The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing across the globe.
Here in Australia, it affects two in five adults. NAFLD is fast becoming a significant public health concern in western countries, including Australia, particularly as it’s also the main cause of chronic liver disease.
So, what does the evidence say in terms of prevention and treatment of this disease?
Join me as I speak with Senior Lecturer at Monash University, Dr Barbara Cardoso, to learn more.
We discuss her latest research findings, including the role of the Mediterranean diet, and just how crucial diet is in helping to reduce the risk of NAFLD.
Dr Barbara Cardoso is an internationally-recognised nutritional biochemist and holds a Senior Lecturer position in the Department of Nutrition, Dietetics and Food at Monash University.
Her research encompasses trials and epidemiological analysis to unravel how including nuts as part of a regular diet can mitigate cognitive decline in high-risk populations.
Dr Cardoso is listed in the top 1% worldwide for expertise on nuts (0.52%).
