Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dietary supplement Siliphos, which comes from milk thistle, to determine whether it is safe and well-tolerated in adults who have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). An additional aim of this study is to determine whether Siliphos may be beneficial in treatment of NASH as indicated by improvement in liver enzymes (ALT and AST). The study hypothesis is that Siliphos will be safe and well-tolerated in people with NASH and will result in a decrease in the liver enzymes ALT and AST.
