Liver Diet
Liver Diet.
Anaemic patients often look askance at the idea of a liver diet, being under the impression that it is monotonous, but it need not become objectionable if a little care and imagination are blended towards the preparation of various dishes. The most fastidious tastes may then be perfectly satisfied.
While taking the liver diet, fats and sugar are restricted, and not more than one glass of milk, or 1 oz. of cream should be taken daily. Plenty of green vegetables, fresh fruit, etc., are beneficial. Cereals, potatoes, bread and puddings are included in the diet, together with a small quantity of underdone meat. Salt and condiments are partially banished.
