. Accordingly, people of different racial origins tend to deposit fat in different bodily areas. A clinical trial revealed that despite obesity or insulin resistance, fatty liver disease is partially determined by where your body allocates its extra fat. As confirmed by this study, genetic components that vary between racial groups appear to affect the development of fatty liver disease.
Considered to be a major health concern worldwide, fatty liver disease is estimated to affect between a third and a quarter of American adults. If not intercepted with lifestyle changes and/or medical intervention, the continuation of hepatic fat accumulation can lead to liver scarring, cirrhosis or even liver failure. Thus, the scientific community has been hard at work to reveal why fat accumulates in the liver in hopes of better preventing or treating this common problem. Their study on fat distribution between races does not provide a solution to the fatty liver dilemma. However, researchers from Texas have found that genetic and metabolic factors directing fat to its location impact who – and who is not – most likely to develop a fatty liver.
