Mo Feifan, director of Beijing Kidney Disease Expert

After getting chronic kidney disease, eating has become one of the biggest problems. Many patients say: "Fish is seafood, kidney disease patients can not eat", first of all, this is a misunderstanding, after many studies have proved that: fish is rich in high-quality protein, better than other meats. And eating fish can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.

Eating fish is also a lot of benefits for kidney patients, Director Mo has used carp soup, crucian carp soup for kidney patients to remove edema, it is clear that the fish soup has a medicinal diet in general function. This is because fish and meat are rich in DHA and EPA, with anti-inflammatory effects. On the contrary, red meat and the risk of uremia are closely related, the greater the amount of red meat eaten, the higher the risk. And properly replacing pork, beef, and lamb with foods like fish, eggs, dairy, and soy will reduce this risk.

But the consequences of eating wrong are also serious. How should kidney patients choose fish to eat fish?

First, pickled fish

Pickled fish can not eat, including salted fish, preserved fish, canned fish and other processed fish, because these pickled fish in the process of making a large number of salts, additives, easy to eat a lot of salt, inorganic phosphorus, is not conducive to the condition of kidney friends. It is okay to have an occasional addiction, but you must eat less.

Two, scaly fish

Scaly fish is born without fish scales. Freshwater loach, catfish, river eel, etc. belong to the scaly fish, deep sea eel and eel species. The potassium and phosphorus of these fish are very high, so if the kidney function is abnormal, patients with abnormal creatinine should remember to eat less because it will aggravate the electrolyte metabolism disorder and aggravate the kidney disease. In addition, the cholesterol of scaly fish is very high, for kidney patients who also suffer from hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease, they should also eat less.

However, not all scaly fish can not be eaten, herring, salmon, because rich in unsaturated fatty acids, high cholesterol kidney patients eat but beneficial. So, overall for scaly fish, stable kidney patients can eat some in moderation every week. And for the potassium, phosphorus metabolism disorder or a combination of high blood fat, coronary heart disease kidney friend should stay away from!

Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to eat fish twice a week, 1-2 taels each time.

However, fish guts should not be eaten. Fish gall bladder is toxic, more toxic than arsenic, many people eat fish gall bladder will be sudden "fish gall bladder poisoning" hospitalization, abdominal pain, skin yellowing, urinary symptoms, creatinine and transaminase elevated and other abnormalities. And, no matter how to deal with, such as raw, soaked in wine, cooked, etc., can not reduce the fish gall toxicity.
