Patient's question:
My best friend's father was diagnosed with fatty liver disease by the hospital just yesterday. What should we do? Our whole family relies on this pillar. If he gets sick, our lives will face problems. I think I should consult about the relevant situation and treatment methods.Doctor's answer:
Find the cause and take targeted measures. Long-term heavy drinkers should quit alcohol. Overfed and obese individuals should strictly control their diet to restore physical health. Diabetic patients with fatty liver should actively and effectively control their blood sugar. Malnourished fatty liver patients should appropriately enhance their nutrition, especially protein and vitamin intake. In summary, removing the cause is essential for the spontaneous healing of fatty liver. Adjust the dietary structure, advocating a high-protein, high-vitamin, low-sugar, and low-fat diet. Eat or eat less animal fat and sweets (including sugary drinks). Eat green vegetables, fruits, and fiber-rich foods, as well as high-protein lean meat, river fish, and soy products, avoiding snacks and additional meals before bedtime.
