What Diet Should Be Taken For Inflamed Liver?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...my mother is a 50 year old single person who doctors says she has a very in flamed liver. She has not been taking care of herself since my parents divorced. Her personal dr told her it was very inflamed, can it be reversed or is it permanent, can she change her diet, I know she drinks but I don't know how much, what should she do at this point to reverse or make it better

Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

According to history your mother mostly having alcohol induce hepatitis....

First of all stop alcohol drinking.....

Low fat diet advisable as inflamned liver can't digest fat easily.
Refined food avoided.
Trans fat like junk food , ghee , butter ,,meat less .....
Green leafy veg more.

Take some good food for liver like.....
-mustard green
-spinach
-papaiya
-carrot
-dandelion
-grape fruit juice
-Indian gooseberry etc.....

Rest done....

If needed viral marker study done for viral hepatitis....

With keeping this in mind you can consult her to gastroenterologist.

Take care.
