In order to prevent you from the same disease, let me introduce the kidney disease that needs low protein diet.

Kidney disease requiring low protein diet

First of all: high quality low protein diet: the amount of protein intake in patients with diabetic nephropathy should be determined by reference to the patient's serum creatinine level and endogenous creatinine clearance rate. The higher the serum creatinine level, the lower the endogenous creatinine clearance rate and the more strict the control of protein intake. The intake of plant protein should be reduced as much as possible, because plant protein contains non essential amino acids and is of poor quality. Generally, we should eat less bean products and appropriately limit staple foods, such as white flour and rice, because there is also a certain amount of plant protein in staple foods. We can appropriately supplement animal protein such as milk, eggs, fish and lean meat, especially milk and egg protein.

Secondly: timing and ration of diet: Patients with diabetic nephropathy can have three or four meals a day. The calorie distribution of three meals is 1 / 5 for breakfast, 2 / 5 for lunch and 2 / 5 for dinner. The calorie distribution of the four meals was 1 / 7 of breakfast and 2 / 7 of the other three meals.

Finally: limit salt and water: when patients with edema or hypertension, to limit salt intake, daily should not exceed 3 grams, the correct water intake should be the previous day's urination plus 300 ml ~ 500 ml, keep the body weight basically constant.
