Summary

The FIND study will look at the effect of a nutritional mixed fibre supplement, oligofructose and inulin (OF+INU), on children with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. In this randomized, double- blind controlled trial, subjects will be given a supplement, in the form of oral pills, and will have bloodwork performed, their diets analyzed, and liver fat measured at several timepoints. Liver fat will be measured by using a specialized MRI device located at St. Joseph's Hospital. Subjects will be recruited from the Children's Exercise and Nutrition Clinic.
