Fatty Liver — Metabolic Health care at Dr. Era Ayurveda

Fatty Liver · the Metiva program

The warning light most people ignore — and the easiest to act on.

Usually found by accident on an ultrasound — and usually not a liver problem at all. It’s your metabolism storing what it should be burning.

Fatty liver is your metabolism’s earliest visible warning light — and one of the most reversible. It is usually found by accident on an ultrasound, and it is usually not a liver problem at all: it is your metabolism storing what it should be burning. Treat the root, and both the liver and the weight move together.

Medically reviewed by Dr. Era Bakshi Sharma — 18 years of clinical practice.

What's actually happening

Understand before treating

When your metabolism slows and stops working properly, the body starts storing what it should be burning — and the liver is the first place that fat collects. That’s why fatty liver shows up in people who barely drink: the cause isn’t alcohol, it’s metabolism.

It’s also why "just lose weight" rarely works as advice — the same slowed metabolism that filled the liver is what makes the weight stubborn. Treat the root and both move together.

Fatty liver is your metabolism’s earliest visible warning light — and one of the most reversible.

The next step

How it's assessed

It starts with the Metiva assessment — a few minutes of structured questions, no lab numbers needed. It doesn't diagnose; it tells you whether a clinical conversation is worth having, and a doctor decides everything after that.

If your answers point to something that needs a different doctor first, the assessment says so and routes you there instead of into a program. See what Metiva does and doesn't treat →
