Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an advanced form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and is usually associated with overweight, obesity and metabolic syndrome. The major treatment offered for NAFLD is a healthy lifestyle, calorie restriction diet and regular physical activity. In this regard, mare’s milk may be considered a pathogenetically substantiated, highly effective and affordable natural health product or dietary supplement for NASH patients. Mare's milk is known for its high value due to its similarity to human breast milk in chemical composition aspects. Through a review of the literature on mare's milk, this article analyzes the medical and dietary potentials of sublimated mare's milk for NASH patients. In this study, we used a specifically developed questionnaire, as well as clinical, biochemical and ultrasound methods.
