Brief Summary

To study the effects of Resveratrol supplement on lipid profile, liver enzymes, inflammatory factors and hepatic fibrosis in patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver (NAfLD), 50 patients who referred to Gastrointestinal (GI) clinic with steatosis grade 1 or more will be randomly allocated to receive 1 Resveratrol capsules or placebos for 12 weeks; both groups will be advised to adherence our diet and exercise program too. At the first and the end of the intervention, lipid profiles, liver enzymes, some inflammatory cytokines, and liver fibrosis will be assessed and compared between groups.
