Do you need to take protein supplements for urinary protein

Urine protein usually do not need to supplement protein, the increase in the amount of urine protein is mainly due to the combination of glomerulonephritis, the increase in leakage of protein in the urine, the treatment is mainly to treat the cause, that is, treating the kidney disease so that the leakage of protein to reduce. Patients with large amounts of urinary protein are often combined with hypoalbuminemia, severe hypoalbuminemia, such as the patient’s albumin is particularly low, may only be less than 20g / L, combined with severe edema, sometimes may need intermittent infusion of albumin diuretic, to alleviate the symptom, but only intermittent temporary use of medication, and does not play a fundamental therapeutic role, and continued repeated application of albumin on the kidney is also a kind of damage. The other thing is that it can be taken orally. The other is oral, low albumin patients in severe hypoproteinemia can be appropriate to increase the intake of high-quality protein in the diet, albumin level is not particularly low and edema is not particularly pronounced patients are still recommended to appropriate a slightly low-protein diet, that is, about 0.8g / (kg.d) or so, because too much intake of protein will also aggravate the burden on the kidneys, not all patients with high urinary protein need to supplement the protein. Not all patients who have a lot of urine protein need to supplement protein.
