What should hepatitis B patients pay attention to in diet

1. Avoid high copper diet: the balance of copper in the body can not be well regulated when the liver function is not complete, and copper is easy to accumulate in the liver. Studies have shown that the storage of copper in the liver of patients with liver disease is 5-10 times that of normal people, and the content of copper in the liver of patients with biliary cirrhosis is 60-80 times higher than that of normal people. Medical experts pointed out that excessive copper in the liver can lead to necrosis of liver cells. At the same time, excessive copper in the body can cause renal insufficiency. Therefore, patients with liver disease should eat less jellyfish, squid, shrimp, snails and other foods containing more copper.   

2. Avoid smoking: smoke contains a variety of toxic substances, can damage liver function, inhibit liver cell regeneration and repair, so patients with liver disease must quit smoking.   

3. Avoid drinking alcohol: 90% of alcohol should be metabolized in the liver. Alcohol can disturb and destroy the normal enzyme system of liver cells, so it directly damages liver cells and makes them necrotic. Patients with acute or chronic active hepatitis, even if a small amount of alcohol, will make the condition repeated or changed.
