Summary

Effect of oral selected Probiotics (PRO) and/or Berberine (BBR) supplementation on hepatic steatosis markers, cardiometabolic profile, and gut microbiota profile in the non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) - a randomized double-blind clinical study.

Conditions

  • Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver
  • Obesity

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Probiotic

The probiotic group will receive one capsule of the probiotic mixture (dose:1x109 colony forming units (CFU) per day in one dose (before breakfast). The PRO preparation will contain the following bacterial strains: 50% Lactococcus lactis Rosell® - 1058, 25% Lactobacillus casei Rosell® - 215, 12,5% Lactobacillus helveticus Rosell® - 52, 12,5% Bifidobacterium bifidum Rosell® - 71). Probiotics will be administered orally.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Berberine

The berberine group will receive 1500 mg of Berberine (Berberine hydrochloride 97% extract of Berberis aristata) per day in 3 doses. Berberine will be administered orally, before breakfast, dinner, and before supper.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Placebo

The placebo group will receive a placebo. Placebo will contain only the excipients and will be administered orally for 24 weeks. Placebo in no way: color, taste, smell, form of taking, the dosage will not differ from the preparations tested. However, it will not contain probiotcs or berberine. Placebo will be orally administered three times a day: before breakfast, dinner, and supper (6.00-7.00 p.m.). To meet the GCP conditions, subjects from all groups will receive the same number of capsules (six) per day.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Probiotc and Berberine

Probiotics and Berberine groupwill receive both: a probiotics mixture (as in PRO group: 1x109 CFU/day; in one dose) and 1500 mg/day of Berberine (Berberine hydrochloride 97% extract of Berberis aristata; in 3 doses). Probiotcs and berberine will be administered orally before breakfast, before dinner, and before supper.
