Exercise and liver fat in fatty liver disease
Part of Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests if different types of exercise can reduce fat in the liver for people with metabolic fatty liver disease. It might help if you are looking for a non-drug way to improve your liver health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
