In general, children with cholestatic liver disease need to maintain adequate nutrition. They may require specialized diets or dietary supplements to maximize fat absorption and to provide adequate calories for optimal growth and development. Physical activity is encouraged for all children with cholestatic liver disease. Vitamin deficiencies may make children with cholestatic liver disease more prone to injuries. Before embarking on any strenuous physical activity, children with liver disease should be evaluated by a physician and an appropriate activity level determined.
