12-week daytime eating study for fatty liver in obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests if restricting eating to daytime hours for 12 weeks can reduce liver fat in people with obesity. It aims to help those with fatty liver disease improve their health without medication.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether changing when you eat (for example, shortening your daily eating window) can help improve liver health in people with fatty liver disease. If you qualify, you would receive guidance on meal timing and may help researchers learn if this approach reduces liver fat and improves overall health.
This study looks at a new non-invasive screening method to predict metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), a condition where fat builds up in the liver. The goal is to help identify people who may be at risk without needing invasive tests.
This trial tests whether a probiotic mixture can improve liver health in people with moderate fatty liver disease (MASLD). It looks at how the probiotic affects liver fat, inflammation, and metabolism.
This study looks at whether the natural chemicals made by your gut bacteria from the food you eat could affect liver fat and health. If you have MASLD (a fatty liver condition), researchers want to measure these gut-produced substances to better understand the disease.
This research studies fatty liver disease linked to metabolic problems like diabetes and obesity. You'll wear a fitness tracker and have liver imaging to help doctors understand the disease and find new treatments.
This study tests whether a daily ketone ester drink can reduce liver fat and improve metabolism in people with excess liver fat. You may join if you are 18–40, have overweight or obesity, and your liver has extra fat.
