Chronic nephritis is characterized by long course, slow development, mild or severe symptoms, an asymptomatic abnormal urine test period, and then varying degrees of edema, proteinuria, microscopic hematuria, hypertension and (or) azotemia, and progressive renal function damage. So what should chronic nephritis patients pay attention to?

Attention should be paid to the diet of patients with chronic nephritis

First of all, asymptomatic, no obvious hematuria or daily urine protein less than 1 g to 2 g of patients can be given a general diet, slightly limited salt.

Secondly, for those with low plasma protein and azotemia caused by more urine protein, the protein supply should be increased appropriately, with 1 gram per kilogram of body weight per day as the standard, the renal function should be checked regularly, and the protein intake should be adjusted at any time.

Finally, the amount of protein should be limited to 30g-40g (including protein in staple food) per day in patients with renal dysfunction.

matters needing attention

Sodium intake depends on the degree of edema and hypertension, the general principle of light food is appropriate.
