Q: Dear Prof. Torzilli, what is the best diet to follow in cases of liver cancer?

 

A: Dear User, essentially the diet depends on the conditions relating to the liver cancer and the same are dependent on concomitant diseases (for example cirrhosis), or by a malfunction generated by the presence of the cancer itself. Generally, the liver tolerates good carbohydrates (be aware  of cases where the cancer co-occurs with diabetes!), very little fat and very little alcohol. Best regards.
