      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: The first step is to create a random sequence number. For this purpose, we will use a random number generator on Stattrek (https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx) for 50 numbers ranging from 1 to 2 (for example 2 1  1 2 1 2 1 1 2 2  2  1 1 2 2 1 2 2..............).Then, we will specify the numbers to the groups, for example, 1 will be assigned to the intervention group, and the numbers 2 to the control group. Each number will represent a group according to the defined numbers. With this method, we will have a specific sequence of 50 codes of  1, 2, which shows the first to 50th people who are going to be entered into the study in each group. We write the codes on a piece of paper and put them in an envelope to use during sampling. Thus, after reviewing the inclusion criteria and if the participants desire, we will enter each person included in the study according to our predetermined list.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group :After calculating the amount of calories needed by each person using the Meflin formula, each person  For 12 weeks, receiving the co-administration of DASH and intermittent fasting 16:8 diets . 16 hours of a day  in intermittent fasting for example, from 8:00 PM to 12:00 noon the next day and 8 hours of receiving  the DASH diet ,which includes the consumption of whole grains, 2 to 3 units of low-fat or fat-free dairy products, 7 to 8 units of fruits and vegetables,  limiting saturated fats and sweets and sugar-sweetened drinks. Intervention 2: Control group: They receive nutritional recommendations to control the disease: Avoid consuming too much sugar,  jam, honey, syrup, soft drinks, and other foods that contain sugar. These foods aggravate fatty liver. It should be noted that the consumption of alcoholic beverages can cause and aggravate the symptoms of fatty liver. Be sure to use different vegetables with meals.</i_freetext>
