Excerpt

Obesity is a rapidly growing public health challenge, with global prevalence having increased substantially over four decades, from less than 3% and 6% in 1975, to 11% and 15% in 2016, among male and female, respectively [1]. This development, together with concomitant increases in diabetes, has fuelled a dramatic escalation in the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is now a leading cause of chronic liver disease, and afflicts about a quarter of the global population [2]. …
