Functional nutrition option patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Abstract

The results of a study of the clinical efficacy of dietary treatment in patients with non-alcoholic liver disease (NAFLD) with the additional inclusion of a new specialized nutritional functional dietary product “A mixture of essential nutrients multicomponent dry” (SENMS) in the product content of the standard D3 diet are presented. 75 patients with NAFLD were examined (39 - study group, 36 - control group). The patients in the study group received 6 g of SENMS daily for 2 weeks, consisting of 6 ingredients that are sources of biologically active substances: inulin, green tea extract, dry red wine extract, L-carnitine, grape seed extract, coenzyme Q10. As a result of the conducted study, it was proved that the SEMS in patients with NAFLD contributed to a faster decrease in the severity of hepatic parenchymal inflammation compared with the control, improved cholesterol metabolism, lipid peroxidation, and quality of life indicators of patients. In conclusion, the expediency of using a new specialized functional dietary food product “A mixture of essential nutrients multicomponent dry” in dietary treatment programs for patients with NAFLD was noted.
