Effects of a Portfolio Diet on NAFLD in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Patients with type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease will be enrolled. According to a parallel design, the participants will be randomized to a Portfolio diet or a monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA)-rich diet (used as control) for 8 weeks. At the beginning and at the end of the trial, the participants will undergo a MRI spectroscopy to evaluate fatty liver content. Moreover, the participants will undergo a test meal resembling the nutritional composition of the assigned diet to evaluate fasting and postprandial metabolic response.
