October is National Liver Awareness Month. To kick it off let’s talk about #MASLD (formally fatty liver disease). #MASLD which can be asymptomatic, affects 1 in 3 adults in the United States. Risk factors include overweight/obesity, diabetes, hyperlipidemia.

[AASLD @AASLDtweets]

AASLD & fellow Liver Societies issued a statement promoting a non-stigmatizing, person-centered approach within #hepatology. It addresses terminology related to #alcohol & #liver-related mobility and mortality, and stigmas associated with it https://t.co/pIFe2wBoUf #LiverTwitter

I've always loved this quote from George Bernard Shaw. I try my best to approach every day with this in mind. Some days are easier than others, but for me, this gets at the heart of what it means to seek a life of meaning. So, burn your torch brightly!
