Dietary therapy plays a very important role in the treatment of kidney disease, but patients must pay attention to adopting scientific dietary methods to ensure the ideal therapeutic effect. During the treatment of chronic nephritis, some patients have not adhered to scientific methods, resulting in an aggravation of their condition. Let's work together to correct these incorrect dietary methods that are not conducive to the cure of chronic nephritis.
1. Hunger therapy.
This is the wrong treatment often used by some patients with chronic nephritis at ordinary times, which not only cannot alleviate the pain but also can lead to repeated episodes of the disease. The overemphasis on diet and misunderstanding of animal protein among patients with chronic nephritis have led some patients to adopt "hunger therapy". Due to excessive restrictions on staple foods and animal protein, patients often suffer from malnutrition, which is exacerbated by "hunger therapy", resulting in decreased body resistance, hypoproteinemia, anemia, etc., and is prone to co infection, exacerbating the condition, leading to renal failure.
2. Drink more bone soup.
Bone soup is regarded as a very important supplement in daily life, and many patients with chronic nephritis use it as an important method of dietary therapy. Many people believe that drinking bone soup can supplement calcium and contribute to the health of patients. Patients with chronic nephritis have a weak physique and are often accompanied by abnormalities in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, presenting as hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. Due to the impact of gastrointestinal function and hyperparathyroidism in patients, calcium absorption in the intestine is reduced, and patients with nephritis often exhibit low calcium. At the same time, due to reduced phosphorus excretion and endocrine disorders, patients have a high phosphorus status. Bone soup contains more phosphorus. Drinking bone soup consumes a large amount of phosphorus, causing phosphorus to accumulate in the body, exacerbating hyperphosphatemia.
Through the introduction of the above content, we should all have a certain understanding of the adverse dietary therapies frequently used by patients with chronic nephritis. We must help patients with chronic nephritis correct these dietary methods in a timely manner in life to promote their early recovery.
