What is a good diet for hepatitis C patients?

Although there is no specific diet for hepatitis C patients, eating lots of vegetables and fruits and reducing unhealthy fats and sugars in the diet is recommended, according to WebMD. Alcohol consumption should be limited or eliminated altogether.

General dietary guidelines for people with hepatitis C include eating regular balanced meals that include whole-grain breads and cereals and consuming an adequate amount of protein, notes the U.S. Department for Veterans Affairs. Maintaining a healthy caloric intake, drinking sufficient fluids and reducing salt, fat and sugar in the diet are also helpful. Meals should be from a mix of grains, vegetable and fruits, dairy products, and meats.
