HI welcome to HCM.

Noted he has having gilbert syndrome.
In this syndrome congenital uncojugated hyperbilirubenemia is present....

Just now he is having jaundice and elevated liver enzymes....
So bed rest is done....
Rest liver by taking low fat diet....
Take more fruits like apple, mango , papaiya , grapes etc...
Sugarcain juice useful....
In lunch give him green leafy salad....
In dinner vegetable soup taken....

Skipped milk with jaggey can be taken....

The gilbert syndrome patient usually survive well with intermittent jaundice.

Hope your concern solved.
