Low-dose aspirin led to a reduction in liver fat among patients with metabolic-associated liver disease, a small study out of Boston found.

The clinical trial, led by Tracey Simon of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, compared two groups of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, or MASLD. One group was given baby aspirin daily for six months, while the other received a placebo pill. At the end of the study period, the aspirin group had reduced hepatic fat content while the placebo group had higher fat buildup.

MASLD (formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) is a growing health threat, with 1 in 3 Americans having a troublesome amount of fat in their liver. The lipid buildup feeds into a toxic cycle of inflammation, tissue damage and, ultimately, irreversible scarring.
