What Diet To Follow With Jaundice?

hi, my 5 year old son had been detected with jaundice 20 days back. We followed our dr's advice & his recent report has shown his bilirubin level to be around 0.8. His SGPT is slightly higher at 78. Kindly recommend if I need to follow any particular diet for him.

Bilirubin level of 0.8 is normal. SGPT is slightly raised. Thus your son is recovering from jaundice. Jaundice affects the liver so if you avoid fatty diet then it will be a faster recovery. You should also give proper rest to your son till full recovery.
