Patients with chronic kidney disease should limit high protein food foods to avoid excessive protein intake from the body due to the decline in kidney function, resulting in toxin accumulation. Therefore, high-protein foods should be restricted from the beginning of stage 3 of ch

Chronic kidney disease patients with chronic kidney disease cannot be excreted due to decreased kidney function, resulting in toxin accumulation. Therefore, starting from the 3rd stage of chronic kidney disease ( (i.e. eGFR60 ml/min·1.73㎡) ), should limit the high-protein food to avoid excessive intake of protein to cause burden on the kidneys.

The problem for patients with low protein diet is that it is not easy to persist, and the other is that it is easy to lead to malnutrition. Therefore, the key to a low-protein diet is "intake an appropriate amount of high-quality protein, while ensuring sufficient calorie intake" .

The body will not mobilize proteins to supply energy when energy is sufficient. Therefore, in the case of restricting protein intake, it is necessary to make full use of foods containing fat and carbohydrate and high and low protein to provide energy.

So what should I do? can choose a low-protein staple food!

The benefits of doing this are really many -

1. Reduce protein intake by 10-15g/d to better adhere to a low-protein diet;
2. The extra protein surplus can supplement high-quality protein foods such as eggs, milk, and meat;
3. Reduce metabolic waste, reduce the high-filtration state of the kidneys, and protect kidney function.

Currently, most low-protein staple foods ( low-protein rice , low-protein flour, low-protein noodles, etc.), but the market price is relatively high, and the economic burden of long-term consumption is relatively heavy.

Today, Duoduo will recommend several cheap and easy-to-get low-protein staple foods to you, hoping to reduce your burden.

According to the "Diet Guidance for Chronic Kidney Diseases (2017)" published by the National Health and Family Planning Commission , recommend: Use potatoes, sweet potatoes, lotus roots, yam , taro, clear powder, vermicelli and other starch-rich foods to replace staple foods.

Potatoes replace rice: 200g replace 50g rice .

Starch replacement rice quantity: 100g replace 100g rice .

In this way, when the energy intake is the same, you can free up more protein share and intake high-quality protein such as meat, eggs and milk (including soy products). meets the low-protein diet requirements and can easily meet the demand for a high-quality protein ratio of more than 50%.

So kidney friends, don’t just focus on rice and flour in the staple food. Change your taste appropriately. Eating some low-protein staple foods may be more conducive to the stability of kidney disease.
