1. Moderate protein intake
We can not live normally without enough protein, so do kidney failure patients. Because of serious kidney damages, lots of protein leak from the urine. Thereby, to meet the demand of body, patients need to ingest moderate high quality protein through eating some eggs, lean meat, fish and beef and so on.
2. Limit phosphorus intake and ingest more calcium
Some End Stage Kidney Failure patients may have extremely high levels of phosphorus. High levels of phosphorus restrain the absorption to calcium, so kidney failure patients are likely to suffer from hypocalcemia. To remit this condition, limiting phosphorus intake as well as ingesting more calcium are very essential.
3. Limit salt intake strictly
Usually, salt intake is limited within 5g. However, if stage 5 renal failure patients have serious high blood pressure, swelling or decreased urine output, salt intake should be even lesser.
4. Drink less water
Drinking less water is mainly aims at patients with serious swelling as well as patients with dialysis.
5. Reduce potassium intake
Excessive potassium is discharged through our kidneys. Failed kidneys can not excrete extra potassium, so to reduce renal burden, reducing potassium intake is necessary.
The above is the diet principle of kidney failure patients .Now let us analysis can kidney failure patients eat potato .
Potatoes are high in potassium. I am not sure of the reason, but I have seen several male PKD'rs as they approach diminished kidney functioning, find themselves becoming pushed over the edge of health toward dialysis by dietary indiscretions involving eating a taste of meat and potatoes or a French Fry. Some have found that by soaking the potato in ice water this diminishes the potassium content. However raw potatoes are known to be very alkaline and a very old old remedy for healing ulcers. Potato skins are high in manganese and said to create thicker more abundant hair. If you must eat potatoes then eat them no more frequently than once a week and baked or roasted including eating their jackets or skins. Substitute sunchokes, turnips, rutabagus, cauliflower, Swedes or parsnips.
Because potatoes are high in potassium . So we should limit the intake of potatoes .
