Vive la resistant starch: A potential treatment for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis
Abstract
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease is a prevalent chronic liver disease that affects nearly a third of the global adult population. Here, we preview a randomized controlled clinical trial on the potential benefits and underlying mechanisms of using resistant starch, a prebiotic, for treating this common liver condition.
