Patient's question:
I am 33 years old this year, and my health has been very poor recently. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was indeed diagnosed with hepatitis B. The doctor recommended that I go home to take medication and pay attention to my diet.Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B patients should base their daily diet on light foods, eat small meals frequently, and add 2-3 snacks between meals. Once their appetite improves, they should avoid overeating to prevent excessive fullness from increasing the pressure on liver cell regeneration. Hepatitis patients should strictly abstain from alcohol and smoking, avoid fried foods and strongly stimulating seasonings, and drink plenty of water, such as 1500 mL daily, to promote metabolic breakdown, accelerate the reduction of bilirubin, and eliminate toxins.In addition, during hepatitis B treatment, in addition to timely medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. Patients must maintain a light diet while keeping a consistently cheerful and optimistic attitude to avoid unnecessary negative impacts on the complete recovery of hepatitis B.
