Eat fat in moderation. Due to pancreatic insufficiency and decreased bile salt secretion in liver cirrhosis, nearly half of patients with liver cirrhosis have seborrhea and fat malabsorption. Therefore, in order to increase calories, patients should not restrict fat too strictly, and should focus on vegetable oil.
Vitamin c supplement. Increasing the concentration of vitamin C in the body can protect the resistance of hepatocytes and promote the regeneration of hepatocytes. The concentration of vitamin C in ascites is equal to that in blood, so a large amount of vitamin C should be supplemented in ascites, and fruits should be peeled or juiced for drinking.
Patients with liver cirrhosis often have poor appetite, so they should be given food that is easy to digest and absorb, a small amount of meals, non-irritating soft food and fine food. Avoid hard and rough foods, such as fried foods and hard fruits. The immune function of the body can be selected from various sources of protein food. Include bean products, fish, lean meat and eggs.
Ensuring sufficient carbohydrates can not only provide enough calories for the body, but also make the body fully store glycogen to prevent toxins from damaging liver cells, which is beneficial to liver cell regeneration and reduce protein consumption.
