What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
Hepatitis A will drain your energy through fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. To counteract this, you'll have to conserve your energy so you're strong enough to fight off the virus.  Avoid strenuous activity like vigorous exercise. Light activities like walking may be possible if you're feeling strong enough, though you should always consult your doctor before trying this. If possible, take time off from school or work. This is important both for your own energy levels and to avoid spreading the disease to others. Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory that can help treat the body aches and swelling associated with hepatitis A. Brand names include Motrin and Advil. Ibuprofen is the preferred pain reliever for hepatitis because it is easy on the liver. On the contrary, you should avoid acetaminophen and aspirin, as these are tougher on the liver and could cause further damage. You'll feel very sick, but you should still do your best to practice good hygiene. Wash your hands often, especially after using the bathroom, and don't drink out of cups or eat with utensils that other people will use. This will help prevent you spreading the virus to your family, friends, roommates, or any others living in close proximity to you. Your body will need to replace fluids lost through vomiting and diarrhea. Water is usually the best choice, but if you're having trouble eating or keeping food down, you may need to opt for a fluid with more nutrients to avoid getting malnourished. Good choices include Gatorade, milk, fruit juices, and nutritional supplement drinks like Ensure. Avoid alcohol completely while recovering. Alcohol puts strain on the liver, which can cause serious or permanent damage while you're recovering from the disease. Three large meals may make you feel nauseous or uncomfortable, so break up your eating schedule into smaller meals. This will prevent nausea and help your body process foods more efficiently. Protein helps the body repair damage, which is necessary for your liver to heal. Aim for 60 to 120 grams of protein daily. Also try to get protein from plant sources like beans, chickpeas, tofu, quinoa, nuts, and soy products. Your healing body will probably tolerate these foods better than meats. Since you may suffer from vomiting, diarrhea, and lack of appetite, it's important to eat foods that will keep your energy levels up. You can keep your calorie levels up by adding certain ingredients to meals or snacking on others throughout the day.  Drink whole milk instead of reduced fat varieties Eat fruit canned in syrup for sugars Add butter to foods for fats and oil Snack on vegetables dipped in salad dressing, nuts, and dairy products. These are all high in fats and calories. Eat bread, bagels, pasta, and other foods high in carbohydrates Avoid diet or fat-free foods. These will be lower in calories and won't help you keep your energy up. Since you'll lose nutrients through vomiting and diarrhea, you'll need to make sure you're eating enough to maintain your weight. If your weight stays consistent, your diet plan is working. If you start losing weight, you need to bring up your calorie intake. If you fail to do so, you could end up in the hospital with complications from your disease. It would also be a good idea to let your doctor know if you've lost weight. She may want to examine you to make sure there are no other issues with your recovery. Although rare, you could experience severe complications from hepatitis A. These can land you in the hospital and are potentially life-threatening. Monitor your condition closely and contact your doctor immediately if you notice symptoms of the following conditions.  Cholestasis. This is a condition where bile builds up inside the liver. It is usually not a medical emergency, but your doctor should still be informed so he can decide on the best course of action. Symptoms include persistent fever, jaundice, diarrhea, and weight loss. Liver failure. This rare but very serious complication stops liver function. Untreated, it can be deadly. Besides normal hepatitis symptoms, signs of liver failure include nosebleeds, easy bruising, hair loss, high fever, shivering, edema (buildup of fluid in the legs, ankles, and feet), ascites (buildup of fluid in the abdomen resulting in a noticeable bulge), and drowsiness/confusion. Contact your doctor right away if you experience these symptoms. It's likely your doctor will want to see you regularly while you recover to monitor your condition and test your liver function. Be sure to keep appointments with your doctor and keep her updated on your condition to ensure a healthy recovery.
Get plenty of rest. Take ibuprofen. Practice good hygiene. Drink plenty of fluids. Eat four to six smaller meals per day. Include plenty of protein in your meals. Choose high-calorie foods. Weigh yourself at least once a week. Look for signs of complications. Stay in contact with your doctor throughout the recovery process.
