Popis:	Hyperammonemia is considered as a significant trigger factor in the progression of liver diseases, starting from the stage of steatosis. There is also a link between high levels of ammonia and metabolic syndrome. The article discusses the relationship of hyperammonemia with a violation of carbohydrate metabolism. It is likely that an increase in ammonia is associated with an increase in visceral fat and may be a predictor of the development of insulin resistance as a key factor in carbohydrate metabolism disorders.
