Can people with fatty liver eat pork stomach?
Disease description:
Dad particularly likes eating pig's stomach (tripe), but he has fatty liver disease. I wonder if it's safe for him to eat it under these circumstances?
Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhao Haiming
Patients with fatty liver are generally advised not to eat pig stomach. Pig stomach is an animal organ that contains relatively high levels of cholesterol, which may negatively affect disease control after consumption. Individuals with fatty liver should primarily consume low-calorie, high-fiber, and high-protein foods. In addition to pig stomach, other high-cholesterol foods such as fatty meats, pork liver, and cakes should also be avoided to prevent worsening of the condition.
