Six dietary taboos for patients with nephritis

1, limit the amount of liquid.

When patients with chronic nephritis have hypertension and edema, their fluid intake should be restricted. The daily intake should be controlled at 1200- 1500 ml, including 800 ml of water in drinks and dishes. If the edema is serious, the water inflow should be strictly controlled. In the case of urination, you can relax appropriately.

2. Avoid using strong condiments.

Pepper, mustard, coffee gall, pepper and other strong condiments. It is not good for kidney function and should be avoided. Because monosodium glutamate will make you thirsty if you eat too much, you should also use less when limiting the amount of water you drink.

3. Limit plant protein.

Protein intake should depend on renal function. When patients have oliguria, edema, hypertension and nitrogen retention, the daily intake of protein should be controlled at 20-40g, so as to reduce the burden on the kidneys and avoid the accumulation of non-protein nitrogen in the body. In particular, protein contains a lot of alkaloids, which can aggravate the intermediate metabolism of kidney, so beans and bean products should not be used as nutritional supplements. Beans and bean products include soybeans, mung beans, broad beans, soybean milk and tofu.

4, chronic nephritis can not eat high-fat food or eat less.

Patients with chronic nephritis have symptoms of hypertension and anemia. Animal fat is an unfavorable factor for hypertension and anemia. Because fat can aggravate arteriosclerosis and inhibit hematopoietic function, patients with chronic nephritis should not eat more. However, if there is no fat intake in chronic nephritis, the body will become weak, so vegetable oil can be used instead in daily life, about 60 grams per day.

5. Limit foods with high purine content and high nitrogen content.

In order to reduce the burden on the kidneys, foods that stimulate kidney cells, such as spinach, celery, radish, beans, bean products, sardines, chicken soup, fish soup and broth, should be restricted. Because of the high content of purine and nitrogen in these foods, when the renal function is poor, its metabolites can not be discharged in time, which has a negative impact on renal function.

6, chronic nephritis can not eat a high-salt diet.

The edema of chronic nephritis is closely related to blood volume and sodium salt. Every 1 g of salt can bring in about 1 10 ml of water. If patients with nephritis eat too much salt and have impaired urination function, they will often aggravate edema symptoms and increase blood volume, leading to heart failure. So limit salt and give them a low-salt diet. Daily salt intake should be controlled below 2-4 grams to prevent edema from getting worse, blood volume from increasing and accidents from happening.
