Efficacy of nutrition therapy with food rich in methionine for treating nonalcoholic fatty liver
Introduction. Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver disease (NAFLD) can lead to Non Alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and liver cancer. The treatment for NAFLD involves modification of caloric intake and physical activity. NAFLD has a pro-oxidant nature; therefore, it is logical to suppose that the antioxidant methionine can be used as a treatment for this disease. Aim. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of high-methionine dietary therapy on patients with NAFLD. Materials and methods. A randomized clinical study was conducted over three months. In this study, 121 NAFLD patients participated, and the age of the participants was ≥ 20 years (experimental group included 56 and control group 65), all of whom were randomized and matched by sex, recluted from the ISSSTE hospital in Xalapa, Mexico. The patients were instructed to consume food to cover the recommended methionine daily doses, and the daily amount consumed was calculated. Methionine effect was measured as NAFLD regression and quality of life improvement. Results. Nutritional therapy induced NAFLD regression and diminished central fat accumulation, blood pressure, and the fatty liver index. Some parameters, such as liver enzymes, did not changed. The quality of life of patients improved after treatment. Conclusions. In this study, we show a hepatoprotective effect induced only in three months of chances in the diet, thus, a longer diet may generate more relevant benefits in the resistant parameters of our study.
期刊介绍:
Archivos Latinoamericanos de Nutrición (ALAN) is the official publication of the Sociedad Latinoamericana de Nutición (SLAN), for the dissemination of knowledge in the fields of food and nutrition, principally throughout the American Hemisphere. Articles in Spanish, English, Portuguese and French are accepted, both from the Society members and from nonmembers, in the following categories: 1. General articles (critical scientific reviews); 2. Research articles (originals); 3. Papers in applied nutrition (analytical results from intervention programs and discussion of reconmendations of practical application), and 4. Letters to Editor (short comments of general interest or about scientific facts and results previously published in Archives).
