Our significant decreases in AST and ALT in the blend oil group relative to the soybean oil group are identical to those of a recent animal study that evaluated the effects of lard, soybean oil, or their blend oil (46% lard and 54% soybean oil) on NAFLD by following a low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet [4]. The gene discussed is GPT; the disease is metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
