Abstract in brief

  • Chia seeds supplemented diet significantly improved nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and related metabolic issues in patients, such as reducing visceral fat, liver fat, cholesterol, and free fatty acids, with over half the patients showing regression of the disease.
  • The study found that taking 25 grams of milled chia daily increased plasma levels of ALA (an Omega-3 fatty acid) and dietary fiber, contributing to health benefits and potential disease prevention.
  • Since there are no approved drug treatments for NAFLD, incorporating chia into the diet could be a promising, natural alternative to manage and potentially reverse the disease.]
