      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Seventy diabetic patients with inclusion criteria who have fatty liver in ultrasound that graded based on the Saverymuttu Scoring System by a radiologist will enter the stydy. After justifying them to the study and obtaining written informed  consent will be divided in two groups of 35 patients, A and B with use of random numbers, Blinding description: Medication is made by a personal centre that has no relation with the patients and the research team and from the beginning, it is classified into two groups A and B with a completely similar appearance. The patients are 
 also fully aware of the way the program is performed, but they do not know whether they are receiving the main medicine or the placebo. And the researcher who is related to the patients, as well as physicians who perform paraclinical and therapeutic procedures of the patients are not aware of which group of patients are in the intervention, as well as the collector information and data and statistics consultant are not aware of the content of these two groups.</study_design>
