Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Cut By Half With Green MED Diet by Anjanee Sharma on January 19, 2021 at 3:43 PM Long-term clinical intervention trials have found that a Green Mediterranean diet can cut Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) by half and also reduce intrahepatic fat much more than other healthy diets.
About 25% to 30% of people in the USA and Europe are affected by NAFLD. Problems like cardiovascular risk, type 2 diabetes, microbial imbalance, decreased gut microbiome diversity and insulin resistance can occur due to excessive fat (5% or higher) in the liver. The only intervention available for this is losing weight and reducing alcohol consumption.
