Patient's question:
A roommate of mine suffers from lupus, and I'm going to visit him in a few days. I'd like to ask what dietary precautions lupus patients should take?Doctor's answer:
My roommate has lupus, which is an autoimmune disease. These diseases generally do not have specific dietary restrictions. It is mainly recommended to eat more fruits, vegetables, and foods rich in vitamins and dietary fiber. A diversified and balanced diet is important. Additionally, certain underwear should be chosen to reduce autoimmune function. During acute phases, if fever occurs, antipyretic and analgesic medications should be taken.
