Persistently elevated insulin from high glucose driving diets.

Even "healthy" people end up putting glucose food into their mouths 8 or more times per day. Insulin inhibits the body from mobilizing fat, and the liver builds up fat stores it cant get rid of.

The fastest way to resolve fatty liver is to stop eating food that elevates blood glucose - i.e. carbohydrates.

It can be difficult because of food addiction.

addiction and just normalization!

A coffee with cream, a soda, a healthy "kombucha", a fruit juice... all spike blood glucose, and most people simply don't think of it as eating....

cheese will not elevate your blood glucose, so it is not involved in fatty liver etiology
