Twenty seven, Zai Nian Chicken - Kidney disease patients eating chicken like this is better than eating ginseng

Every household must have prepared the chicken to eat on New Year's Eve. Kidney friends usually eat pork, but during this season, eating chicken is also excellent! Why do you say that?

Because chicken is rich in nutrients and has a low sodium content, it is another good source of high-quality protein for kidney disease patients besides pork. So, how should kidney disease patients eat chicken?

Pay attention to controlling the quantity well

Chicken, like pork, is also rich in protein. Its content is slightly higher than that of pork, with 15g of protein per 100g of lean pork, while chicken contains 24g. Therefore, based on the daily protein content of 0.6g~1.0g per kilogram for kidney disease patients, if they consume pure meat, they should not consume more than four taels of chicken per day (calculated based on a weight of 50kg). Patients with edema need to consume less food.

Pay attention to selecting the right location

After removing the chicken skin, the fat content of the chicken is very low, but there are still differences in different parts. Chicken breast meat has the lowest fat content and is rich in vitamins and nutrients, which can lower blood cholesterol; The fat content in parts such as chicken legs and wings is higher.

However, compared to other meats, skinned chicken still has a very low fat content. Therefore, people can choose suitable parts to eat according to their own situation.

Pay attention to cooking methods

Most patients are accustomed to drinking chicken soup for nourishment, but in reality, prolonged cooking does not add much nutrition to the soup, but rather more oil and purines. This is unfavorable for both hyperlipidemia and gout patients. The correct method is to discard soup and eat meat, where the chicken nutrition is most easily absorbed and utilized.

In fact, the best way to preserve the nutrition of chicken is still to steam or stir fry, which is a perfect match with winter melon! But don't forget to put less salt~
