International NASH Day
International NASH Day (IND) is a day set aside to raise awareness and urgency around fatty liver disease and its more advanced form, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
NASH is seen as a silent disease and the symptoms do not show making it often underdiagnosed and underreported. NASH can affect people of any age, including children but it is more common in people who live with certain conditions, including obesity (BMI >30) and conditions that may be related to obesity, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
