Alcoholic Liver Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
Alcoholic liver disease represents the major health issues and it ranges from simple steatosis to cirrhosis. There is a paucity of data to support the allopathic intervention among these group of patients. Livitol-17 consist of the 3 whole herbs and extract which has antioxidant, hepatoprotective as well as reno-protective properties. The aim of this trial is to study the efficacy of herbal supplement to improve the liver function of alcoholic liver disease subject.
Interventions
Livitol-17 detoxifies, purifies and rejuvenates liver, kidney and spleen. Participants will be given the intervention in two bottles at each visit. Participant will be instructed to take two capsule twice daily at a fixed time in the day.
