Diseases
Fatty Liver Disease
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the accumulation of fat in the liver. In NASH, a more severe form, the liver becomes inflamed, which can lead to liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Gallbladder inflammation
A gallbladder infection is inflammation of the gallbladder, where bile fluid is stored. When eating fatty foods, the gallbladder contracts to release bile into the small intestine for fat digestion.
Hemochromatosis
Hemochromatosis is an inherited disease in which the body stores too much iron, which can lead to liver and heart damage, joint pain and weakening. Family tests are recommended for diagnosis.
Gastroenteritis
Gastroenteritis is inflammation of the stomach and intestines, often due to a virus or bacteria. Symptoms include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal cramps. Also known as stomach flu.
Diverticulitis
Diverticula are small bulges on the colon. Diverticulitis occurs when they become inflamed or infected, usually in people over the age of 50. It affects 3 out of 1000 people annually.
Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis C virus. It spreads through blood contact and can lead to liver damage. There is no vaccine available against this disease.
