Hello,
With the question “Can people with hepatitis B do gymnastics? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You can exercise normally. Foods to eat when having hepatitis B:
Hepatitis B patients should eat a lot of green vegetables, tubers and fruits to provide enough vitamins, fiber and minerals for the body. According to experts, every day patients should eat at least one dark green vegetable and one orange vegetable such as carrots, tomatoes, pumpkins.... Fruits rich in Vitamin C such as grapefruit, oranges, tangerines... Should eat foods containing a lot of protein but low in fat such as lean chicken, fish... Drinking a glass of cow's milk every day is very good for the regeneration of the liver. It is recommended to use vegetable oils (olive oil, soybean oil...) in processing instead of animal fat. Food should be processed into boiled or steamed dishes instead of deep-frying. Eat small meals and drink plenty of water to help the liver detox faster. It is best to abstain from the use of beer, wine, and alcoholic beverages. Limit the intake of spicy foods such as chili, pepper, mustard powder, garlic, ginger, and foods high in cholesterol such as animal organs (heart, liver, lungs, stomach...) Besides the diet. Patients should also have a reasonable lifestyle and rest regime such as:
Get enough sleep, don't stay up too late to avoid increasing the burden on the liver. Every day should practice sports regularly, patients should not choose subjects that consume a lot of energy, should only practice gentle subjects such as jogging, badminton, yoga... Keep the mind comfortable and happy. look, avoid negative thoughts. If you still have questions about whether people with hepatitis B can exercise, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice.
