Eat Healthy, Avoid Alcohol. If you have hepatitis C, it's important to eat healthy and avoid alcohol. Eating well can make you feel better, since it can help your body better respond to treatment and its side effects. Alcohol can further damage your liver, so it should be avoided whether or not you're being treated.

Get Lots of Sleep, Exercise. One of the most common symptoms of hepatitis C is chronic fatigue. Fatigue may also be a side effect of hepatitis C treatment. Hepatitis C-related fatigue may be managed by getting enough rest and maintaining a healthy exercise routine.
