What is good to eat for fatty liver?
Patients with fatty liver should focus on a diet rich in high-quality proteins and vitamins. Foods that are rich in high-quality protein mainly include lean meats, fish, shrimp, beans, and eggs. Additionally, fresh vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, so these foods should be consumed in larger quantities. Furthermore, patients with fatty liver should also pay attention to the mix of coarse and refined staples in their diet, avoiding excessive consumption of refined foods. It is advisable to incorporate some whole grains into the diet, such as oats, corn, and brown rice. Additionally, fatty meats, animal organs, and other fatty foods should be avoided. Meals should be well-balanced and nutritionally diverse, and it is important to abstain from smoking and drinking alcohol, as well as to avoid excessively oily and fatty foods.
Does irritable bowel syndrome cause dizziness?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional gastrointestinal disorder, primarily characterized by abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits and stool characteristics. Changes in stool typically involve alternating constipation and diarrhea; sometimes it presents as constipation and other times as diarrhea. These symptoms alternate, and the abdominal pain is related to defecation; that is, the pain usually subsides after a bowel movement. This condition tends to recur frequently. Dizziness is rarely a symptom of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. If dizziness occurs, it is crucial to rule out other possible diseases that could cause dizziness, such as common conditions like hypertension, cervical spondylosis, or vertigo, among others. Tests should be conducted to exclude these diseases as the cause of dizziness, since IBS seldom results in dizziness.
Is infusion effective for irritable bowel syndrome?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional gastrointestinal disorder, characterized primarily by abdominal pain accompanied by changes in bowel habits and stool characteristics. The abdominal pain is related to bowel movements, and typically eases after defecation. This condition is a functional disorder, meaning that it does not exhibit any organic problems; that is, medical examinations do not reveal any physical abnormalities. It manifests merely as a series of symptoms. Therefore, what type of infusion should be used for this disease? Anti-inflammatory or rehydration? Infusions are generally ineffective. Usually, oral probiotics are used to adjust the intestinal flora to improve symptoms. Alternatively, oral traditional Chinese medicine can also be administered to alleviate the symptoms.
The symptoms of atrophic gastritis include:
The primary symptoms of atrophic gastritis include upper abdominal distension and pain, post-meal fullness, early satiety, belching, acid reflux, nausea, and vomiting. Some patients may also experience weight loss, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and forgetfulness. Additionally, some may suffer from dizziness, weakness, and pale complexion. If the gastric mucosa is eroded or even bleeding, it can lead to gastric bleeding and result in anemia. In terms of treatment, the primary approach is the eradication of Helicobacter pylori, using a regimen that includes a proton pump inhibitor, two types of antibiotics, and a bismuth agent. Additionally, treatments include acid suppression, gastric protection, and enhancing gastric motility. Traditional Chinese medicine and herbal treatments are also very important methods for treating atrophic gastritis.
How to treat erosive gastritis without Helicobacter pylori?
Erosive gastritis primarily presents symptoms such as upper abdominal distension, belching, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, and indigestion. Diagnosis can be confirmed through gastroscopy, which reveals erosion of the gastric mucosa. If Helicobacter pylori is negative, treatment for erosive gastritis should involve acid suppression, gastric protection, enhancement of gastric motility, and protection of the gastric mucosa. A treatment period of four to six weeks can generally lead to recovery. Additionally, dietary adjustments are crucial: avoid smoking and alcohol, refrain from drinking strong tea and coffee, and do not consume greasy, rich, spicy, fried, grilled, sweet, or cold foods. Milk, soy milk, glutinous rice, and sweet potatoes should also be avoided, favoring instead a diet that is easy to digest. Simultaneously, it is important to increase physical activity to enhance gastrointestinal motility and avoid staying up late.
What are the symptoms of reflux esophagitis?
The common symptoms of reflux esophagitis include chest pain, bloating in the upper abdomen, belching, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, etc. If these symptoms occur, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a gastroscopy. If the gastroscopy reveals damage or ulcers on the mucous membrane of the esophagus, it can be diagnosed as reflux esophagitis. Reflux esophagitis is classified into four grades based on the size of the mucosal damage. Grade A is the lowest and as the grade increases, it indicates a higher severity of the condition. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, standardized treatment should be administered. The treatment mainly includes acid suppression, promoting gastric motility, and protecting the mucosa. The general course of treatment lasts about eight weeks, after which the symptoms can disappear, and the disease can be cured.
What can you eat with indigestion?
Indigestion can be observed in various gastric diseases such as gastrointestinal dysfunction, chronic gastritis, and peptic ulcers, all of which can exhibit symptoms of indigestion. When experiencing symptoms of indigestion, attention must also be paid to diet. Firstly, one must quit smoking and drinking alcohol, avoid strong tea, coffee, fatty and heavy foods, spicy foods, fried foods, grilled foods, raw and cold foods, as well as sweets. One should avoid consuming milk, soy milk, glutinous rice, sweet potatoes, and other such foods. This is because some of these foods can increase gastric acid secretion leading to a worsening of gastric diseases, and some are difficult to digest, exacerbating symptoms of indigestion; therefore, they are not recommended. It is advised to increase physical activity, as exercise can promote gastrointestinal motility, which is effective in improving symptoms of indigestion.
What are the symptoms of reflux esophagitis?
Common symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) include upper abdominal distension, chest pain, belching, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, and indigestion. Gastroscopy may reveal lesions in the esophageal mucosa, facilitating a GERD diagnosis. Lesion sizes and severity are graded from A to D (ABCD), with Grade A being the mildest and Grade D the most severe. The main treatments include promoting gastric motility, suppressing acid production, and protecting the gastric mucosa, typically over an eight-week course. GERD is closely related to poor gastric motility, so patients are advised to increase physical activity, which can help enhance gastrointestinal motility and strengthen gastric motility, alleviating GERD symptoms.
What should people with fatty liver not eat?
Patients with fatty liver should not drink alcohol or eat greasy, rich, and heavy foods such as fatty meats and fried foods, nor should they consume animal organs. They should eat more fruits and vegetables and more coarse grains. At the same time, they should increase physical activity, as exercise can promote the metabolism of fats and has a positive effect for patients with fatty liver. Additionally, patients with fatty liver should not overwork or stay up late, as fatigue and lack of sleep can damage liver cells, leading to an increase in transaminase levels. This is especially detrimental for patients with fatty liver, as they are more susceptible to liver cell damage. Moreover, excessive anxiety or being prone to anger can also harm the liver, and is harmful to patients with fatty liver; thus, it is important to maintain a relaxed mood.
What should I do if I have cholecystitis?
The main symptoms of cholecystitis include sudden onset of pain in the upper right abdomen, which can radiate to the back or right shoulder. It commonly occurs after consuming a large amount of fatty foods or during the night. Symptoms also include fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, and less desire to eat. A routine blood test will show increased white blood cells and neutrophils. An upper abdominal CT or abdominal ultrasound can detect cholecystitis. In terms of treatment, the first approach is symptomatic treatment, which can involve using antispasmodic and analgesic medications. The second approach is anti-inflammatory treatment. Furthermore, the diet should be light and easy to digest, and fatty, rich, and greasy foods should be avoided.
