Question

Can kidney disease syndrome patients eat pork kidneys?

Answer

Patients with nephritis should try to limit their intake of animal organs, as they contain higher levels of phosphorus, which may cause an increase in phosphorus levels in the blood and worsen the condition. It is recommended that patients consume a small amount of high-quality protein daily, such as beef, chicken, and fish, while also pairing it with rice and vegetables. For patients with chronic renal failure, they can consume one egg (approximately containing 6 grams of protein), 200 milliliters of milk (approximately containing 6 grams of protein), and four ounces of lean meat (approximately containing 8 grams of protein) daily.
