Summary

The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing globally on a path to becoming the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease. Novel strategies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are urgently needed. A 6-month prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted to assess the efficacy of daily NRPT (commercially known as Basis; a combination of nicotinamide riboside and pterostilbene) supplementation in 111 adults with NAFLD...This study demonstrates that NRPT at the recommended dose is safe and may hold promise in lowering markers of hepatic inflammation in patients with NAFLD.
