Many patients know how important diet is for their health, so they often ask what the best food or drink for them. Well then, what is the best beverage for IgA Nephropathy patients? I will introduce you several beverages for you, but you should know that this is a general guidance for IgA Nephropathy patients. You should choose beverage of food based on your own condition. Now, let’s take a look at what beverages are recommended.
1. Fruit or vegetable juice
Fresh fruit or vegetable juices such as cranberry, pomegranate, lemon, blueberry and carrot juice, have the contents of antioxidants and various nutrition. Those contents can help prevent from inflammation and improve your kidney function.
Warning: If the IgA Nephropathy has caused kidney damage, electrolyte balance will be disturbed. As a result, patients will be diagnosed with abnormally high level of potassium and phosphorous. Many fruits and vegetable are high in those elements, so they are not good for some of the IgA Nephropathy patients.
2. Water
Water is most natural cleaner of the body. Unlike other beverages sold on market, water contains no chemical additions, so it is safe for the kidneys.
Warning: Even though water is safer than other beverages, over-intake of water may cause swelling if the water-sodium retention has occurred. You can consult your doctor how much water you can drink.
Why don’t I recommend you any beverages like coca-cola? Because they are bad for your health due to many chemical additions, daily beverages sold in store are not recommended.
There is a general dietary principle for IgA Nephropathy patients. The principle is low-salt, low-protein, low-fat and essential vitamins, calories, carbohydrates.
