A liver-failure diet (low in protein) that contained rice polished to 50% to reduce the protein content of the diet was given to patients with uncompensated liver cirrhosis and compared with a standard liver-failure diet containing conventionally processed rice. The amount of boiled rice served in each meal could be increased by using well-polished rice and the use of supplementary sources of energy (powdered starch syrup, jelly, cookies, and candy sugar) was unnecessary. In the liver-failure diet containing well-polished rice, the methionine contents could be reduced and the Fischer ratio could be increased. The ingestion rate of the diet with well-polished rice was 80% and the diet was rated favorably in a questionnaire on palatability. Decreases in blood ammonia concentrations were observed in three patients given the liver-failure diet with well-polished rice for 2 wk by the crossover method.
