In my practice as a doctor, I often encounter many patients who are suffering from hepatitis. Hepatitis not only affects the health of the patient, but also brings a lot of trouble to the patient's life. However, in the face of this challenge, I have found that in addition to medical treatment, proper dietary management also plays a crucial role. Through intimate communication with patients, I not only shared medical knowledge, but also provided practical dietary principles to help them better protect their liver health. Not long ago, a patient, let's call Xiao Wang, came to my clinic for treatment. Xiao Wang is a successful entrepreneur, but recently he has been plagued by hepatitis. In the face of his condition, I not only gave him professional treatment advice, but more importantly, introduced him to the dietary principles that hepatitis patients should follow.
Xiao Wang," I said to him with a smile, "you know what? Diet also plays a very important role in the fight against hepatitis. We often say 'eat more than two and eat less', which means eating more fruits, vegetables and high-quality protein and less high-fat foods, fried foods and too many sweet drinks. Xiao Wang listened to my suggestion and a relieved smile appeared on his face. He told me that he used to be very casual about his eating habits, but now he realizes how important it is for his health. I saw hope in his eyes and was convinced that with good dietary management, he could overcome hepatitis and regain his health and vitality.
Dietary principles for hepatitis patients: eat more than two
1. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables
Fruits and vegetables are a good choice for people with hepatitis. They are rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber, which help boost immunity and promote the liver's detoxification function. For example, common fruits and vegetables such as apples, oranges, spinach, and broccoli are ideal.
2. Eat plenty of high-quality protein-rich foods
High-quality protein is essential for the recovery of liver function. Fish, chicken, legumes, and nuts are all foods rich in high-quality protein. They provide the nutrients that the liver needs and help maintain the normal functioning of the body. By combining fruits and vegetables with foods rich in high-quality protein, hepatitis patients can provide adequate nutrients for liver health and help the body better cope with the challenges of the disease.
Eat less to protect your liver
Hepatitis, is a common liver disease, which may bring a lot of discomfort to our body and affect our lives. In addition to prompt medical attention and medication, our diet is also crucial. Today I will talk to you about one of the dietary principles of hepatitis patients: eat less.
Eat less high-fat foods
High-fat foods may put a strain on the liver, making it even heavier. Therefore, we should try to eat less high-fat foods. Alternatives to high-fat foods are also important. For example, we can choose low-fat dairy products, lean meat and other foods instead of high-fat foods, which can reduce the burden on the liver and is conducive to liver health.
Eat less fried and greasy foods
Fried and greasy foods may bring adverse effects to the liver, increase the burden on the liver, and lead to further damage to liver function. Therefore, we should try to eat less of this kind of food and choose healthy cooking methods, such as steaming, boiling, baking, etc., which can reduce the intake of fats and protect liver health.
Eat less sweets and beverages
Too much sweets and beverages may lead to problems such as obesity and fatty liver, increase the burden on the liver, and affect the health of the liver. Therefore, we should try to eat too few sweets and beverages, and choose low-sugar or sugar-free foods and drinks to maintain the health of the body.
