Abstract excerpt
Studies show that increased consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) is linked to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a condition characterized by excess fat accumulation in hepatocytes. Genetic factors also influence NAFLD. We conducted a clinical trial (NCT03783195) to determine if SNPs related to NAFLD are associated with liver fat content and its changes in response to a 3-week SSB intervention...
