Priscilla Hiromi Correa is a Brazilian dietitian with a special interest in the liver and people living with liver disease. Mark Pearce, Hepatitis Victoria's Communications Manager, spoke with her on a recent visit to our offices.

She recommends against 'fad' diets and is in favour of eating based on Australia's dietary recommendations, for optimum liver and general overall health.

"Nutrition is so important that through a better diet a patient might even be removed from the transplant waiting list," she says.

All Priscilla's recommendations come with a caveat for listeners; consult with your health practitioner about your personal circumstances before following any advice.
