Study Summary

The purpose of the study is to assess the feasibility of a trial to test the effects of homocysteine (Hcy) lowering supplements in patients with NAFLD. NAFLD patients will be asked to take Hcy lowering supplements (Vitamin B12, Folate, Vitamin B6, and Betaine) daily for 12 weeks. Over the course of approximately 12 to 13 weeks, participants will complete two in person visits and two phone visits to complete activities such as physical exam, fibroscan, blood draws, and questionnaires.

Primary Outcome

To minimize interindividual variability of fibroscan measurements, all of the fibroscan will be performed by a single, experienced operator using the same probe (M vs. XL) and technique for the paired measurements. The FibroScan-aspartate aminotransferase (FAST) score is a simple algorithm that can diagnose NASH using an elevated (≥ 4) NAFLD activity score (NAS) and significant fibrosis score (≥ 2).
