During Tet, you should limit the consumption of beer, alcohol and greasy foods as much as possible, as this can easily overload the liver. Instead, you should choose vegetables and healthy foods, prioritizing steamed and boiled dishes.
Nutritionist Le Thao Nguyen - Nam Sai Gon International General Hospital - shared that Tet is an occasion for everyone to gather and share joy, along with long parties, which means we will consume a large amount of beer, alcohol and greasy food. This can easily overload the liver - the body's detoxification organ.
Below are some methods to help prevent hepatitis and fatty liver during Tet as follows:
Proper diet
Choose healthy foods that prioritize steamed and boiled dishes. In addition, you should divide your meals into smaller portions to reduce pressure on the liver, helping the liver to easily process and absorb nutrients without being overloaded. You need to eat a full and balanced diet of the four main food groups (carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals). Limit fried foods because they add a lot of cholesterol to the body.

Drink enough water
Water will help detoxify the liver effectively, in addition, you can also supplement herbal teas such as green tea, artichoke tea to support the liver. Overweight and obesity are also one of the causes of fatty liver disease and hepatitis. We should limit the use of foods containing a lot of saturated fat, instead use unsaturated fats such as olive oil, salmon oil, ...
Alcohol is the main cause of liver damage. If you cannot avoid it completely, drink in moderation and avoid drinking on an empty stomach. Drink slowly and in moderation to give your body time to process the alcohol you have taken in. Eat before drinking to limit the absorption of alcohol into your body. Do not mix different types of alcohol together or combine alcohol with substances such as sugar, caffeine, sodium, etc. Do not drink alcohol while taking medication. After drinking alcohol, the body can easily become dehydrated, so it is necessary to replenish water after drinking alcohol, especially in cases of drunkenness.
Eat more fruit
Minerals, fiber, phytochemicals, vitamins in vegetables and fruits are essential for the body to fight many diseases. In addition, when losing weight to wear Tet clothes, it is important to note that you should lose weight gradually, not suddenly because it will harm the liver.
Eat more fruits to supplement vitamins and minerals.
Proper training
Maintain regular exercise even during the holidays to improve health, stabilize weight and shape. In addition, regular exercise also helps improve the heart's ability to pump blood, reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reduce anxiety, depression and improve mood.
In addition to eating healthy, maintaining good habits such as exercising and moving regularly will help the liver function effectively, while improving blood circulation. In particular, getting enough sleep is an important factor to help the body recover and enhance the liver's detoxification ability. These habits are simple, but help keep the liver healthy and the body ready to welcome a new year full of energy.
