Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disease which causes the heart muscle to stretch and thin – leaving it unable to pump blood around the body efficiently. Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle. Fatty liver is a type of liver disease. It can be caused by a build-up of fats in the liver. These are usually caused by alcohol or sugars and fats in the diet.
