Fast food, spicy food, and Chinese cuisine items are becoming increasingly popular, and according to Ayurveda, these foods have Atilavana(more salty), Atimadhura(more sweet), Snigdha(fatty), and Guru(hard to digest) qualities. Damage to the hepatic cells causes infective hepatitis. In Ayurveda, jaundice is known as kamala vyadhi. The ayurvedasamhita gives a detailed explanation of kamala. Hepatocellular jaundice is similar to ayurvedic kamala vyadhi in terms of description.
