Recognizing Fatty Liver Disease
A Different Framework
The Chinese Medicine Perspective
In Chinese Medicine, fatty liver reflects patterns of Liver Qi Stagnation with Phlegm-Dampness accumulation — the Liver’s smooth flow becomes obstructed, and turbid substances accumulate. Spleen Qi Deficiency contributes by failing to properly transform fats and fluids.
Treatment focuses on smoothing Liver Qi, resolving Phlegm-Dampness, strengthening Spleen function, and supporting healthy metabolic transformation to reduce liver fat accumulation.
