Hibiscus sabdariffa extract inhibits obesity and fat accumulation, and improves liver steatosis in humans

This 2014 randomized controlled trial assessed the effects of Hibiscus sabdariffa extract (HSE) on obesity and liver steatosis in overweight individuals (BMI ≥27). Over 12 weeks, participants consuming HSE exhibited significant reductions in body weight, BMI, body fat, waist-to-hip ratio, and serum free fatty acids compared to controls. Imaging studies

Transient elastography (FibroScan®) with controlled attenuation parameter in the assessment of liver steatosis and fibrosis in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease – Where do we stand?

This 2016 review evaluates the utility of transient elastography (TE) with controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) in assessing liver steatosis and fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients. TE with CAP is a non-invasive, rapid, and reproducible method that quantifies liver stiffness and steatosis levels, offering an alternative to liver

Methionine and choline regulate the metabolic phenotype of a ketogenic diet

This study explored the roles of methionine and choline in regulating the metabolic effects of a ketogenic diet in mice. It found that methionine supplementation helped restore weight and normalized liver fatty acid gene expression, while choline was more effective at reducing liver fat accumulation. The findings suggest that both
