Battling jaundice? Your liver is waving a yellow flag \u2014 and it is time to fuel your recovery with the right foods. Whether fresh out of the hospital or just starting to heal, what you eat can make or break your bounce-back.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jaundice and its impact on the liver<\/b><\/h2>\n

When you are diagnosed with jaundice, your skin and the whites of your eyes turn yellow, caused due to the presence of a yellow substance, called bilirubin, accumulating in your blood. Bilirubin is made when old red blood cells break down, and the liver removes it. But if the liver is not working well, due to infections like hepatitis<\/strong><\/a>, too much alcohol, or blocked bile ducts, it cannot get rid of bilirubin properly. So, it builds up in the body. Jaundice shows that your liver is stressed and needs rest, good food, and proper care to recover.<\/span><\/p>\n

Importance of a balanced diet\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

Diet is crucial in the recovery and prevention of jaundice. During digestion, the liver produces bile, a digestive fluid, which helps the intestines break down fats. The liver is also responsible for processing most nutrients, toxins, and medications a person consumes. All foods and drinks<\/strong><\/a> place demands on the liver. However, some nutrients and chemicals in some foods are easier to metabolize than others. Toxins, such as alcohol and certain medications, may also damage liver cells during metabolism. A balanced diet that includes foods from all groups and focuses on those containing fiber is especially beneficial.<\/span><\/p>\n
