Abstract: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)is a common chronic liver disease characterized by excess fat accumulation within liver cells.The main causes include obesity,diabetes,and hyperlipidemia.In recent years,NAFLD and other metabolic diseases have become global public health issues.Although some progress has been made in the drug treatment of NAFLD,the efficacy is limited and there are many adverse effects.As a treatment method with high safety and few adverse effects,exercise therapy has good application prospects in the treatment of NAFLD and other metabolic diseases.However,challenges remain in overcoming patients'low exercise compliance and in finding safe and effective exercise therapy drug targets.This article explores the mechanisms and application prospects of exercise therapy in the treatment of NAFLD and other metabolic diseases,summarizes the energy consumption,metabolic pathways,and inter-organ communication induced by exercise,aiming to provide useful references for clinical practitioners.
