New study from @NIHRresearch Oxford BRC:
Are night-time metabolic changes driving the most common liver disease? Researchers found the metabolic changes that drive #MASLD happen overnight, when the body is least able to process sugar and fat #NAFLD 1/4

[@OUH_research @OUH_Research]

Lead author Tom Marjot says the findings offer exciting opportunities to help treat #MASLD, including optimising the timing of meals and exercise and informing when to take medication. 3/4
