Protein, which is rich in these foods, can repair liver cells and promote their regeneration. Normal people should consume more than 90 grams of high-quality protein every day. For people with impaired and weakened liver function, eating more high-protein foods is more conducive to the recovery of liver health.

3, eat more three bamboo shoots to protect the liver

E. coli in intestinal tract can synthesize bamboo shoot cellulose into vitamins needed by human body for one year, and can also synthesize compound waste that cannot be absorbed with bile acid, a cholesterol metabolite in intestinal tract, and excrete it. Lettuce leaves are rich in calcium, carotene and vitamin C. Lettuce can promote the secretion of gastric juice, digestive enzymes and bile, and help hepatitis B and C virus carriers and patients with chronic liver disease to increase their appetite. Asparagus contains; Nucleic acid, folic acid, glutathione, choline, arginine, mannan and peptidase rutin can effectively inhibit the growth of cancer cells.

4. Supplementing sugar can protect the liver

Few people know that sugar is an important substance to protect the liver. Each gram of glucose can provide about 70% of the energy needed by the human body, and sugar can also be synthesized into a substance called hepatic glycogen, which is stored in the liver to prevent the toxins ingested in the body from damaging liver cells. Except for diabetics, ordinary people can protect their livers by taking a proper amount of sugar every day.

Studies have shown that vitamin A can protect the liver and prevent and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells in the liver. It can restore normal tissue function and help chemotherapy patients reduce the recurrence rate of cancer. People can get enough vitamin A by eating a carrot, 65g chicken liver, 200g canned tuna or a glass of milk every day. In addition, tomatoes, carrots, spinach, animal liver, cod liver oil and dairy products also contain a lot of vitamin A.

6. supplement vitamin B.

B vitamins can accelerate the metabolism of substances and convert them into energy, which can not only "refuel" the liver, but also repair the liver function and prevent fatty degeneration of the liver, thus playing a role in preventing fatty liver. People who love drinking especially need vitamin B supplementation, because studies show that vitamin B can enhance the tolerance of the liver to alcohol, thus playing a role in protecting the liver. Because B vitamins can be dissolved in water and stay in the body for only a few hours, it is best to supplement them every day. Pork, soybeans, rice, mushrooms and other foods are rich in B vitamins. In addition to taking B vitamins from these foods, we can also choose some supplements appropriately.

Vitamin E can prevent liver tissue from aging. Malt, soybean, vegetable oil, nuts and green leafy vegetables are all rich in vitamin E.
