Patient's question:
Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel completely exhausted. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's kidney disease. Can I eat kiwi if I have nephritis?Doctor's answer:
The kiwifruit is rich in vitamin C, but due to the potassium content in kiwifruit, which helps regulate physical and mental health and maintain personal hygiene, this component is not beneficial for patients with chronic nephritis. It is recommended that patients avoid eating kiwifruit to prevent putting pressure on the kidneys. For patients with nephritis, it is important to pay close attention to their diet. It is advised that patients follow a low-salt, low-fat diet and pay attention to rest.
