| Core Tip |
Dietary modification is a main route of treatment in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), however it is difficult to maintain in the long term and better ways for implementation are needed. Higher perceptions of understanding the illness and a higher self-efficacy are positively related to better nutritional habits, and therefore its enhancement should be part of the behavioral treatment. Emphasizing to patients that although NAFLD is a chronic condition, it is effectively treatable by diet, increases their self-efficacy. “Scaring” the patients and leading them to believe that NAFLD has severe consequences may lead to the undesirable outcome of reduced self-efficacy and worse dietary habits.
