GLUT-F Improves MASLD Liver Function

Sponsor: University of Bari

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-period crossover study evaluated the effects of GLUT-F, a nutraceutical formulation containing silibin-enriched silymarin, glutathione, and vitamin E delivered with Enterosoma® technology, in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Participants received GLUT-F and placebo for 3 months each, separated by a 1-month washout period. The study assessed changes in hepatic steatosis, liver enzymes, metabolic parameters, inflammatory markers, and liver function measured by ultrasonography and the \^13C-methacetin breath test.
