Patient's question:
My mom is 47 years old this year. She went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with mild fatty liver. I would like to consult the doctor about what medication to take, whether there are any risks, and how to treat mild fatty liver.Doctor's answer:
The patient is primarily suffering from fatty liver due to obesity. It is recommended to use a liver-protecting tablet containing malt selenium and the Chinese herbal medicine Schisandra chinensis to implement liver protection treatment. Through the liver-protecting effect, it can enhance the compression of fat within liver cells. At the same time, the efficacy of Schisandra chinensis and malt selenium can boost the vitality of liver cells, slow down the restoration of their self-repair function, thereby stabilizing the patient's condition and promoting their full recovery.Additionally, the patient should consume more high-fiber foods beneficial for fatty liver, such as corn bran, whole wheat flour, brown rice, nuts, beans, mushrooms, kelp, black fungus, and pear. At the same time, it is important to ensure adequate and proper hydration. Generally, adults need to drink 2000 ml of water daily, while the elderly should drink 1500 ml.
