Detailed description

For non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, there is currently no effective treatment method. Some studies suggest that a low-calorie diet, exercise, weight loss, etc., may help alleviate clinical symptoms, but the evidence is inconsistent. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a long history of treating liver diseases, and the formation of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease may be due to liver depression and blood stasis caused by spleen-stomach disharmony. In treatment, traditional Chinese medicine usually focuses on soothing the liver, promoting qi circulation, activating blood circulation, and resolving blood stasis. However, TCM treatment methods are diverse, and there is currently a lack of high-quality clinical research to confirm the efficacy of Chinese herbal medicine. Thereafter, Chang-Gung Healthy Drink which is a TCM based healthy drink may be used to alleviate the clinical adverse event of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients.
