What's the difference in life after dialysis?

After dialysis, apart from routine dialysis, the biggest difference is that diet needs to be restricted. But as long as you notice, you can still enjoy life like ordinary people.

Dietary principle of dialysis patients: one plus four restrictions

1, increase the intake of protein.

High-quality protein accounts for 50%-70% of the total intake in protein, and sufficient energy is the premise to ensure the effective utilization of protein.

2. Potassium limitation

Soaking is an effective method to remove potassium from high-potassium food: peel vegetables, slice them, wash them, put them in warm water, the volume of water should be more than 4 times that of vegetables, soak them for 1 hour, then pour out the water and rinse them again.

Step 3 limit salt

Can't eat low sodium salt, the potassium content is extremely high, which will lead to hyperkalemia.

4. Water restriction

For each dialyzer, the water output (urine, feces and sweat) should be measured before the water intake is estimated.

Three things about diet adjustment

1, as long as you master the principles, you can change the nutritional diet according to your eating habits.

2. Reasonable and healthy nutritional treatment is the guarantee for keeping the body in the best condition.

3. If in doubt, you can consult doctors, nurses and nutritionists in the dialysis room in time.

What can and can't be eaten? This is the question that dialyzers are most concerned about, and it is also the most frequently asked question. There are two extremes that are not desirable. A feeling is that you can eat anything and drink anything after dialysis. One is afraid of this and that, and dares not eat anything.

The former's intemperance is an unhealthy lifestyle for a person with normal renal function, while the latter's intemperance can't meet the body's energy demand. These two situations are not conducive to dialysis patients to enjoy a happy life, and are not conducive to maintaining a good long-term survival. In fact, the dietary principle of "one plus four limits" does not emphasize what food must not be eaten.

The existence of individual differences determines the individualization of diet. A dialyzer who really loves himself and life will seriously grasp this degree, learn relevant knowledge and control himself.
