Episode Description In this episode, OMA Chief Science Officer, Harold Bays, MD, FOMA Dipl. ABOM and Sara Karjoo, MD, Dipl.

Topics covered include: how fat in liver is associated with an increased risk of heart disease and cancer, importance of early screening for progression of other diseases, and what to do as a clinician to treat non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
