D-Lyxose
D-Lyxose, a natural pentose sugar, is rare and found primarily in the cell wall of select bacteria. Recent research has explored its potential use as a treatment for liver fibrosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In preclinical studies, D-Lyxose has exhibited potential in its ability to combat liver inflammation and enhance glucose metabolism. Examination of its therapeutic capabilities as it relates to NAFLD is currently ongoing and warrants further investigation.
