It is related to obesity and unhealthy lifestyle habits, often presenting with hidden onset and no obvious symptoms. Modern medicine mainly focuses on lifestyle changes and medication for treatment, while traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes regulating the flow of vital energy.

Xiaqi Tang is a Chinese herbal formula used in the treatment of NAFLD, aimed at regulating the flow of vital energy in the four dimensions, soothing liver and descending lungs, warming and tonifying kidneys to restore normal energy circulation, achieving the therapeutic effect of NAFLD. The key to treatment lies in regulating the spleen and stomach functions, soothing the liver and descending the lungs, and warming and tonifying the kidneys to achieve the treatment effect of circular motion and endless circulation. Treatment should focus on eliminating dampness, tonifying the spleen, and regulating vital energy, strengthening the orderly rise and fall of energy circulation to achieve the goal of dispelling phlegm and removing stasis.
