Inulin-Rich Prebiotic Vegetables May Help in Fatty Liver Disease Reversal

26 Dec 2025

Description

Inulin is a naturally occurring, non-digestible fiber stored in many plants. It acts as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria that influence how the body handles sugar, fat, and inflammation A 2025 animal study found that inulin helped reverse fatty liver disease by prompting small-intestinal microbes to clear fructose and redirect liver metabolism toward the production of the antioxidant glutathione Inulin supports insulin sensitivity, lowers triglycerides, and improves liver markers. However, high doses, especially from supplements, can cause bloating Onions, garlic, asparagus, chicory, and Jerusalem artichoke are among the richest natural sources of inulin Restoring liver health isn't about quick fixes. Adopt consistent habits, such as regular movement, mindful eating, restorative sleep, and a diet centered on fiber-rich foods
