A member asked:

Have liver chirrosis and diabetes. is diet for good control of diabetes adequate for chirrosis control? struggling to know how to eat to manage both.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Complex problem: Diet is important in diabetes from the beginning, but is less of a factor in caring for cirrhosis until the advanced stages, which today often never happen. The key is finding the cause of the cirrhosis and treating it if possible -- improved diabetes management can often slow the progress of liver disease from another source. Trusting you do not have missed hemochromatosis. Best wishes.
