Patient's question:
My aunt's husband has suffered from nephrotic syndrome for more than five years. Over these years, he has always drunk a lot, which makes people feel very annoyed. It has brought many problems to the family and life. Today, he said he wants to eat soil. I wonder if he can eat potatoes?Doctor's answer:
Nephrotic syndrome is a combination of various kidney diseases. Foods high in potassium should not be consumed. On the contrary, potatoes can be eaten because they can strengthen the body and improve health. The potassium in potatoes can help prevent high blood pressure. However, potatoes should not be overconsumed. For patients with nephrotic syndrome, eating a proper diet in conjunction with treatment can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Wishing patients a speedy recovery and good health!
