Core Tip	Malnutrition in liver cirrhosis is a serious problem in South Asia where the etiology differs from the Western population. As malnutrition is generally highly prevalent in the region, it causes an impact on patients with liver cirrhosis. Urgent attention to address malnutrition is needed to improve patient outcomes. Emphasis on assessment for nutritional status at the initial visit with recording of vital signs is also needed. Simultaneously, treating physicians need to be made aware of the misconceptions surrounding nutritional restrictions in cirrhosis so that patient education is done correctly based on proper scientific evidence.
