Stephen Esposito, MD
Gastroenterologist
I typically prescribe a low carb diet for many of my patients in this busy GI and Liver practice. Low carb diets are utilized in some IBD patients. The majority of my low carb diets are in my many fatty liver patients. Adhering to a low carb diet with its subsequent weight loss has improved their quality of life, normalized their liver function test and decreased their HgbA1c. Our office routinely performs Fibroscan at baseline and does serial scans every 6 months to track and show improvements of the CAP score (FAT) and E-score (Inflamation). Seeing these improvements energizes the patients to proceed on and maintain their improvements.
