Higher plain water intake is related to lower newly diagnosed nonalcoholic fatty liver disease risk: a population-based study
Imbibing the habit of drinking 4 or more cups of water daily might help to shield an individual from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
This study investigated the association between regular drinking of water and the onset of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Researchers examined the water drinking habits and prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease among 16,434 Chinese men and women over a 9-year period.
Researchers discovered that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease occurred at a lesser frequency among participants who drank 4 or more cups of water per day than in their counterparts who consumed fewer amounts. Based on the data from this study, there is a protective association between the consumption of generous amount of water and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
