I was diagnosed with the kidney disease " IgA Nephritis " in October, 2009
and my creatinine levels were increasing from 1.1 to 1.2 to 1.3 and so forth.
Now, it is 5.0. I want to know which food is ideal for my condition.
Many IgA Nephritis patients with elevated creatinine levels consult us that
how to arrange a scientific diet, so the following are some useful suggestions
for you.
1. Potassium intake: High potassium levels cause nerves to fire erratically, which in turn cause arrhythmias and tachycardia. You should control high potassium levels by avoiding high potassium foods such as broccoli, tomatoes, potatoes, legumes, acorn squash and oranges, etc. you can substitute lower potassium foods including peppers, mushrooms, onions, white rice and pasta, etc.
2. Phosphorus intake: Since the kidneys are unable to regulate phosphorus
content in the blood, you may suffer from uncontrollable itching and renal
osteodystrophy due to elevated phosphorus levels. High phosphorus foods such as
milk and milk products, chocolate, beer, organ meats, dried beans and other
legumes should be avoided.
3. Sodium salt intake: Low-salt food should be taken, which is beneficial for patients with high blood pressure and edema. In general, the suitable intake per day should be less than 2g. Preserved food is forbidden.Meanwhile, take less MSG and eatable alkali.
Beside, you should limit intake of food with rich fat and cholesterol, like
animal giblets, fat meat, some seafood and so on. For those with massive loss of
protein in urine, some microelement and hormone which is combines with protein
get lost, too, causing the lack of calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, etc. So you
should supply appropriate microelement by taking rich vitamin and microelement
foods like vegetable, fruit, grains, seafood, etc.
Actually, individual dietary recommendations should be based upon your
specific illness condition. You can consult the doctor or our online experts for
personalized advice. It should also be noted that keep a diet principle is
important, but take the correct and systematic treatment for IgA Nephritis is
more important than that.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is highly recommended to you. Moreover, compared with those traditional methods, you need not worry any side effects because all the herbal medicines are coming from the nature. Please contact us for more details and we are glad to help you.
