Fatty Liver Disease:
An Evidence Based Review

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) includes a spectrum of liver disorders due to
abnormal fat deposition in the liver. These range histopathologically from simple steato-
sis to steatohepatitis (NASH) which can progress to cirrhosis and end stage liver disease.
NAFLD is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in the developed world and is
generally a component of the underlying “metabolic syndrome.” It is likely to emerge as
the most common cause of liver disease associated mortality in the next decade. Cur-
rently, there is no specific drug therapy approved for the treatment of this condition.
This article reviews the role of weight loss measures and nutritional supplements such
as antioxidants and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the treatment of NAFLD.

INTRODUCTION
trum of liver disorders occurring due to abnormal fat Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the deposition in the liver, which ranges in severity from
most common cause of chronic liver disease in simple hepatic steatosis with no inflammation, to the developed world (1). NAFLD refers to a spec- steatohepatitis (NASH) which can progress to liver cir-rhosis. The diagnosis of NAFLD by definition impliesthe exclusion of significant alcohol intake (i.e., >140gm/week in men; >70 gm/week in women).

However, different tests, including liver be a major player in the pathogenesis, both dietary enzymes (AST, ALT) and imaging (liver ultrasound, modifications and exercise seem theoretically the best MR spectroscopy), have been used. Studies looking at options for preventing the progression to NASH and the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination for management of NASH once it develops. This Survey (NHANES III) using AST and ALT as criteria review focuses on the nutritional interventions that can for NAFLD (after excluding alcohol and hepatitis B, C potentially make a difference in the management of as causes) found a prevalence of 5.4% in the U.S pop- ulation (6,7). However, liver enzymes have beenshown to be non-specific and poorly sensitive forchronic liver disease (8). Use of liver ultrasound to DIETARY MODIFICATIONS AND

However, only a few studies have evaluated histological improvementin NAFLD based on biopsy results (14,19,20). NATURAL HISTORY OF NAFLD
One of the best studies to date looking at the naturalhistory of NAFLD in the general population was donein the Mayo Clinic by Adams et al. A total of 420 patients in Olmstead County, Rochester, diagnosed Diet Trials in NAFLD
