The HEALD (Healthy Liver Education and Alcohol-associated Liver Disease Prevention) initiative, launched by Amit Shah, is designed specifically to address liver diseases on a national scale. Its strategy includes public education, early detection, treatment options, and the prevention of liver diseases, especially those linked to alcohol use disorder. The program also integrates psychological support, community engagement, and policy reforms to offer a comprehensive response. The initiative emphasizes the importance of timely intervention, with the strong message that many liver failures result from missed opportunities for early action, underlining the critical need for awareness and prevention efforts.
