Kidney calculi, mainly due to the abnormal accumulation of crystalline substances such as calcium oxalate around the kidney, can cause severe pain in the waist, dull pain, hematuria, vomiting and irritability. It is a common urinary system disease, which is more common in men. If the correct treatment is not carried out in time, most of them will cause urinary tract infection and lead to serious urinary tract obstruction. What's more, it will damage renal function and form renal atrophy, which will seriously endanger life and health.
Healthy and effective diet therapy
1. In daily life, patients with kidney calculi should pay attention to the amount of drinking water, and try to ensure that the amount of drinking water reaches more than 2500ml every day. If you really can't drink a lot of boiled water, you can put one or two lemons in the water, because lemons are rich in citrate, which helps to inhibit kidney calculi. And make sure to urinate regularly every day, and the daily urination amount reaches 1500-2000ml. Don't hold your urine, so as not to increase the burden on your kidneys.
2. Keep the daily diet light, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins (especially vitamin A and vitamin B), increase coarse grains and cellulose, have a balanced diet, and enhance resistance and immunity. The accumulation of oxalic acid in the body is one of the factors leading to kidney calculi. In terms of diet, we should strictly limit the intake of foods rich in calcium oxalate, such as spinach, tea, cocoa, beets, beans, celery and bamboo shoots.
3. Eat a normal or moderate high calcium diet, keep the daily intake of 800~ 1000 mg, and limit the extra calcium supplementation treatment. But try not to drink high-calcium milk before going to bed, because after sleeping, the intake of water will decrease and the urine will become sticky. If milk is ingested before going to bed, the concentration of calcium in milk in urine will suddenly increase for a short time. If you are sleeping at this time, the urine is concentrated, and calcium passes through the kidney more, which is easy to form stones, which is undoubtedly worse for patients. If you really want to drink milk, you must drink it four hours before going to bed.
4. Limit high purine diet, such as animal viscera and broth. Animal protein will accelerate the production of uric acid and calcium in urine, which will lead to the formation of stones. Carnivorous food contains a lot of fat. Excessive fat intake will reduce the amount of calcium that can be combined in the intestine, because it will increase the absorption of oxalate, sweat more and make urine less, which will aggravate kidney calculi's condition. Pay more attention to foods with high protein and fat, and strictly limit the intake in daily life.
