How to control diabetic nephropathy

First, if the blood glucose is controlled close to the normal level, diabetic nephropathy is rare. Gliquidone is the first choice of oral hypoglycemic drugs for patients with early diabetic nephropathy. Insulin should be used as early as possible, intensive treatment or insulin pump treatment should be used when the diet and drugs can not be controlled or renal insufficiency occurs.

Second: low salt, low protein, low cholesterol, low fat diet is the dietary principle of diabetic nephropathy. Once the microalbuminuria test is abnormal, it is necessary to reduce or not eat plant protein, such as beans and bean products. It can eat high quality animal protein quantitatively, such as lean meat and skinless fish meat.

Third: in the early stage of diabetic nephropathy, aerobic exercise with brisk walking as the main body can be carried out, at least once a day after meals, at least half an hour each time, and at least five days a week. Avoid long-term exercise with high intensity that can continuously raise blood pressure.
