NASH stands for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and is the more serious form of NAFLD. NASH affects almost 1.5 million Canadians, even those who drink little or no alcohol. Not only can NASH cause liver scarring, called fibrosis, but about 1 out of 5 adults with NASH can develop potential damage to liver function called cirrhosis.
