To study the effects of Hesperidin supplement on lipid profile, liver enzymes, inflammatory factors and hepatic fibrosis in patients with Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), 50 patients who referred to Gastrointestinal (GI) clinic with steatosis grade 2 and 3 will be randomly allocated to receive placebos or 2 capsules Hesperidin for 12 weeks; both groups will be advised to adherence the investigators' diet and exercise program too.
