Question

How to treat hepatitis in children?

Answer

Dietary Management Tips: Aim for a diverse diet. Patients with hepatitis do not need to emphasize dietary restrictions. The principle is to eat light, easy-to-digest, and nutritious foods. Proteins are the ‘raw materials’ of immune substances. Eating a moderate amount of poultry eggs, milk, soy milk, lean meat, and fish soup is beneficial for the repair, growth, and renewal of damaged liver cells, which can shorten the course of the disease and reduce the likelihood of chronic hepatitis. At the same time, it is important to consume more vegetables, especially green leafy vegetables, and maintain a healthy weight to prevent the occurrence of fatty liver due to obesity.
