No matter what kind of kidney disease, as long as there is edema, the intake of salt must be limited. When edema is obvious, it should be limited to below 1 g per day, and even a salt-free diet is needed in severe cases. When the amount of urine protein is reduced and edema is reduced, the amount of salt can be appropriately increased, but it should not exceed 5 grams per day. The purpose of low-salt diet is to reduce the retention of water and sodium in the body, so that edema will subside and blood pressure will drop. Every day 1. At noon, put 1 g salt in a small dish and dip it in vegetables. In this way, the total intake of 1 day remains unchanged, but it can taste salty and stimulate appetite. But it should be noted that the low-salt diet can't eat pickles, pickles, pickled mustard tuber, salty bread and fried dough sticks.
2. Control potassium intake.
You can't eat seaweed, rape, spinach, fennel, celery, day lily, radish, etc. Because these foods are high in sodium per100g. Eating too much of these foods means an increase in salt.
3. How do patients with kidney disease eat fruits and vegetables?
Kidney patients, if the urine volume is normal, should eat more vegetables and fruits to supplement adequate vitamins. If the patient's urine volume decreases, especially when it is less than 500 ml per day, it is necessary to eat vegetables and fruits selectively. Because vegetables and fruits are generally rich in potassium, the serum potassium content of patients with nephropathy and oliguria increases. Hyperkalemia can lead to cardiac arrest and endanger life. Among them, the fruits with high potassium content are: watermelon, banana, pineapple, mango, jujube, cantaloupe and so on. Vegetables with high potassium content include amaranth, spinach, celery, carrots, bamboo shoots and potatoes. Patients with kidney disease should eat less at the stage of oliguria. If the blood potassium is low after using diuretics, you can eat more, especially fresh fruit juice is rich in potassium, which can be used as oral potassium supplement. Hami melon is rich in potassium ion, and the potassium content is about 250 mg per 100 g melon meat. Excessive potassium ion content in the body will promote heart disease, bradycardia and conduction block. Life is in danger. When renal failure occurs, glomerular filtration rate decreases, renal tubular function decreases, potassium metabolism is disordered, and excess potassium cannot be excreted in time, leading to hyperkalemia. Therefore, patients with renal failure should not eat cantaloupe.
4. which seafood is not suitable for eating?
When renal insufficiency is accompanied by decreased urine output, it is not advisable to eat high-protein food, otherwise uremia will occur after eating. Therefore, seafood with high content in protein, such as sea cucumber, mud carp, music fish, yellow croaker, tiger fish and mandarin fish, should not be eaten more. Freshwater fish are edible, such as carp and grass carp, especially crucian carp, which have the function of tonifying kidney.
5. What kind of meat should not be eaten?
Patients with renal failure should limit the intake of protein, because protein can metabolize and produce some nitrogen-containing waste in the body, and excrete it with urine through the kidney. When renal failure occurs (oliguria), urine volume decreases, which affects waste excretion. These wastes easily lead to uremia. Ham, frog, chicken, pigeon, quail, sparrow meat and other meat foods are high in protein and should not be eaten.
6. How to arrange three meals a day?
(1) Main and non-staple food for breakfast: 100 ml of fresh milk with 50g of sugar, or a bowl of lotus root starch with white sugar boiled water, several wheat starch biscuits, a small amount of fried potatoes or an egg. Lotus seeds and red dates can be added as appropriate. Some people like baked sweet potatoes, raisins, chicken and baked potatoes.
(2) Lunch staple food: You can choose wheat starch steamed bread, oil cake, jiaozi, steamed bread, wonton, etc.
(3) Dinner staple food: Choose the same staple food as lunch.
7. Some hints about this disease.
We should closely monitor the condition, cooperate with doctors, pay attention to controlling blood pressure, pay attention to correct diet, avoid overwork and inflammation (such as colds). I wish your father a speedy recovery!
