The diabetes and liver connection is more significant than most realize. At Dr Chetan Kalal’s Mumbai clinic, patients with diabetes are routinely screened for liver conditions such as NAFLD and NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis).
Insulin resistance, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes, increases fat storage in the liver. Over time, this can progress to inflammation and scarring. Diabetics are also more likely to develop complications like cirrhosis or liver cancer if not monitored closely.
Dr Kalal takes a comprehensive view, managing blood sugar, encouraging weight loss, and recommending dietary changes that support both liver and metabolic health. He works alongside endocrinologists to ensure treatment plans are integrated and effective.
Mumbai’s growing diabetic population makes this awareness even more urgent. Regular liver evaluations for diabetics are now considered a standard preventive measure.
If you’re managing diabetes, protect your liver too, visit Dr Chetan Kalal in Mumbai to understand and control the link.
