Patient's question:
I have been experiencing prolonged physical discomfort in the past few months, sometimes feeling weak and having aches all over my body. Yesterday, my daughter took me to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and they said my kidney function is impaired. The doctor advised me to rest at home and eat more foods that are good for the kidneys. Therefore, I would like to ask what foods are beneficial for impaired kidney function?Doctor's answer:
For patients with impaired renal function, it is recommended to consume high-quality protein. The diet can include dairy products, eggs, lean meat, and eggs. It is appropriate to eat more honey, glucose, and other sugar-containing substances to supplement the energy and nutrients needed. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables rich in various vitamins. Animal protein intake should be controlled to reduce kidney damage and prevent the recurrence of proteinuria.
