Fatty liver and steatosis

Wiernsperger, 2013

Steatosis is excessive fat accumulation in the form of triglycerides in the liver: > 5% of hepatocytes that contain lipid droplets

Prevalence rate of 30% in the general population

Could progress towards a more severe form with inflammation and fibrosis: Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)

World Gastroenterology Organisation, 2012http://www.centre-hepato-biliaire.org

Animals: BKS (db/db) female mice (5 weeks of age)

Design 7 months administration of:

Control diet (n=10) Diet with Glucevia (0,7g/kg of diet) (n=10)

Variables: Metabolic blood parameters (glucose, insulin,

cholesterol, triglycerides) Histological analyses of liver NAFLD blood parameters

Glucevia® a natural solution

Protocol: diabetic model

-54%

Glucevia® significantly reduces fatty liver tissue and improved markers of healthy liver in diabetic animals after 7 months

Results: diabetic model

Micrographs of H&E (high) or Oil red O (down) stained sections of livers from diabetic mice administered control or Glucevia

Diabetic model

Insulin was significantly reduced after 7 months as well as the HOMA-IR parameter showing reduced insulin-resistance in diabetic animals after administration of Glucevia (p<0.05)

Suggested mechanisms of action for Glucevia

Effect on the liver and mechanism of action

Key takeaways

The last pre-clinical study on Glucevia ® recently published in the Journal of Diabetes and Metabolism shows:

Glucevia ® helps manage blood sugar levels and protects liver health, thus addressing 2 main issues for people at risk of prediabetes and/or metabolic syndrome.

Due to its hepato-protective effect, Glucevia ® could be a new and effective natural solution for preventing steatosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
