Meet the Liver!
That's why we're hitting the road—to spark new conversations about this important organ and shine a light on a disease that too many people don’t see coming—MASH.
MASH = metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.

Watch Out for Fatty Liver and MASH
It's normal to have a small amount of fat in the liver. But too much fat can lead to a condition known as "fatty liver," which is part of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
If fatty liver is ignored, it can become a more serious disease: MASH.
MASH can cause inflammation, cell damage and scarring in the liver. If left unmanaged, MASH can lead to serious health problems.

MASH is a liver disease*
Understand the Facts
MASH often has no symptoms and if it goes unnoticed and unmanaged for too long, it can lead to serious health problems like cirrhosis or the need for a liver transplant. Know your liver status with a test for liver scarring. Learn more about fatty liver and MASH, including how to find a specialist to test for scarring on 'Taking on Fatty Liver and MASH.'
