What foods should people with hepatitis B avoid?

Patient's question:

I have hepatitis B and am a carrier of the virus. It is hereditary in my family, and I currently get liver function tests done every month. They are still relatively normal. However, I often feel weak and tired. I have to walk about ten minutes after work every day, and even that short distance is quite exhausting.
What foods should hepatitis B patients avoid?

Doctor's answer:

Hepatitis B is a chronic liver disease and also a contagious infection with a certain genetic component. Hepatitis B patients should try to avoid drinking beer and smoking as much as possible, as these can be very harmful to their health. They can eat more protein-rich foods, such as eggs and lean meat, and engage in appropriate exercise. The condition of hepatitis B is very serious, and patients are advised to seek immediate treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, dietary issues should be paid attention to, avoiding spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
