Kidney disease is a very sensitive disease, and a slight disturbance in lifestyle habits can lead to worsening of kidney disease.
As the saying goes, 'Illness comes from the mouth.' If you do this wrong, it is closely related to the worsening of your condition.
What foods are not suitable for kidney disease patients to eat? Foods such as high salt, high fat, protein rich, spicy, and hard fried are not suitable for kidney disease patients, as these foods can easily increase the metabolic burden on the kidneys, stimulate the condition, and cause infections.
In addition, there are many foods and drugs containing nephrotoxic substances that require patients to abstain from eating. include:
Carambola;
Tripterygium wilfordii, Mutong, Aconite, Fish Gall, Centipede, etc;
Gentamicin, kanamycin, ibuprofen, etc.
What healthy dietary principles should kidney disease patients follow?
Eat more vegetables and fruits
Ensure daily intake of vegetables and fruits, and try to choose types with low potassium content (high blood potassium in kidney disease patients can lead to cardiovascular disease).
Generally speaking, vegetables and fruits with lower water content have higher potassium content, such as bananas, spinach, etc.
Persist in eating low-fat dairy products
Dairy products are an ideal food for calcium supplementation in patients with kidney disease, while low-fat milk can meet the needs of patients with high blood lipids.
A glass of pure milk every morning is the best choice, but if there is a problem of high blood phosphorus, it is best to reduce the amount consumed.
Reduce the proportion of red meat intake
Common red meat includes beef, lamb, dog meat, and pork.
The first three are foods that kidney disease patients should avoid, and it is best to reduce the intake of pork and replace it with white meat such as chicken and fish to avoid excessive accumulation of metabolic waste in the body.
Choose vegetable oil instead of meat oil
Most vegetable oils contain a large amount of unsaturated fat acids, which can protect cardiovascular health.
Try not to consume animal oil as its saturated fatty acids can cause abnormal blood lipids.
