Frequent nighttime awakenings or struggling to get back to sleep? Your liver health might be to blame. According to a recent study, fragmented sleep patterns could be linked to fatty liver disease, suggesting that poor liver health may rob you of restful nights. sleep hygiene education sessions did not show long-term improvements in sleep patterns for those with MASLD. Researchers recommend that ongoing sleep counseling sessions or light therapy, along with other lifestyle changes, may offer better results for improving sleep in patients with liver disease. Given the rising prevalence of fatty liver disease, researchers stress the importance of ongoing interventions to address sleep issues in affected patients. Combining lifestyle changes, regular medical check-ups, and targeted therapies could help break the cycle of poor liver health and disrupted sleep. Remember the prompt response advice, see a doctor before things potentially worsen. Fatty liver disease, now known as Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), occurs when fat accumulates in the liver. It is commonly associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes, alcohol consumption, and unhealthy lifestyle choices. Currently, fatty liver disease affects an estimated 30% of adults. Taking care of your liver could mean better sleep and better overall health. If you’ve been waking up all night, it may be time to listen to what your body, and your liver, are trying to tell you.
