Once the liver is damaged, the liver function will be seriously reduced, which will directly endanger the physical and mental health of patients and cause obstacles to the operation of multiple systems in the whole body. After discovering patients with chronic liver disease, its treatment is a very long process, especially chronic hepatitis B or C, liver cirrhosis and ascites. Patients need to cooperate with doctors for long-term drug treatment and pay attention to diet adjustment. Clinically, patients with liver disease should pay more attention to the following five points:
1, protein intake:
Protein is the key chemical component of all cells in human body. Patients with liver disease should take enough protein, which is beneficial to balance liver function and promote liver reconstruction. Usually, the daily intake of protein by patients with liver diseases is converted into calories, accounting for about 15% of the total calories. Therefore, patients with liver disease can choose some high-quality protein ingredients, such as raw eggs and poultry, milk, beans and so on. It should be pointed out here that if patients' liver function has declined, they are likely to meet and fight for liver coma. At this time, the intake of egg white should be limited.
2. Balance heat:
The total daily calorie intake of patients with liver disease needs to be strictly controlled. Because insufficient calories will endanger the repair of tumor cells, while excessive calories will increase the pressure of liver metabolism and easily cause fatty liver. Therefore, it is necessary to control the total heat scientifically. Usually, the daily calorie intake of patients with liver disease should be adjusted to about 2000-2500 calories, which is roughly equivalent to the sum of the calories generated by a catty of milk, two eggs, 400g of dinner and a catty of fresh fruit.
3, vitamins can not be less:
Patients with liver disease should eat more ingredients containing vitamins, because chemicals such as vitamin B, unsaturated fat and vitamin C are often like this; It is beneficial to all normal basic metabolism and hepatocyte repair of the liver, and at the same time, it can reasonably alleviate the toxic effect of harmful substances on the liver and relieve symptoms such as fatigue and indigestion caused by liver disease. In fact, the best vitamins in food come from many fruits and green vegetables.
4. Pay attention to the cooking method of ingredients:
Patients with liver disease usually show symptoms such as indigestion, greasy feeling, abdominal distension after meals, nausea and vomiting. Therefore, patients should not only pay attention to the balance of diet, but also pay attention to the cooking methods of food to prevent frying, boiling oil and frying oil; Instead, try to use cooking methods such as steaming and boiling. At the same time, we should pay attention to prevent a large number of seasonings from being added, try to keep light food and keep the original flavor of ingredients.
5, avoid alcohol:
Liver is the most critical place for alcohol metabolism and dissolution, but both alcohol itself and metabolic chemicals caused by alcohol will cause harm to liver somatic cells. Both alcohol and acetaldehyde have toxic side effects on the liver. Long-term alcoholism can lead to alcoholic fatty liver, hepatitis and other problems. I suffer from chronic liver disease for a long time, and drinking heavily for a long time will accelerate the development trend of liver disease and even lead to complications of ascites due to cirrhosis.
Finally, it should also be noted that the adjustment of liver disease diet is only a part, and all ingredients cannot replace drugs. Therefore, after the diagnosis of chronic liver disease, in order to further control the development trend, what patients can do is to take the initiative to see a doctor, and then take targeted drugs according to the doctor's advice, and adjust their diet and living habits on the basis of drug treatment.
