Core Tip	Due to the modern sedentary and food-abundant lifestyle, the incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has doubled during the past years, and its prevalence ranges from 20% in China and 27% in Hong Kong to 30% in Western countries. Although NAFLD is a major cause of chronic liver diseases, a satisfactory treatment targeting one or several pathological mechanisms of NAFLD has yet to be identified. Recent studies have suggested that Chinese herbal extracts (resveratrol, Lycium barbarum polysaccharides, dioscin, bergamot polyphenol fraction, capsaicin, garlic-derived S-allylmercaptocysteine) may inhibit NAFLD progression by inducing autophagy, the role and mechanisms of which are summarized in this review.
