Patient's question:
I'm already 55 this year, and my health hasn't been very good. Last week, I even had to be hospitalized because of some liver pain. After a thorough examination, the doctor told me I have mild fatty liver and asked me to pay close attention to my diet after discharge.Doctor's answer:
It can be cured. In terms of diet, it's important to control calorie intake to help break down and consume fat within liver cells. Obese individuals should gradually reduce their food intake to bring their weight down to the standard weight range. Based on standard weight, each kilogram of body weight can be provided with 84 to 105 kilojoules (20 to 25 kilocalories) of energy. Standard weight (kg) = height (cm) - 105 (or 100); for males over 165 cm, subtract 105, while for females and males under 165 cm, subtract 100. There are several treatment methods for fatty liver, but since symptoms vary among patients, the chosen treatment methods also differ. Therefore, patients need timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive targeted treatment.
