Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
This is a 12-month NAFLD-specific weight loss intervention that is explicitly tailored for Mexican-American men. It will include recommendations for diet, physical activity, and will utilize risk for NAFLD as a mechanism to engage men in lifestyle modification.
Participants in this condition will not receive treatment for 12-months until study comparisons have been made. After 12-months, participants will receive the 12-month NAFLD-specific weight loss intervention.
