In my contact with the kidney patients pay attention to their diet is quite a lot, some of them want to get the secret recipe for kidney through diet, some are afraid to eat some food harmful to the kidneys. In fact, general kidney disease patients do not need to limit their diet, as long as the following aspects can be noted: 1, to control the intake of salt, there are many kinds of salt, such as sodium and potassium salt and so on. Patients should control the salt intake according to their condition; 2, should not consume too much additives, such as monosodium glutamate, chicken essence, special fresh soy sauce, etc., because many additives contain phosphorus, too much intake will cause the kidneys to increase the workload and induce kidney damage; 3, protein intake is not easy to be too high, as long as the normal physiological needs of people can be met, too much protein intake may increase the burden on the kidneys. burden. A reasonable diet for kidney patients plays a very important role in the recovery of the disease. What do kidney patients eat? How much is the right amount to eat? This cannot be described clearly in just one sentence. It is necessary to make a plan for each person according to the type of disease and the severity of the disease. 1.Can kidney patients eat salt and alkali? We normal adults consume about 5-6 grams of salt per day, some areas eat salt to 12 grams per person per day, salt for sodium chloride, alkali for sodium carbonate, soda for sodium bicarbonate, eating too much salt and alkali containing sodium, easy to make water retention in the body, inducing edema, so for patients with renal edema should control the salt and alkali intake, each person into salt 2-3 grams of salt per person is a low-salt diet. Salt-free diet is also unscientific and prone to weakness and dizziness over time. 2, how much water should kidney patients drink? Normal urine volume is generally 1000-2000 milliliters a day, acute nephritis, acute renal failure, oliguria and nephrotic syndrome, chronic renal failure with oliguria swelling patients, to control the amount of water intake. Because drink in not out, water retention in the body to aggravate edema, but also easy to aggravate hypertension, the amount of water into the urine volume plus 500 ml is appropriate. The amount of water intake can be relaxed after the increase of urine volume. The amount of water intake for patients with normal urine volume is not limited. In addition, patients with urinary tract infections such as acute pyelonephritis, urethritis, cystitis, etc., in addition to timely consultation and medication, more water, more urination is very beneficial to the recovery of the disease. 3, can kidney patients eat fish, shrimp, eggs, meat food? Fish and shrimp food, some kidney patients consciously do not eat, that is not good for the kidneys, in fact, such foods are high-quality protein, in allergic diseases such as allergic purpura, purpura nephritis due to suspected allergies to heterogeneous proteins or a history of fish and shrimp allergy must be used with caution, generally do not need to be contraindicated. Fish, shrimp, eggs, meat food rich in animal protein, is the body’s cells, tissues, the main building material, very important to the human body, after eating protein-containing food liver decomposition, kidney excretion, so when the kidney function is reduced, to reduce the amount of protein intake to meet the body’s metabolic nutritional needs, but also does not increase the burden on the kidneys as the principle. Some patients with kidney disease is not serious and do not dare to eat protein, or the condition needs to limit protein and not limit is not correct. Warm reminder: some kidney patients have a long course of disease, slow recovery, often discuss each other, exchange information, experience. It should be noted that each person has their own characteristics, and cannot be completely emulated by each other, or according to their own situation.
