Patient's question:
My husband usually hates eating pork heads and also dislikes drinking beer. I told him, but he doesn't listen. Now, the health check at work revealed that he has fatty liver. Before, he sometimes felt a bit uncomfortable with his liver when he came home from work, but I didn't take it seriously. I'm now worried that if it goes on for a long time, it might develop into liver cirrhosis.Doctor's answer:
1. Adjust the dietary structure again, advocating a high-protein, high-vitamin, low-sugar, and low-fat diet. Avoid or reduce the intake of animal fats and sweets (including sugary drinks). Eat more vegetables, fruits, and foods rich in fiber, as well as high-protein lean meats, river fish, and soy products. Do not snack, and avoid eating extra meals before bed.3. Appropriately increase physical activity to enhance the consumption of body fat. Running every day, at least 6 kilometers per hour, can achieve the effect of dietary control. Sit-ups or gym equipment exercises are also very beneficial.
4. Selenium is known as an important "liver-protecting factor." Supplementing with selenium can restore the activity of glutathione peroxidase in the liver to normal levels, which helps in liver health and protection. Selenium-rich milk thistle powder and schisandra are the main ingredients of liver-protecting tablets, which have immune-regulating health benefits.
