Many liver disease can be prevented - and prevention is
cheaper and more comfortable than treatment.
Some simple, good-sense can prevent that you ever develop liver
disease. Details are given in the pull-down menus. A summary is given
below what you can do to avoid having a sick liver:
- Vaccination against hepatitis A and B
- 'Safe sex'
- A reasonable diet maintaining a body mass index
below 28; personally, I advise a Meditarrenean diet
- Regular movement - recommend is at least 45
minutes of fast walking or a similar physical exercise
- Reasonable use of alcohol
- Red wine in moderate amount (2 glasses)
reduces the cardiovascular risk
- Avoid beer (too many 'dumb calories') and
strong alcoholic beverages
- Beware that alcoholic liver disease can occur
even with moderate consumption (30 g of alcohol); if you are prone to
this and/or if you have problem with alcohol dependence absolute
abstinence from alcohol is recommended.
