How common is fatty liver disease in Canada?

Fatty liver disease is very common in Canada; targeted screening is recommended for people with obesity or type 2 diabetes. See your family doctor for evaluation.

Can fatty liver disease be treated or reversed?

Lifestyle interventions (weight loss, healthy eating consistent with Canada’s Food Guide, physical activity) are the first‑line approach; certain medications are under study but not universally recommended.

What blood sugar (mmol/L) thresholds are relevant for people with fatty liver?

Fasting plasma glucose is reported in mmol/L in Canada; diabetes is typically diagnosed at fasting glucose ≥7.0 mmol/L or random ≥11.1 mmol/L. Check Diabetes Canada guidance for targets.

Is Feel Great a treatment for fatty liver disease?

No — Feel Great is a lifestyle support system (soluble fibre matrix, Unimate, intermittent fasting protocol) and should be used with clinical care; it is not a medication.

How do I get tested or referred in my province?

Start with your family doctor or a walk‑in clinic. Ask about labs, FIB‑4, and whether a FibroScan or hepatology referral is indicated; provincial referral pathways vary.
