In this study, researchers from South Korea examined the mechanism by which the combined extracts of Rhus verniciflua (Chinese lacquer tree) and Eucommia ulmoides (Chinese rubber tree) — denoted as ILF-RE — regulate hepatic dyslipidemia. Their findings were published in The American Journal of Chinese Medicine.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that the combined extracts of R. verniciflua and E. ulmoides can be used for the prevention or treatment of NAFLD.
