Purpose
To establish metabolic improvements in NAFLD subjects by dietary supplementation with cofactors N-cacetylcysteine, L-carnitine tartrate, NR and serine. Concomitant use of pivotal metabolic cofactors via simultaneous dietary supplementation wil stimulate three different pathways to enhance hepatic β-oxidation and this study’s hypothesis is that this will result in decreased amount of fat in the liver.
