Title: What are the main areas of focus to prevent or treat non-alcoholic fatty liver disease?
Abstract: Recently, a growing body of information has accumulated to suggest that nutritional status and food compounds impact on the development or progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The best strategy to prevent and treat NAFLD is to modify diet and lifestyle by maintaining a healthy weight, following a well-balanced diet with appropriate energy intake and increasing physical activity or strength training. Here we review the literatures and discuss existing and potential therapeutic strategies for the prevention and management of NAFLD, emphasizing the description of nutritional status and its clinical impact on the outcomes of NAFLD.
