Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Shen Yonghua
Foods that can help increase serum albumin levels:
1. High-protein foods: including soybeans, yellow soybeans, tofu and other legumes, dairy products such as cow's milk and goat's milk, eggs such as chicken eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, as well as meats such as pork, lamb, beef, and fish. These foods are rich in protein that is not only easily digested and absorbed by the body but also effectively replenishes the protein required by the body, thereby increasing albumin levels relatively quickly.
2. Deep-sea fish: such as salmon, tuna, and hairtail fish, which are also excellent sources for increasing albumin. The nutrients they contain can provide raw materials for the liver to synthesize albumin.
3. Nuts and seeds: such as almonds, walnuts, and flaxseeds, which provide not only protein but also healthy fats and fiber, benefiting overall nutritional balance.
4. Whole grains and legumes: such as oats, quinoa, black beans, and red beans, which can serve as good supplemental sources of protein in the diet while providing abundant vitamins and minerals.
