Patient's question:
I have a child who loves sugar very much, but he is a polycystic kidney disease patient and is currently undergoing dialysis treatment. The family is also hesitant to give him too much sugar. I don't know if polycystic kidney disease patients can eat sweets? What should be paid attention to in daily diet? The whole family is very worried. Looking forward to the doctor's reply.Doctor's answer:
Regarding the question of whether people with polycystic kidney disease can eat sweets, here's the answer: It is not advisable to drink beer, especially strong white wine, as it should be avoided altogether for those with polycystic kidney disease. Do not consume fermented foods that have been cooked, such as fermented tofu or smelly eggs. Pay attention to a low-protein diet, which means you need to control your intake of meat and eggs. Animal organs, as well as coffee and chocolate, should be avoided. Instead, eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins. Foods rich in iron, such as jujubes, leafy greens, peanuts, and black fungus, should also be included in your diet.
