Effect of Nutraceutical Supplementation and Mediterranean Hypocaloric Diet on Calculated Steatosis Indices and Inflammation: Clinical and In Vitro Evidences

This research shows that taking a specialized supplement containing natural plant compounds along with eating a Mediterranean diet can significantly help people with fatty liver disease. The supplement works by reducing harmful stress molecules in liver cells and calming down inflammation. After three months of treatment, patients showed improved liver health markers, better cholesterol levels, and improved blood sugar control. The study demonstrates that combining diet and targeted supplements is more effective than diet changes alone.
