Omega-3 fatty acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are healthy fats that can relieve inflammation and support the immune system. Fish oil is a dietary source of omega-3 fatty acids. Research on omega-3 fatty acids and MASLD is mixed. Some research suggests that omega-3 fatty acids may reduce liver fat and may slow or even reverse MASLD scarring. Other studies haven't found a strong connection between omega-3s and liver inflammation or scarring.

Natural sources of omega-3 fatty acids are best. These include fatty fish, such as salmon, mackerel and sardines, walnuts, some seeds, and leafy green vegetables. If you don't get enough omega-3s through your diet, ask your healthcare team about taking supplements.
