Introduction / full article
Peliosis Hepatitis
Efficacy of Alternative and Other Treatments According to GRADE* Ranking:
Chlorella (Green Algae, Chlorella Pyrenoidosa) [1, 2, 3, 4]:
Please note, this management does NOT treat the condition itself. It may mildly help with some of the symptoms, and even then has insufficient evidence to back up this claim at present.
Recommendation: no recommendation (There is insufficient evidence to support claims that Chlorella helps to treat hepatitis in any way)
Grade of Evidence: very low quality of evidence
