The current study aim was to conduct placebo-controlled randomize clinical trial to assess the short-term efficacy and safety of postbiotics on hepatic fat content as measured by MRI-PDFF and ultrasonography, liver stiffness (LS) measured by Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) and anthropomorphic variables in NAFLD patients. The study will include 3 periods. Screening period of up to 1 weeks to assess the eligibility to inclusion/exclusion criteria. Treatment period for 3 month where the participants will receive a twice daily oral dose of postbiotics (cell lysate and DNA fragments of the probiotic strain L. rhamnosus DV - NRRLB-68023) at the assigned dose of 100mg or placebo in capsules. During this period monthly phone contacts will be done for assessment of compliance and safety concerns. Follow-up period of up to 3 month.
