  • Description: Background Obesity accompanied by visceral fat accumulation is an essential disease background of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Obesity is a key factor and is also directly related to alterations in anthropometric measurements. It has been demonstrated that exercise intervention is the mainstay treatment for NAFLD patients. Therefore, this research investigates a literature review on anthropometric measurements and exercise interventions given to patients with NAFLD. Objectives To conduct a literature review on the effectiveness of exercise interventions over the anthropometric measurements among non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients. Methodology Based on available clinical evidence, a literature review will be performed. We identified 21 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that will be analyzed further. Results According to the results of the investigation, there was not much of a difference in the anthropometric changes that were found as a result of the various exercise regimens on NAFLD patients. Conclusion Even though there were significant changes in fat parameters such as lipid tests and other outcome measures, there were no immediate significant changes in anthropometric measurements as a consequence of the NAFLD exercise intervention.
