Association of dietary behavior with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

The prevalence rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing year by year, which poses a heavy burden on global public health. The pathogenesis of NAFLD is closely associated with the factors including obesity, insulin resistance, and diet, among which diet is the core and cornerstone of the prevention and treatment of NAFLD. In view of the fact that previous studies focused on the association of different dietary components, structures, and plans with NAFLD and seldom explored the impact of overall dietary behavior on NAFLD, this article reviews the effect of dietary behavior on NAFLD, in order to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD and the guidance on rational dietary behaviors and habits for patients.
