Diet for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

Corresponding Diet to Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Diet therapy plays a very important role in the process of curing kidney disease of various kinds. Keeping a rational and scientific diet is a matter of death or life for the patients, and it is true with periods of during and after the recovering. Otherwise, irrational eating habits lead to kidney metabolic disorder. Sclerous nephrons will never renaissance, and the remaining inherent cells and nephrons are still functionally weak even when they are restored. So, during this period of time, irrational eating habits will result in high perfusion, high filtration and high metabolism of renal glomerulus, which aggravate the condition of the organ. In one word, keeping a healthy diet is necessary.
Restriction on salt intake Is There a Diet That CKD Stage 4 Patient Can Follow
Patient’s daily salt intake is determined by the degree of edema that the patient suffers. Generally speaking, the sufferers of high and mild edema should strictly follow a low-salt diet, and for patients with slight but not completely vanished edema, low-salt diets turn out to be the best choice for further recovery. And 3g salt intake is sufficient for these patients. If the edema symptom disappears completely and the plasma albumin returns approximately to normal levels, the patient can adapt to normal diet. However, salty foods, such like pickles, should not be eaten at all. And if the patient’s kidney has functional damages, low-salt diet should be kept throughout the whole curing process.How Much Water Should I Drink With Stage 4 CKD
Intake of protein - Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Abnormal protein excretion Immunotherapys from damages to filtrating functions of glomerulus and absorbing functions of renal tubules. Large protein intake only loads more burdens to these damaged tissues and aggravates the condition. So, low-protein intake will reserve renal tissues more energy for recovery. Generally, 0.65g/kg per day intake of protein is rational, and it will be the best if protein intake is evenly distributed among daily three meals.
However, some renal disease sufferers excrete large amounts of protein everyday. Hypoproteinemia leads to the decrease of colloid osmotic pressure and thus makes it hard to treat high edema。Other influences of proteinuria include the decreases in immunity and protective ability of the body. These patients should be provided with sufficient protein, and 1.5g/kg per day is a rational.
Fat intake requirements.Chinese Fruits and Vegetables Consumed by Stage 4 Kidney Failure Can a Diet Improve Kidney Function for Stage 4 CKD
Patients of renal disease generally suffer from hyperlipidaemia. Patients of slight lesion can escape from the restriction of fat intake, for their disease can be cured within a short time. However, patients of membranous nephropathy, who generally have arteriosclerosis caused by long-term hyperlipidaemia, the restriction about fat intake should be strictly followed.
Intake of such microelements as vitamin and calcium
Patients of renal disease lose lots of protein, as well as these microelements combined with protein, through excretion of urine. So the body could be insufficient with calcium, magnesium and zinc. And this can be made up by taking more vegetables, fruits and seafood which are rich in vitamin and other microelements.

Last but not least, patients of renal disease should take enough rest during their staying in the hospital, and violent exercises should be avoided. During the time when the symptom of edema is obvious, laying on bed is a must. The fade away of edema gives permission of indoor exercises. And when the level of urine protein is less than 2g/d, outdoor exercises can be conducted
