American Liver Foundation
30 million Americans - one in every 10 - are or have been affected by a liver, biliary, or gallbladder disease.
Liver disease is the ninth leading disease related cause of death in the United States with more than 42,000 people dying each year.
There are more than 100 types of liver disease, with hepatitis A, B, and C being the most common.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, an obesity-related chronic liver disease, may affect as many as one in every four adults over the age of 18.
Hepatitis B and C infection significantly increase the risk of liver cancer, one of the few cancers currently on the rise in the U.S.
Many forms of liver disease are preventable, and many more can be treated effectively if detected early.
