Foods To Avoid During Jaundice
With the home remedies for jaundice, there are certain restrictions in terms of food for Jaundice patients and they should avoid the below-mentioned food items completely.

Consuming Alcohol, coffee or tea is strictly prohibited.
Avoid the roadside foods like noodles, panipuri, chaats etc. as it is mostly contaminated and can completely damage the liver.
Do not opt for any outside food for at least a month or so from jaundice because there are high chances that you may get Jaundice again. The liver takes its own time to heal and eating non-desirable food can put in lot of pressure on the liver.


The person suffering from jaundice should be very cautious in food and should have a diet which is a very good source of calcium and minerals.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are highly recommended.
Drink lot of water and juices as it will help to flush toxins and free radicals from the body and helps to strengthen the liver.
Eat light food almost after a week of jaundice to facilitate normal digestion by the liver.

Opt for only fresh juice and water during the first week of jaundice and slowly you can start eating fruits and vegetables.
Drink boiled and purified water only.


Conclusion
Jaundice is mostly caused by the contamination of the water and it really makes the liver very weak. Therefore, it is ideal to have food from home rather than outside. However, in case you are extremely lured by the street food always opt for a decent place for the same.


However, always remember do not eat anything outside for 1-2 months post jaundice. Also, if you see that the symptoms do not subside post 2 weeks, consult a doctor immediately and take medicines.
As a caution do not jump or hop around while you are suffering from Jaundice. Your body is low on immunity and needs sufficient rest during this time. Any kind of extreme physical activity may rupture the liver in worst circumstances.
