Brief Answer:
cholesterol level associated fatty liver

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I can understand your concern for fatty liver.
1) Habit of junk-food eating is responsible for fatty liver due to fat-rich nature of food.
2) Fatty liver is condition in which fat get deposited in liver tissue due to either abnormal metabolism of fat inside liver or due to high amount of lipids in blood to get metabolised in liver.
3) Consumption of alcohol also cause fatty liver via affecting metabolism of fat inside liver. High cholesterol level cause fatty liver by providing increased load of lipid to liver for metabolism.
4) You should check lipid profile to confirm blood cholesterol levels.
5) Minimal fatty liver is reversible condition and you must take few precautions - protein rich diet, fat-free diet, regular light exercise, intermittent fasting, use of omega-3 fatty acid containing oil for food preparation.

Hope I answered your doubt. If you have any further query, I would be happy to help you.
Have a good day!
