Patient's question:
My classmate, a successful person, had a good meal at the banquet recently. His wife always says he spends more time at the dinner table than at home, coming back every day drunk. A few days ago, he went for a health check-up and was diagnosed with mild fatty liver. His wife was very worried and asked if there were any good methods to improve his condition without medication, perhaps through dietary adjustments.Doctor's answer:
For patients with mild fatty liver, it is recommended to follow a low-fat diet, a low-cholesterol diet, and quit smoking and drinking alcohol. Eat more vegetables. If liver function is normal, treatment may not be necessary. If liver function is abnormal, liver-protective treatment should be administered. Pay close attention to avoid overexertion, adhere to a ban on alcohol, and avoid medications harmful to the liver. Drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and consume foods rich in vitamin B and vitamin C. If you must take medication, you can have some:Excessive medication can actually cause liver damage. Since all medications are metabolized and processed by the liver, they can cause varying degrees of liver damage. In fact, fatty liver is not as terrifying as it may seem. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as treatment is timely when detected early, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
