All my friends, I am a kidney doctor from China, you can call me Dr. Leo, kidney disease treatment is based on natural Chinese medicine therapy, better help patients with kidney disease in various countries.
Chronic Kidney Disease is marked by progressive impairment of kidney function. We are suggested to cut down salt after being diagnosed with kidney problem, because high-salt diet is harmful for kidney.
1. High salt intake elevates blood pressure
High blood pressure is a common symptom and also a common cause of kidney problem. Persistent high blood pressure damage renal blood cells and kidney tissues, which speed up illness progression. Therefore, we need to control blood pressure in normal range. High-salt diet elevates blood pressure easily, so we need to cult down salt, so as to protect residual kidney function and slow down illness progression.
2. Eating too much salt triggers edema which is a symptom of CKD
Salt is the most common source of sodium in our daily life. Sodium controls water balance, so high sodium level is always accompanied with fluid retention. Our healthy kidneys filter the excess sodium into the urine, so that our body can get rid of it. With CKD, our kidneys can not do this job well, which can lead to elevation of sodium level in blood. In such a case, swelling or edema appears easily.
Once being affected by CKD, we need to avoid any foods bad for kidney and cutting down salt is just one of the things we need to do. If you have any questions about this aspect or want to learn more details, you can leave us message or consult online doctor directly.
