Hear from medical experts as they break down:

• What MASLD is and who’s most at risk
• How it can impact your health, even leading to liver transplant
• Available treatment options 
• How to talk to your primary care doctor about liver health
• Ways to advocate for yourself and get the support you need

The session includes an interactive Q&A where you can ask healthcare professionals your questions directly.

Whether you've been diagnosed, are at risk, or simply want to learn more, this program is designed to empower you with the knowledge to take charge of your liver health.
