Category I: Smoked food.
Smoked and roasted products are recognized as one of the top ten junk foods in the world. Generally, wood or other fuels are directly smoked and baked with smoke. When barbecuing, oil will drip into the fuel to produce smoke, and the smoke contains a high-activity indirect carcinogen called benzopyrene, which will make normal cells cancerous, so patients with liver disease should eat less.
Category II: Alcoholic food.
After drinking alcohol, ethanol can directly enter the blood circulation, forming acetaldehyde which is extremely toxic to the liver. People with normal liver can decompose acetaldehyde through acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, while patients with liver can't completely decompose acetaldehyde because they contain less acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. If acetaldehyde accumulates in the body, it will cause damage to the liver.
The third category: moldy food.
The production of moldy food will go through corruption and mildew, and a large number of mycotoxins, including Fusarium toxin, Penicillium toxin and aflatoxin, will be produced in this process. Among them, aflatoxin can only be decomposed when the temperature reaches 280℃, which is one of the internationally recognized pathogenic factors of liver cancer.
The fourth category: fried food.
Repeated high-temperature frying of food will not only destroy all kinds of nutrients in food, but also make unsaturated fatty acids form dimers, trimers and other toxic substances, which will induce liver cell canceration. Patients with liver disease should not eat it.
The fifth category: high-fat and high-calorie foods.
Fat needs to be broken down by glycogen in the human body. Eating a lot of high-calorie and high-fat foods will increase the burden on the liver, and the accumulated fat will also cause fatty liver. Therefore, patients with liver disease should choose light, low-calorie food to eat.
