Features: Recently, there has been more reporting on hepatitis C. I believe everyone has seen it, but it seems that few people regard this viral hepatitis as something related to themselves. Anyway, it is estimated that there are 2 million hepatitis C patients in Japan, and more than half of them are unaware that they are patients. This book is aimed at those who worry about their liver due to long-term drinking, those who have been told "there is a problem with liver function" during check-ups, and those who are confused about viral infections. It explains what "liver disease" is and how it should be treated. After many years of fighting liver disease, I deeply feel that the liver is an "organ that becomes more important the more you understand it," and I will talk in plain language about what you should pay attention to in addition to your own body and the treatment methods you usually follow.
