The liver is a very important organ in the human body, with the function of regulating the body's metabolism, secreting and excreting bile, detoxification and maintaining the body's coagulation and anticoagulation balance, if the human liver has problems, then the above functions may be affected. Patients with hepatitis B are more susceptible to liver damage and abnormal liver function due to infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV). Therefore, the liver of hepatitis B patients is more fragile than that of normal people, and they should pay more attention to their living habits, protect their livers, and stay away from the following "liver destruction details".
1. Avoid bad habits
Hepatitis B patients should pay attention to healthy eating in their daily lives, first of all, choose fresh and healthy ingredients and cooking methods. Such as fresh vegetables and fruits, eggs with high protein content, milk and soy products, fish and shrimp and other seafood, such foods are very healthy for our liver, cooking methods choose to steam or boil, try to avoid frying, frying, frying, roasting, pickling and so on.
Secondly, we must live a regular life, go to bed early and get up early, and do not stay up late. After 10 p.m. is the best time for the human liver to detoxify and metabolize, if you stay up late during this period of time, the damage to the liver will be very large, so hepatitis B patients should avoid staying up late.
Finally, quit smoking and drinking and stay optimistic. Tobacco and alcohol are carcinogens, alcohol will be worse for the liver of hepatitis B patients, Chinese medicine often says that anger hurts the liver, so it is also very important to maintain a happy mood.
Second, do not exercise
In addition to strengthening the body's immunity and strengthening the body, the most important thing is to reduce liver fat deposition. When the body consumes more calories than it consumes, excess energy will be deposited in the form of fat in the organs and body, and the fatty liver will be deposited in the liver. After the liver cells are filled with fat, the metabolic capacity is weakened, and the liver function of hepatitis B patients who originally carried hepatitis B virus in the liver cells was impaired, so the burden of the two superimposed on the liver was heavier.
3. Drug-induced liver injury
Hepatitis B patients usually take various drugs to treat hepatitis B, in addition, if other diseases occur, it is inevitable to take other drugs. There are currently more than 1,100 potentially hepatotoxic drugs worldwide, so be more careful when taking them. It is recommended to consult a specialist or specialist pharmacist when taking the drug.
Domestic related reports causing drug-induced liver injury ranked first in traditional Chinese medicine (23%), second was anti-infective drugs (17.6%), third was anti-tumor drugs (15%), followed by hormone drugs, cardiovascular drugs, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and so on. Due to the complex composition of traditional Chinese medicine preparations, it is difficult to study and determine which ingredients are caused after liver damage caused by many compound preparations such as traditional Chinese medicine decoctions and ointments, so hepatitis B patients try to avoid taking complex traditional Chinese medicine preparations or folk remedies.
summary
In short, hepatitis B patients to protect the liver, need to pay attention to these "liver destruction details", try to avoid stepping into the minefield, and need to pay attention to regular physical examination, under the guidance of liver disease specialists to do targeted liver-related examinations, if necessary, need to standardize the use of antiviral drugs, so that you can stay away from liver lesions and maintain health.
