With kidney disease, you must always follow a diet, only so you can be cured. Without adherence to a diet, no treatment will be effective. Diet for the kidneys significantly increases the effect of prescribed medications. It is created by a nutritionist for each patient individually. At the same time, the results of the patient's analyzes are taken as the basis for the development. It is necessary to take into account such important points as the presence of edema, increase or decrease in pressure, etc.
Gentle diet for the kidneys
It is necessary to apply a sparing diet, as it allows the kidneys to completely restore the structure and functions. If there are any pathologies without proper nutrition, none of the therapies will be effective. It makes it possible to utilize components of decomposition, reduce intoxication, eliminate edema and inflammation. Also it is necessary to take into account that the diet is strictly individual and is developed by the attending physician. In this case, you must strictly adhere to the diet, to monitor what foods come in food, and how they are processed. Under the prohibition is salt: it must either be completely eliminated or limited. It is necessary to limit protein foods, as it creates conditions for kidney overload.
Indications
It is prescribed for acute and chronic kidney diseases, for the prevention of exacerbations and recovery after relapse, and even for surgical intervention.
General information of the diets for the kidneys
As the basic components is the use of certain products that restore their structure and functions, prevent the development of the pathological process. Heavy foods are excluded, which makes it possible to relieve the kidneys. We proceed from the point of view that salt and a large number of protein components create a certain load. Accordingly, the diet implies a complete / partial refusal to eat foods that contain salt, rich in protein. The basis of the diet should be carbohydrates, which are easily digested, easily processed. It also excludes all heavy products that can have a damaging effect and become a trigger factor in the development of an infectious-inflammatory process. As the basic element of the diet should be carbohydrate-containing foods: cereals, cereals. It is also important to use a gentle way of processing culinary products: cooking, steaming. With any kidney disease, it is necessary to minimize the use of seasonings, spices. Marinades and pickles, sauces, vinegars are completely excluded. It is also important to correctly combine products. To do this, there is a specially developed table, which indicates the compatibility of products. Always remember that the use of salt should be kept to a minimum. Be sure to monitor the quality of cooked food: the products should only be fresh and high quality. Do not eat spoiled, stored in the refrigerator for a long time. We need to eat 5-6 times a day - this will saturate the body with all the necessary elements, will allow the kidneys to develop their own mode of work and rest. By the time food is planned, the kidneys will be in the maximum functional activity and will be ready for processing and removal of substances. In the rest of the time they will be restored, the load on them will be minimal. This will allow the kidneys to recover in the shortest time.
This rule is especially important if both kidneys are covered with pathology, if a person underwent a surgical operation, a transplant was performed, or only one kidney is present.
Efficiency is the proper use of fluid. So, the daily rate varies from 1 to 1.5 liters. Danger is an overabundance, a shortage. It should be borne in mind that this volume also includes the liquid that is consumed by the person with the first dishes.
Sometimes it is recommended to add citric acid, which replaces salt. In addition, it is capable of relieving inflammation from the kidneys. It is worth trying to add it to the meat, which will soften and significantly increase the digestibility of the protein. Since meat is rich in protein, without which it is impossible to recover, it is recommended to eat boiled meat. It is also important to include chicken.

Potato, unlike many other therapeutic diets, is not excluded. On the contrary, the effect on the body is only positive, since it contains a lot of carbohydrates, it is processed quickly enough and is easily excreted. Also used jelly, juices, honey, jam, jelly, candy, ice cream.
