Although it can be reversible, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) can progress to more advanced liver conditions such as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) or cirrhosis. Cirrhosis is a major risk factor for liver cancer and chronic liver failure, as the scarring can severely impact the liver’s ability to function.

Understanding the stages of liver disease can help you make informed lifestyle choices to protect your liver.

A healthy liver ➡️ Your liver functions properly by detoxifying the body and supporting your overall health.⁠
MASLD ➡️ Fat builds up in the liver cells. Symptoms may not be present at first, but it may lead to inflammation over time.
MASH ➡️ A more severe form of MASLD where fat buildup causes inflammation and liver cell damage.
Cirrhosis ➡️ An advanced form of liver damage characterized by irreversible scarring of the liver that significantly reduces its ability to function.

🥒🎾 A big thank you to the KPMG Law Young Leaders Committee and everyone who participated in their DIY fundraising pickleball event last week. It's so inspiring to see an event that brings people together to support an important cause and make a real impact for liver health!

Together, the event raised $2,500 in support of our mission and the 1 in 4 Canadians impacted by liver disease!

DIY fundraising initiatives like this play an important role in supporting liver health awareness, care, and better health outcomes across the country.

We’re so grateful for those that fuel our work in such meaningful (and fun) ways!

What is Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE)? The Liver Dictionary has you covered!⁠
⁠
HE is a condition that can develop after significant liver damage, when the liver is no longer able to properly remove toxins from the body. This can affect how the brain functions, leading to symptoms like confusion, memory loss, personality changes, tremors, and sleep disturbances.⁠
If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, it’s important to speak with a healthcare provider as soon as possible. ⁠

Living with liver disease can look different for everyone. Your liver is a resilient organ that works hard to keep you healthy, often without obvious signs of damage. In the early stages, liver disease may show little to no symptoms, but as it progresses, it can have a significant impact on daily life.

Know your risks and talk to your healthcare provider about your liver health. Learn more ➡️ liver.ca/your-liver/

Did you know menopause can increase the risk of liver disease?

Yet a new national survey by Liver Canada found that only 2 in 10 Canadians are aware of the connection.

Yesterday, Holly Nyenkamp joined Rosey Edeh on CTV Ottawa Morning Live to discuss the often-overlooked link between hormonal changes and liver health and why increasing awareness is so important.
