Story at-a-glance

Vitamin D deficiency is strongly linked to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a growing metabolic disorder that often develops silently until serious damage occurs
Research shows vitamin D controls liver function at the genetic level, activating fat-burning genes while suppressing fat storage, making it key for preventing and reversing liver damage
Vitamin D supplementation in studies significantly decreased liver fat, reduced inflammation and restored proper mitochondrial structure and function, especially in older subjects
Other essential nutrients for liver health include vitamins E, B12 and folate, which work together to regulate fat metabolism, reduce inflammation and support detoxification
Practical solutions include eliminating vegetable oils, which are high in linoleic acid, strategic sun exposure, testing your vitamin D levels (aiming for 60 to 80 ng/mL) and combining vitamin D3 with magnesium and K2 when supplementing
