The objective of this study is to find the widespread prevalence of the disease across the world along with its causes, people who all are affected and results of this disease. Jaundice is most severe in Asian male babies along with the Native American babies; both are found to be the most affected ones with the neonatal jaundice followed by Caucasian ones which are further followed by the African ones. So, it’s necessary to know about jaundice in different age groups and what can be the preventive measures like dietary modifications and controlling other health conditions and other factors so as to avoid the disease or at least lowering the impact of the disease. Avoidance and early curing of the disease is the main motto of the research. Common symptoms of the disease include yellowing of skin and white part of the eye, colored feces, itchiness and dark colored urine. This disease shows gradual symptoms as the bilirubin level in the blood increases. It may take up to 3 days to show the symptoms. Most commonly it affects infants of age 0-3 days but its affect can be seen in people of almost all age groups. This is one of the most widespread diseases across the world and if left untreated, may result in death and hence this study is made which focuses on the prevalence, management and dietary modifications of the disease.
