Hydrogen-rich Water for Non-alchoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effects of Hydrogen-rich Water on Liver Fat Accumulation, Blood Lipids and Body Fatness in Patients With Non-alchoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluates how 4-week supplementation with hydrogen-rich water affects liver fat accumulation, blood lipid profiles and body composition in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Clinical Trial Description

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disorder characterized by liver fat deposition due to causes other than excessive alcohol consumption. NAFLD can cause many liver dysfunction-related symptoms and signs, with the disease may progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, a condition marked by liver inflammation, fibrosis and irreversible damage. NAFLD is usually accompanied by insulin resistance and obesity, with up to 30% of population in industrialized countries have NAFLD. While NAFLD is rapidly becoming the most common liver disease worldwide, its treatment remains elusive, and directed toward correction of the risk factors. Since metabolic impairment plays a major role in NAFLD pathogenesis, any agent that advance lipid and glucose metabolism could be appropriate to tackle this complex condition. Molecular hydrogen (H2) has recently emerged as a novel pro-metabolic agent that might positively affect liver health. Supplemental hydrogen improves blood lipid profiles and insulin resistance in overweight women, patients with type 2 diabetes, and in subjects with potential metabolic syndrome. In addition, drinking hydrogen-rich water reduces hepatic oxidative stress and alleviated fatty liver damage in rodents. However, no human studies so far evaluated its effectiveness to alter liver steatosis in patients with NAFLD. In this pilot trial, we analyze the effects of 4-week hydrogen-rich water intake on liver fat deposition, body composition and lab chemistry profiles in overweight patients suffering from NAFLD. ;
