Patient's question:
I work in a government agency. Due to work-related reasons, I often have to drink beer, which led to a thorough check-up revealing that I have fatty liver disease a few days ago.Doctor's answer:
Patients with fatty liver should enhance rather than increase the variety of daily food intake. Except for breast milk, no natural food can provide the body with all the necessary nutrients. The daily human body requires less than 40 types of nutrients, and relying on one or a few simple foods cannot meet the nutritional needs of patients with fatty liver. Therefore, it is essential to consume a wide range of foods in appropriate proportions, including grains, animal products, vegetables and fruits, soy products, dairy products, and fats, to achieve a balanced diet and meet the body's various nutritional needs. Faced with the dangers of fatty liver, patients should actively undergo examinations and treatments without avoiding medical visits. If the fatty liver does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
