Core Tip The aim of this article is to review the impairment of hepatocellular dysfunction in alcoholic liver diseases and their prospective managements. Specifically, we focused on the natural therapies with their efficacies and safeties. Moreover, we summarized molecular mechanisms of herbal therapy to treat alcoholic liver disease (ALD). With evidence-based natural therapy, this article highlighted that the combination of pharmaceutical drugs with naturally occurring agents may offer an optimal management for this complex liver disease. It is worthwhile to conduct large-scale, multiple centre clinical trials further to prove the safety and benefits for the integrative therapy on ALD.
