Patient's question:
What should Big Sister pay attention to in her diet after suffering from lupus? She usually loves spicy food very much, can she not eat it now?Doctor's answer:
Lupus is a chronic, systemic autoimmune inflammatory disease that affects multiple organs and tissues. The exact cause is not clear, but it is believed to be related to factors such as immunity, genetics, and infection. In terms of diet, it is important to pay attention to eating foods high in protein, while also being mindful of low-sodium and low-fat diets. Fresh vegetables and fruits should be consumed more, and spicy or irritating foods should be avoided. It is recommended that your cousin adjust their dietary habits to avoid spicy foods.
