Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. To evaluate and compare the effectiveness of Unani therapeutic modalities Ilaj bil Dawa (Pharmaco Therapy), Ilaj bil Ghiza (Dietotherapy), and Riyazat (Exercise) in combination with each other, versus standard allopathic treatment in improving hepatic steatosis and liver function in patients with NAFLD. Timepoint: baseline and after completion of study i.e.8 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To explore correlations between traditional Unani diagnostic concepts (e.g., Mizaj, Balgham predominance) and clinical/laboratory outcomes in NAFLD patients. 2. To determine the safety and tolerability of Unani interventions compared to standard therapy by monitoring adverse events and treatment adherence. 3. To assess the impact of Unani treatments and allopathic therapy on metabolic parameters such as BMI, FBS, Lipid profile, Insulin level 4. To develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the implementation of Riyazat Timepoint: Before and after the eight-week clinical trial
