Patient's question:
Here I would like to consult some related questions about fatty liver. I am 33 years old and from Henan. I have had fatty liver for more than ten years and it has not been cured yet. Now the condition is getting worse and worse. I am very anxious and would like to learn about some relevant treatment methods for fatty liver.Doctor's answer:
Foods rich in methionine, such as millet, buckwheat noodles, sesame, rapeseed, spinach, cauliflower, beetroot, shrimp, scallops, and clams, can enhance the production of phospholipids in the body and aid in the transformation of fat within liver cells. A high-protein diet, providing 1.2 to 1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight daily, can protect liver cells and promote their repair and regeneration. Protein intake should include high-quality proteins in appropriate proportions, such as tofu, bean curd, lean meat, fish, shrimp, and skim milk. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a serious condition, and patients are advised to start treatment immediately. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, dietary issues should be addressed, avoiding spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
