Can hepatitis C be completely cured

The transmission of hepatitis C is similar to that of AIDS, so many people mistakenly think it is AIDS, but this is actually a wrong idea. Although AIDS is difficult to cure, hepatitis C has a chance of being completely cured. If you want to completely cure hepatitis C, you must go to the hospital in time to cooperate with the doctor's treatment in the early stages of hepatitis C. Don't think that hepatitis C is a trivial matter, but when it breaks out, it is often too late to regret.

Interferon therapy

Interferon has two main functions. One is to fight against the hepatitis C virus and inhibit its "reproduction" in the human body. The other is to bidirectionally regulate the body's immune function and protect the liver. Here we will focus on the function of bidirectional regulation of human immunity. Under normal circumstances, the human body has a strong immune system that protects the normal functioning of the body and is always on guard against invasion by foreign enemies. When the hepatitis C virus appears in the human body, the human immune system will automatically recognize the hepatitis C virus. After determining it as an enemy of the human body, the human body's powerful immune system will be activated to attack the hepatitis C virus.

Hepatitis C patients should pay attention to 3 details in life

1. If you have been diagnosed with hepatitis C, you should quit drinking alcohol, because alcohol is very irritating to the liver and will accelerate the development of the disease; exercise regularly to strengthen your physical fitness; improve your diet and eat light, easily digestible, nutritious foods; ensure adequate rest and sleep, and avoid excessive fatigue.

2. Eat less sugar, less fat, avoid alcohol, and take less medicine; sugar can be converted into fat and accumulated in the body. Eating too much sugar will cause fatty liver over time. Alcohol is a big taboo for liver disease. Too much alcohol can be converted into acetaldehyde in the body and damage the liver. Drug abuse can also damage the liver. Various Chinese and Western medicines can cause drug-induced hepatitis. Hepatitis C patients must use medications under the guidance of an expert.

3. Lack of "iron". Hepatitis C patients sometimes have iron metabolism disorders. Too much iron in the body is very harmful to the liver and also interferes with interferon treatment. Therefore, hepatitis C patients should limit iron-containing foods, such as animal liver, and avoid using iron cookware.
