Presented by: Jonathan G. Stine, MD MSc, FACP

In this course, Dr. Jonathan Stine will discuss the widespread public health issue posed by Metabolic Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) and the critical role of exercise in its prevention and management. He will provide an overview of the epidemiology and growing burden of MASLD and its risk factors. Dr. Stine will then explore the benefits of exercise training, emphasizing how even short daily routines can lead to substantial improvements in liver function and metabolic health. This session will highlight the latest research on exercise as a therapeutic intervention and offer practical guidelines for clinicians on prescribing exercise as medicine. The talk will conclude with a call to action for integrating exercise into routine care for MASLD patients.
