That's a fantastic resource to share — thank you! Professor Bernadette Moore's talk from the PBC Foundation conference is a great starting point for understanding how diet and nutrition relate to PBC.
While watching, here are some key diet topics to look out for that are particularly relevant to PBC:
- Reducing sodium to help manage fluid buildup and swelling
- Limiting saturated fats since PBC can affect how your body absorbs fat
- Focusing on whole foods like leafy greens, whole grains, fatty fish, and nuts
- Watching fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) as PBC can affect absorption of these
- Choosing low-fat dairy to support bone health without the risks of saturated fat
A registered dietitian who understands PBC can also help tailor these general guidelines to your specific situation and stage of the condition. Always check with your doctor before making significant dietary changes or starting any supplements.
