Nutrition and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Current Perspectives

INTRODUCTION:

• Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathogenesis and progression are complex, heterogeneous, and multifactorial.
• The human diet typically contains thousands of bioactive molecules that orchestrate a variety of metabolic and signaling processes in health and disease, comprising a natural combination approach.
• Although food composition varies widely, cumulative evidence suggests that specific dietary macronutrients and micronutrients can affect biological processes involved in NAFLD pathogenesis.
