The liver is central to nearly every metabolic process in the body, yet liver disease often progresses silently until advanced stages. In India, liver cancer is among the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, and conditions like Fatty Liver Disease are increasing due to sedentary lifestyles and dietary changes. Viral infections such as Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and Hepatitis D also remain major contributors to liver-related illness.
At DNA Labs India—an ISO 9001 certified diagnostics provider—clinical experts like Dr. Ramachandra Pendurti emphasize that prevention, powered by both lifestyle discipline and genetic insights, is the most effective way to combat liver disease.
