OANDCon24: MASH: Comprehensive Approaches for Naturopaths in Diagnosis and Management for Metabolic dysfunction-associated Steatohepatitis


Course Description:

Many patients are told that their ultrasound-confirmed fatty liver is not a concern. As Naturopathic Doctors, you may turn to liver-based supplements or herbal support to address this condition, but are these approaches enough? This session will delve into the co-morbidities of fatty liver disease (formerly NAFLD), offer evidence-based strategies for diagnosis and management, and discuss the recent renaming of the disease.  Leave this session fully informed on the most effective ways to assess, diagnose, educate and manage MASH in your patients.

Clinical Takeaways: 

  • Understanding the renaming decision of MASH (formally known as NAFLD) and its clinical relevance
  • New early signs and symptoms and diagnostic criteria with MASH
  • Comprehensive understanding of the new evidence around contributing factors to MASH
  • In-depth understanding of the disease burden that MASH has on other chronic diseases and how you can help your patients
  • Naturopathic interventions and protocols you can use in practice
