High bilirubin, heavy stomac after food
I am having mild jaundice with elevated bilirubin around 2.96. I feel slight yellowing in eyes and mild abdominal pain near the navel. I recently took antibiotics after dental treatment and now facing digestion issues. Please guide me about proper diet, foods to avoid, and recovery plan.
My medicines were completed on 3rd March, after that food was not getting digested properly, after 10 am I took whey protein, after that stomach started feeling heavy, now there is no problem much, I have to ask what to eat and what not to eat, and what to drink, and when should I start whey protein and gym with vapes, even now stomach feels heavy after eating, I am taking the medicine since 3 days.
1.What should I eat and drink so that I can become a Sai quickly?
2. And tell me what I should do, according to your own understanding.
Thank you 🙏

You’re likely dealing with a mild, temporary liver dysfunction (post-infection or drug-related) causing jaundice and some gut disturbance after antibiotics. Bilirubin 2.96 is mild–moderate, and symptoms you describe are usually reversible with proper care.
Next Steps
Rice + dal (thin)
Khichdi / soft porridge
Boiled vegetables (lauki, tori, carrot, pumpkin)
Fruits:
Banana
Papaya
Apple (stewed if heavy)
Curd / buttermilk (chaas) → helps gut recovery after antibiotics
Coconut water (excellent for liver recovery)
Chapati (without oil/ghee)
Continue medicines prescribed (likely liver support / antacids)
Add Probiotic (curd or sachet if needed)
Eat small frequent meals (every 3–4 hrs)
