Core Tip	Obesity, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus are strictly related and are key pathogenetic factors in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, one of the most frequent liver diseases worldwide. It is necessary to stress that one of the most important consequences of the “metabolic epidemics” is the probable rise in the incidence of cancers, particularly hepatocarcinoma. Thus, to improve survival, efforts to achieve a “healthier diet” should be promoted by physicians and politicians, even though no changes in genes have been observed in the postprandial state induced after the acute effect of specific diets in patients exhibiting non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and insulin resistance.
