Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing frequent urination and urgency repeatedly. After a thorough examination, I found out that I have chronic nephritis. I've been craving peanuts lately, but I'm not sure if I can eat them. Can people with chronic nephritis eat peanuts?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, patients with chronic nephritis should not consume peanuts, as peanuts contain a high amount of plant protein, and excessive consumption can worsen the condition. During the illness, it is important to avoid foods that significantly lower blood sugar and blood lipids. Smoking and drinking beer are not advisable during the illness. It is recommended to consume more vitamins and trace elements and to pay attention to rest.
