They are recognized by PRRs [e.g., lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria (recognized by TLR4), flagellin (TLR5), lipoteichoic acid and peptidoglycan from Gram-positive bacteria (TLR2), viral nucleic acids, like double-stranded RNA (TLR3) and unmethylated CpG DNA (TLR9)], triggering the innate immune response
The main practical disadvantages are: poor absorption in standard capsule form, the need for consistent daily use over 8-12+ weeks before visible results, relatively higher cost for well-absorbed formats, mild and uncommon side effects like digestive discomfort or headache in some users, and the risk of unrealistic expectations from aggressive marketing claims

Other possible mechanisms to improve insulin sensitivity in NAFLD reported in the literature include the regulation of the acetyl-CoA/CoA ratio in mitochondria, modulation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) activity, altering the expression of glycolytic and gluconeogenic enzymes as well as the expression of genes associated with the insulin signaling cascade, and stimulation of the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) axis and IGF-1 signaling cascade (55)
