Patient's question:
My father-in-law has been told repeatedly in recent years' health check-ups that he has fatty liver. He has been advised to eat less animal liver and similar foods, and to pay attention to his diet. I haven't seen him take any medicine, and he hasn't felt any discomfort in his body, so he just considers it nothing serious and continues to eat and drink as usual. He has just cut down on fatty foods.Doctor's answer:
The key points to pay attention to are first and foremost the prohibition of alcohol; secondly, controlling diet well by consuming sufficient carbohydrates, high protein, low-fat, and low-cholesterol foods, while moderately increasing the intake of coarse grains, vegetables, and fruits, and reducing snacks. Adequate physical exercise is also necessary to reduce weight and completely eliminate obesity. For mild cases, generally paying attention to diet should suffice, and medication is not necessary. For severe fatty liver patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention as early as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid blindly using medication to worsen the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
