The aim of this study was to investigate whether a nutritional intervention motivating increased vegetable consumption would be an effective treatment and diet therapy for patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
During the 6-month intervention period, 15 participants received a small amount of vegetables twice a month as a nutritional education tool aimed at increasing vegetable consumption. They also received nutritional counselling.
The results suggest that a nutritional approach effectively increase vegetable consumption in at least some patients with NAFLD, consequently improving their condition.
