Thank you for posting query at HCM.

insufficient data.
cause of hepatitis / jaundice not mentioned.

Alcohol should be strictly avoided if your Liver enzymes (ALT; AST) are 2 to 3 times the upper limit (means>100).
its better to let your liver enzymes return to normal and then you may continue drink once in a while.
however, better to avoid alcohol.
your also adviced ingest green vegetables, fruits daily.
avoid junk food and cold drinks.

if any further questions, feel free to ask.
