That much protein and other necessary materials leak out through the urine is a very common system of FSGS (Focal Segmental Glomerulonephritis). In order to slow the worsening speed of FSGS, patients should pay more attention to their diet. A reasonable chronic FSGS diet is something that patient can easily implement.
Protein intake
In order not to increase the kidneys’ burden, patients with FSGS should control the intake of protein. However, protein is something essential our body needs, so patients should take the foods containing high quality of protein like fish, chicken, milk, lean meat and eggs and so on.
Water intake
A small amount of water is good for FSGS patients, too much fluid will be out of the damaged kidneys’ control. In order not to cause the waster retention, when patients feel thirsty, they can go for some fruits like watermelon, grapes and berries and so on.
Fat and cholesterol intake
High fat and cholesterol intake may cause many complications, so patients with FSGS should control the intake of fat and cholesterol. Egg white is good for patients, not the yolk. And foods like chocolate, candy, dessert, ice-cream, peanut, honey, butter, cream and animal fat should be controlled.
Sodium intake
In order not to aggravate high blood pressure or cause swelling, patients with FSGS should control the sodium intake. Canned foods are particularly high sources of sodium in the American diet. Fresh foods over packaged and convenience foods are recommended.
