Abstract
Weight loss is the most effective treatment for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). There is evidence that Mediterranean diets rich in unsaturated fatty acids and fiber have beneficial effects on weight homeostasis and metabolic risk factors in individuals with NAFLD. Studies have also shown that higher circulating concentrations of pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) are associated with lower risk for NAFLD.
