Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  CONTROL GROUP  Participants in this group will be given a Continuous Energy Restriction diet. To promote weight loss, it is important to reduce the energy intake to achieve weight loss. A calorie restriction of 500 Kcal/day from the recommended dietary allowances of adults results in weight loss of 0.5 kg/week and 5% weight loss in 3 months. 
Intervention  Indo Mediterranean diet (IMD) GROUP  One arm consists of subjects who will be put on an IMD diet. In this diet, energy is provided as required by an individual based on ideal body weight as recommended by dietary allowance to Indian[2] but the composition of the food will be modified with a higher quantity of whole grains, herbs, spices, mustard oil, almonds and walnuts and in addition to fruits and vegetables and fish to non-vegetarians. Thus, the major constituents of the Indo-Mediterranean diet are more whole grains, such as millet, porridge, beans, brown rice, spices (coriander, turmeric, fenugreek, cumin, and cinnamon), peppers, onion, garlic, curd, and buttermilk, and lack of animal foods, except fish. This diet will also help in promoting the use of indigenous food grains like millet, vegetables, and fruits. The Indo-Mediterranean diet has no animal foods (except fish), lower saturated fat and total fat, sugar, and salt, and high omega-3 fatty acids and flavonoids.

Brief Summary  

 Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as the most common chronic liver disease. [1] Currently, there is no consensus concerning the pharmacological treatment of NAFLD. However, lifestyle interventions based on exercise and a balanced diet for quality and quantity, are considered the cornerstone of NAFLD management.

Research question: The research question here is, does the IMD is better than CER in improving liver steatosis, fibrosis, body composition and metabolic parameters. It is also important to compare the impact of these diets on other NAFLD related biomarkers. At last, apart from above mentioned parameters the study will also compare the effect of IMD and CER on, sleep quality, quality of life and adherence to the diet.

Methodology: 150 NAFLD patients will be included in the study and divided into 2 groups 75 in each group. Patients will be assessed at baseline for the liver steatosis and fibrosis, clinical, anthropometric, biochemical and metabolic parameters. They will be provided with the intervention and the outcomes will be assessed at 1.5 months and final outcomes at 3 months.

 Proposed outcome: It is expected that after 3 months of intervention improvement in liver steatosis and fibrosis, clinical, anthropometric, biochemical and metabolic parameters will be observed in the intervention group.
