“This form of liver disease and dementia share many common risk factors, such as high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity.

“Future studies will need to explore the mechanisms underlying the link between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and dementia.”

It is estimated that up to one in every three people in the UK has early stages of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, according to the NHS.
