The #EuropeanLiverScreeningWeek couldn't start in a better way. We at @EuropeLiver had the honor of welcoming Commissioner
@OliverVarhelyi
. He experienced firsthand how quickly and easily it is to assess liver health. People in Brussels, pass by and visit us!
Yesterday, @EuropeLiver, represented by my colleagues and me, had the opportunity to discuss the future European public health policy agenda with EU Commissioner Várhely, specifically liver health. We have exciting years ahead to work together.
From Policy to Practice: The Role of #LiverHealth in #EU#CVD & #CancerPlans
The Missing Piece in Cardiovascular Prevention: #LiverHealth!
Our ELPA team – President Marko Korenjak Korenjak, Veronika Všetíčková (EU Head Affairs), and Beatrice Credi (Head of Brussels Office) – had an inspiring meeting with EU Commissioner Olivér Várhelyi to push for stronger support for liver patients across Europe.
We delivered and highlighted the European Policy Position Paper on #MASLD, emphasizing why #fattyliverdisease is the missing puzzle in cardiovascular prevention. From viral #hepatitis to #livercancer, and #lipid disorders and hypertension – both with strong scientific evidence linked to liver health, it’s clear: integrated #liver and #Heart/#Cnacer health strategies save lives. 💪
A huge thank you to Commissioner Várhelyi for recognizing the vital role of liver health in prevention and care. #EuropeanLiverScreeningWeek reminded us that #earlydetection and #proactive care are key, and together, we will make liver health a true European priority.

A large new study in the @JHepatology has found that a healthy #diet and regular #physicalactivity lower the risk of liver-related death across all drinking patterns, including heavy and binge drinking.
🏋️♀️🥗The findings highlight the importance of considering lifestyle factors when evaluating the health risks of #alcohol consumption.
👩🦰Women, while at higher risk from alcohol-related liver disease, also gain greater protection from diet and exercise.

What practices of civil dialogue exist at EU level?
Who is organising them and along which methodology?
A new @EU_EESC study addresses these questions. @CEPS_thinktank carried it out.

Republicans are celebrating the passage of the largest Medicaid cut in U.S. history to pay for the largest tax break for billionaires in American history.
51,000 Americans will die each year so that the top 1% can get a $1 trillion tax break.
This bill is a death sentence.
Liver cancer is now one of the fastest-growing causes of cancer-related deaths in Europe. But despite clear links to major NCDs, liver disease remains marginal in national and EU-level health strategies. @EuropeLiver are calling for change. Partner Content
@Ektoras_74@EleonoraEvi@Deputatipd@marcofurfaro@pdnetwork Concordo. Ma e' il mix di prevenzione, alfabetizzazione sanitaria e politiche pubbliche che da' i migliori risultati nel campo delle politiche sanitarie. L'intervento pubblico serve a protezione delle fasce piu' deboli, le piu' indifese verso i fattori sociali e commerciali.
E' indispensabile rendere i giovani consapevoli dei loro diritti nel pianeta #sanità. Ed educarli ad un uso consapevole del Servizio Sanitario Nazionale
