“…Nine studies analyzed the association between Mediterranean diet, physical activity, and NAFLD; four of them studied recruited people as a single group [ 22 , 25 , 29 , 30 ], two classified participants into two groups [ 24 , 31 ], two analyzed hand-grip strength [ 32 , 33 ], and one assessed renal outcomes [ 26 ]. Most studies agreed that a Mediterranean diet and physical activity improved all or some of NAFLD risk factors: weight reduction [ 22 , 29 , 30 ], body mass index [ 24 , 29 , 30 ], waist circumference [ 24 , 29 , 30 ], triglyceridemia [ 22 , 29 ], LDL-cholesterol [ 29 , 30 , 31 ], impaired fasting glycemia [ 22 , 29 ], visceral adipose index and fatty liver index [ 29 ], lipid accumulation [ 14 , 29 ], homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance [ 29 , 30 , 31 ]; increased HDL-cholesterol [ 22 , 29 ]; normalization of alanine aminotransferase [ 22 , 29 , 30 ]; reduction of gamma glutamyl transferase [ 30 ]; and improvement of steatosis [ 24 , 29 , 30 , 31 ].…”
