It’s been shown that a lot of middle-aged “average” drinkers have fatty liver. According to the charity Drinkaware, you are at risk if you drink more than six drinks a day if you are a man and five if you are a woman—for just two or three weeks, which is only as long as a long vacation! NHS (National Health Service, the UK’s publicly funded healthcare system) advice says if you stop drinking for two weeks, you can reverse fatty liver disease (after this, you need to carry on drinking within the guidelines, of course).
