Protein intake is an important issue for all people. Different from healthy people, patients with renal failure and diabetes should limit intake of protein, so as to reduce kidneys’ burden. In order to prevent malnutrition, they are also recommended to have a high-quality protein diet. Well then, what are good protein for patients with renal failure and diabetes?
Diabetic is the greatest cause of kidney disease (Diabetic Nephropathy) and a cause of significant morbidity and mortality. Healthy eating should be important in everyone’s life, including renal failure patients with diabetes. Actually, if patients are in the early stage kidney disease, there is no necessary to limit intake of protein, because kidneys have strong compensatory ability. However, along with the progression of illness condition, diabetic kidney disease patients have to reduce protein intake so as to reduce the metabolism of waste products when they are in Kidney Failure Stage. The following content can help you get a healthy eating plan, thus protecting remaining renal function.
Good protein for patients with kidney failure patients with diabetes.
High-biological value protein-like meat, fish, protein, and eggs are recommended, because they produce fewer nitrogenous waste products than other protein sources. However, some patients also don’t know how much they can take high-quality protein. Please hold on. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the National Kidney Foundation recommend the following guidelines for protein consumption for patients with chronic kidney disease:
Stage of kidney disease | Recommended Protein Intake |
1-4 | 0.6-0.75g/kg body weight (50% high biological value) |
4 (hemodialysis) | ≥1.2g/kg body weight (50% high biological value) |
5 (peritioneal dialysis) | ≥1.2-1.5g/kg body weight (50% high biological value) |
