Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

You are having non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The probable risk factors in you are obesity and high triglyderides. The SGPT is not significantly raised.

In addition to controlling TGL, you also need to reduce weight. Silymarin and udiliv may not provide much benefit.
You can consider taking betaine/trimethyl glycine which is available as Trimeg.

I hope that answers your question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr.R.K
