How long can you live with a fatty liver?

My recent health checkup showed I have a fatty liver. The doctor said to make lifestyle changes. I'm a bit concerned, how serious is this? How long can one live with a fatty liver if it's not severe?

My teenager was diagnosed with Grade 1 fatty liver due to junk food and lack of outdoor play. We completely cut out bakery items, started playing badminton daily, and his reports became absolutely normal in six months. Don't worry, it's very manageable!

Pranayama like Kapalbhati and regular light yoga can do wonders for a sluggish liver. Combine this with simple home-cooked meals free of heavy oils, and your liver will remain healthy for decades.

I was researching this yesterday because my ultrasound also showed Grade 2 fatty liver. From what I read, you can live a perfectly normal, full life because early stages are totally reversible with exercise and diet.

I panicked so much when my doctor mentioned fatty liver, thinking my liver was failing. But honestly, after talking to many people, I realized almost everyone has it. Just watch your sugar intake and you'll be absolutely fine.
