Congratulations: on Quitting drinking Alcohol. DO not go back to it . Not even for social reason at least for now. Vit B complex especially B1, B2, B6 and B12 as well as Folic Acid are good. Eating healthy means High Fiber Low Cholesterol( NO RED MEAT) and Vegetable protein Complex carbohydrate diet is good. Drink Plenty plenty of water.

CONGRATULATIONS!: Take a MULTIVITAMIN especially with Vit B complex (THIAMINE most important)!! The liver is a great organ and if not permanently damaged (fibrosis/scarring) will regenerate on its own! Keep dry! One day at a time! Hope this helps Dr Z
