How terrible is it to avoid high proteinuria? 2 diet 'secrets', you only know how important it is after reading it

Kidney disease is often accompanied by the occurrence of some symptoms. In the early stage, edema and proteinuria are typical. In the later stage, high blood pressure, high creatinine, and high uric acid are common. Timely relief of these symptoms is also an important part of delaying renal function.

In particular, urinary protein is a "signature" indicator of the disease, which can not only reflect the current situation of renal function, but also affect the process of renal function. Therefore, we must always pay attention to the stability of this indicator.

The cause of increased urinary protein mainly reflects the damage of renal filtration function. Therefore, improving the function of glomerular filtration in time and correcting the influencing factors are the keys to improving the condition and preventing renal failure.

The key to reducing protein is to inhibit the inflammatory response and suppress the speed of glomerular fibrosis. Simple medication and timely treatment can often effectively control the indicators, but the recovery of renal function takes a period of time.

Therefore, during treatment, in addition to medication to relieve symptoms, in order to reduce the burden on the kidneys and consolidate the therapeutic effect, the diet should also be improved.

What dietary principles are often necessary to pay attention to when urinary protein is high? Is it better for the recovery of kidney function? Next, let's talk about it in detail!

Properly reduce high protein foods

Patients with a large amount of proteinuria are often in the severe stage of glomerular damage, and the permeability of the filtration membrane increases. If they eat too much high-protein diet, there will be a lot of leakage, which will undoubtedly aggravate the situation of urinary protein. So it is not that the more protein in the urine, the more high-protein foods you eat.

Instead, you should appropriately reduce the intake of high-protein foods and choose foods with high-quality protein.

For example, meat, eggs, milk, beans and products with these four types of food as the main raw materials can be selected. But the intake should be controlled. In principle, the more protein in the urine, the less the intake. If there is hypoalbuminemia, an appropriate increase can be considered. The specific intake is as follows.

The 24h urine protein quantification is below 1g, and the protein intake is 1-1.2g/kg, which is basically the same as that of normal people;

The 24h urine protein quantification is below 1-3.5g, and the protein intake is reduced to 0.8-1g/kg;

The 24h urine protein quantification is greater than 3.5g, and the protein intake is reduced to 0.6-08g/kg.

Generally, after the urine protein is stable, the diet can also return to normal. It is also critical to ensure nutrition to stabilize the immune system.

adequate calorie diet

In patients with high proteinuria, after adjusting their protein intake, some patients may feel under-fed. To avoid nutrient deficiencies, the calories must be enough. The sources of calories and carbohydrates are mainly staple foods such as rice, steamed bread, noodles, etc. Some patients are worried about the problem of excess calories and protein, causing problems such as body weight and blood lipids.

If you don’t have these raw materials, you can also use the commonly used staple foods. The thickness is the best. In addition to wheat, you can also add corn, millet, oats, black rice, red beans, black beans and other cereals to eat together, which is more beneficial to the disease and full of crude fiber. It has a stronger abdominal feeling and also helps to promote digestion and absorption.

Adhering to these good eating habits not only pays attention to improving urinary protein, but also requires physical health. Have you achieved it?
