Association between processed and unprocessed red meat consumption and risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: A systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis

Avid consumers of red and processed meats tend to have a high likelihood of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

This meta-analysis reviewed the results of published studies that focused on the relationship between the intake of a meaty diet and the probability of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A total of 10 studies was considered eligible for this meta-analysis. 

Researchers noted that the risk of having non-alcoholic fatty liver disease rose with increase in the rate of consumption of red and processed meats. This 2024 study established a connection between dietary ingestion of red and processed meats and the onset of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
