Supplement confusion

Hi there

I’m sure this has been asked many many times but I have NAFLD and read somewhere that a B vitamin complex tablet a day can be helpful. Would anyone know if this is safe to take? I also wanted to take an Omega 3 supplement but again can’t find any definitive advice on whether it’s safe?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Honeysuckle123, welcome,

(Fellow NAFLD-er, and yes, some of the apparently conflicting information out there can seem confusing).

I prefer to obtain my B vitamins and Omega-3 from my diet.

Below are the resources which I have found helpful when trying to improve my diet on these two fronts:

nhs.uk/conditions/vitamins-...

nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well/f...

nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well/h...

nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well/h...

It is important to also read the BLT website guidance in this area too:

Fear not, there are no silly questions here - we are each bound to duplicate our concerns on this forum as we learn to improve our liver health and begin to navigate our respective treatment pathways.

Best wishes.
