Evidence supporting the use of: Resveratrol
For the health condition: Fatty Liver Disease
Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 2
Resveratrol, a polyphenolic compound found in grapes, berries, and peanuts, has been investigated for its potential benefits in managing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Preclinical studies in cell culture and animal models demonstrate that resveratrol can improve liver histology, reduce fat accumulation, and modulate inflammatory and oxidative stress pathways. Mechanistically, resveratrol appears to activate SIRT1 and AMPK signaling, which may enhance fatty acid oxidation and reduce lipogenesis in the liver. Several small-scale human clinical trials have also been conducted. Some of these studies report improvements in liver enzymes, insulin sensitivity, and markers of inflammation in patients with NAFLD who supplemented with resveratrol, generally at doses ranging from 300 mg to 3,000 mg daily for 8-12 weeks. However, the quality and consistency of evidence from human trials are limited. Many studies are small, short-term, and vary widely in methodology and resveratrol dosages, leading to mixed results. Meta-analyses published in recent years suggest a modest benefit but emphasize the need for larger, longer-term trials to establish efficacy and safety. Overall, while there is scientific rationale and preliminary clinical evidence supporting the use of resveratrol in fatty liver disease, it is not yet considered a standard or fully validated therapy.
