Dietary priorities for uremic patients

  UTI diet is as important as UTI treatment! All along, nephrologists have been emphasizing about the importance of UTI diet in the recovery of UTI patients. Uremic diet in conjunction with treatment has become a principle to guide the active recovery of uremic patients. Despite the stage of uremia, patients will mostly experience nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, bloating and diarrhea, etc. In conjunction with effective Chinese medicine treatment of uremia based on with dietary regimen, often enable uremic patients to achieve twice the result with half the effort.  Uremia diet focus 1, low protein diet in the azotemia phase and uremia phase of the patient should be mainly low protein diet, and protein to contain essential amino acids animal protein, such as milk, eggs, fish, lean meat, etc.. The daily protein intake is 0.6-0.8g/kg body weight. This not only ensures the supply of essential amino acids, but also allows the body to use non-protein nitrogen to synthesize non-essential amino acids in the case of low protein supply, thus reducing azotemia.  2, diet rich in vitamins food should be easy to digest and contain sufficient vitamins, especially vitamin B, C, D. To avoid rough food on digestion.
D. To avoid mechanical damage to the digestive tract from coarse foods that can lead to gastrointestinal bleeding. Patients with good appetite during the azotemia period, calories should not be less than 35 calories per kilogram of body weight, but to the uremic period can only depend on the appetite of the patient. If the patient has a lot of urine and edema is not obvious, generally do not limit the amount of water.  3.Timely replenishment of water and salt
Uremic patients are prone to dehydration and hyponatremia, especially in patients with long-term loss of appetite, vomiting and diarrhea. Once it happens, it should be replenished in time. However, we should pay attention to the characteristics of poor tolerance of water and sodium in uremic patients, and supplementation should not be excessive, so as not to cause hypernatremia or water intoxication.  4, pay attention to calcium and potassium supplementation uremic patients generally have low blood potassium, after the use of diuretics is very easy to occur hypokalemia, then you can eat more fresh fruit and potassium chloride. Uremic patients often have low blood calcium, so they can eat more food with high calcium content, such as fish, shrimp, meat and bone soup.
