    Abstract:

    Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is a chronic progressive disease with no effective drug therapy. The characteristics of multi-target and multi-pathway treatment using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are highly consistent with the overall regulation effect of the gut microbiota. TCM can be used to treat ALD by improving the gut microbiota structure, restoring the gut barrier function, and relieving gut inflammation. This report focuses on the progress in research of the use of TCM to regulate ALD, summarizes the relationship between the gut microbiota and ALD, and discusses the role of TCM in ALD in terms of its regulation of the gut microbiota, improvement of the gut microbiota structure, restoration of the gut barrier function, and relief of gut inflammation. The overall aim of this report is to provide a reference for the study of the mechanism of TCM in the treatment of ALD.
