Abstract

The aim: To study intermittent fasting (IF) treatment in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and prediabetes. Materials and methods: Patients with NAFLD (n=95) were examined. The patients were divided into 2 groups: Group 1 - NAFLD with obesity, Group 2 - NAFLD and prediabetes. All patients in both groups had Body mass index (BMI) within the 2nd degree of obesity range (30.0 kg/m2 to 34.5 kg/m2). Results: The effect of IF on anthropometric parameters, carbohydrate and lipid levels in patients with NAFLD with obesity and NAFLD with prediabetes, 6 and 12 months after treatment is shown. Conclusions: Intermittent fasting has a statistically significant effect on anthropometric parameters in NAFLD with obesity and NAFLD with prediabetes. Metformin administration after intermittent fasting in 12 months showed a statistically significant improvement in lipid and carbohydrate profiles.
