The main nutrients required by liver patients are as follows: Protein: Good protein promotes recovery of liver cells and prevents fat deposition. However, it is not good to consume protein in an unrestricted manner. We should decide the amount of protein to be consumed according to the various categories and periods of the disease. Generally speaking, if you have acute hepatitis, you should eat about 80 grams of protein per day; if you have cirrhosis, you should eat about 100 grams of protein per day. Sources of protein include rice, bread, milk, eggs, fish, tofu, meat, etc. Fats: Fats can increase the protein in food and raise the calories of food without increasing the amount of food. Since fat increases appetite, it will cause weight gain, so it can promote the speed of recovery. With acute hepatitis, the patient should eat 30 grams of fat per day, and with cirrhosis, 50 grams. Moreover, it is best for patients to consume fats that have been emulsified and are easy to digest. The sources of fat are milk, margarine, eggs, meat, etc. Sugar: A diet containing high amounts of sugar can protect the liver. A liver that contains a lot of glycogen keeps the liver functioning well and does not suffer from caloric deficiencies. Sources of sugars include rice, bread, taro, vegetables, fruits, etc. Vitamins: In the presence of liver disease, vitamin deficiency can occur even if the patient takes the usual amount of vitamins because the utilization of vitamins is impaired. In this case, the patient should take a large amount of vitamins. The vitamin B complex is particularly important in the treatment of liver disease. Sources of vitamins are milk, eggs, beans, vegetables, fruits, pork, fish roe, etc.
