Ayurvedic Treatment for Fatty Liver in Kolkata

Fatty liver occurs when excess fat builds up in the liver, often due to excess weight, poor diet, a sedentary lifestyle, diabetes, high cholesterol or alcohol use. Many people notice no symptoms early on — which is exactly why attention to diet, lifestyle and metabolic health matters sooner rather than later.

The Ayurvedic Perspective

Ayurveda does not use the modern term “fatty liver”, but conditions involving impaired metabolism and excess fat accumulation can be understood through Agni, Meda Dhatu, Kapha and Yakrit (liver).

Poor digestion, overeating, heavy and oily foods, lack of physical activity and metabolic imbalance may contribute to the accumulation of excess Meda.

Agni

The digestive fire. When weak or irregular, food is not metabolised properly.

Meda Dhatu

The fat tissue of the body — its excess accumulation is central to this condition.

Kapha

The bodily energy linked to structure and heaviness; imbalance favours fat build-up.

Yakrit

The liver — the organ where this excess Meda is understood to accumulate.

Symptoms

Fatty liver often causes no symptoms in its early stages, which is why both everyday and Ayurvedic signs are worth paying attention to.

Symptoms alone cannot confirm Fatty liver. Diagnosis may require blood tests, ultrasound or other medical evaluation.
