Summary

A 48-week dietary intervention program was conducted in children aged 5-14 years with a diagnosis of NAFLD, who were randomized into a low free sugar diet group and a regular diet group. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether a low free sugar dietary intervention program improves liver function, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, lipid profile and hepatic steatosis in children with NAFLD. The effects of the intervention will be analyzed and compared at weeks 12, 24 and 48.
