summary

The main physiological function of kidney is to excrete metabolites and regulate the balance of water, electrolyte and acid-base, secrete a variety of active substances, maintain the stability of the internal environment, so as to ensure the normal physiological function of the body. Nephritis is a group of kidney diseases, which is mediated by immunity and participated by inflammatory mediators (such as complement, cytokine, reactive oxygen species, etc.), and finally leads to inflammatory changes in renal proper tissues, causing varying degrees of renal dysfunction. It can be caused by a variety of causes. There are also non immune and non inflammatory mechanisms involved in the chronic process. What taboo does nephritis diet have?

Dietary contraindications for nephritis

First, high salt diet, chronic nephritis edema and blood volume, sodium has a great relationship, so we must limit salt, give low salt diet. The daily intake of salt should be controlled below 2-4G in order to prevent swelling and blood volume from increasing.

Second, high-fat food, nephritis patients generally have symptoms of hypertension and anemia, if there is a lot of animal fat, it has a great bad effect on hypertension and anemia, mainly because animal fat can aggravate arteriosclerosis and inhibit hematopoietic function, so patients with nephritis must be careful to eat.

Third, foods with high purine and high nitrogen content should be restricted to reduce the burden of kidneys, such as spinach, celery, radish, beans, soy products, sardine, chicken broth, fish soup, broth and so on. Because of the high purine and nitrogen content in those foods, when the renal function is poor, its metabolites can not be excreted in time, which has a negative impact on the renal function.
