Methods for treatment of chronic liver disease and reversing liver fibrosis are provided. These treatments may be achieved using a medical food composition. The medical food is configured specifically for those having chronic liver disease to provide for specific nutritional requirements caused by the chronic liver disease. Testing of the treated patient allows for tracking of progress and to determine if the liver fibrosis is reversed.

A fat-binding composition contains an inclusion complex with a host molecule and a guest molecule. The guest molecule includes one or more amino acids, vitamins, flavorants or related compounds, rutin, betanin, derivatives thereof, and mixtures thereof. The fat-binding composition may be in the form of a tablet or powder, for example, and may be incorporated into a food or beverage product. If in the form of a powder or tablet, the composition may optionally contain a carbonation-forming component and may be dissolved in carbonated or non-carbonated water. The fat-binding composition may also be employed in a method for binding fat ingested by an animal which includes having the animal ingest the composition, or a food or beverage product containing the same.

Compositions and methods are provided that enhance cognition in a human to which the composition is orally administered. Remarkably, clinical studies have proven that contemplated compositions achieved the desired effects using a minimal number of active ingredients at or near threshold active dosages, wherein such compositions almost exclusively comprise huperzine A, vinpocetine or rhodiola, and acetyl-L-carnitine, and optionally further include alpha lipoic acid, rhodiola, and biotin.

A composition includes a therapeutically effective pharmaceutical dosage form including a plurality of individual particulates. The individual particulates respectively have: a core including an active ingredient combination of an L-carnitine and a nootropic substance and a release controlling polymer over the core that substantially prevents release of the active ingredients in stomach acid and permits release of the active ingredients in an intestinal pH environment. The composition may be used to treat conditions associated with a reduction of the amount of L-carnitine in the body and/or cognitive impairment.
