During the acute phase of viral hepatitis, liver function is generally significantly abnormal. Patients may experience symptoms such as fatigue, poor appetite, abdominal bloating after eating, and nausea and vomiting. Some may also develop jaundice and yellow urine. For patients with viral hepatitis, it is first recommended to rest in bed. At the same time, a light and low-fat diet should be maintained, and spicy and stimulating foods should be avoided. Therefore, it is not recommended for patients with viral hepatitis to consume spicy and stimulating foods like garlic and chili peppers during the acute phase. It is advisable to eat light foods such as fruits and vegetables. Consuming fatty foods, like pork, lamb, and beef, is also not recommended. Eating these foods may lead to indigestion, and patients may experience significant stomach discomfort.
