Food in cirrhotic patients want to choose is very important in order to prevent further progression of the

disease. Choosing the right foods can ensure a minimum level of liver damage. Since the liver is not

working your entire capacity need to include foods that promote optimal functioning of the liver.

A high fiber diet-

Foods high in fiber are considered to be highly nutritious and free of unhealthy fats. That is why they are

included in the liver cirrhosis diet. Having lots of fruits and vegetables is the key to go through a high

fiber diet. Taking a well-balanced diet is necessary to stay away from poor nutrition, which is quite

common in patients with liver cirrhosis. Whole wheat bread, cooked broccoli, cooked peas, and fruits

such as bananas and oranges proper fiber intake and should be included in the liver cirrhosis diet.

Low fat foods-

Red meat, such as pork and lamb, as well as fried foods contain high amounts of saturated fat. As we all

know, breaking down fats during digestion takes place in the bile, the digestive juice produced by the

liver. However, this condition, the same as the liver is not functioning properly, it produces insufficient

amounts of bile, so their digestion.

Foods such as fish, skinless chicken (lean meat) is not only low in fat but high in protein. Intake of fish oil

is also useful in order to prevent further liver damage. You could either take fish oil or eat fish food

supplements. Fish oil is rich in omega 3 fatty acids, which can help stop the progression of liver cirrhosis.

However, eating raw fish, especially shellfish is not recommended because it is a type of bacteria that

can cause serious infection.
