Popcorn is puffed food and very popular snacks, which contains salt,cream,caramel,and many nutrients like dietary fiber, folic acid,zinc,copper,iron. For people with chronic kidney disease, as their kidney function can not work very well and much sodium can not be filtered, sodium will stack in body. Salt contains sodium, which can aggravate that condition. In addition, there is something wrong with kidney of patients with CKD filtering blood, which makes blood glucose level high, so they should avoid taking in much sugar. And cream has much fat and cholesterol, increasing lots of burden for kidney. However, many vitamins in popcorn do good to patients with kidney disease, and protein value is very low, making no harm to patients with kidney disease.
Hence, if chronic kidney disease develops seriously, popcorn should be avoided strictly. People who have slight kidney disease can eat some popcorn moderately. Besides, patients with kidney disease had better avoid most of puffed food in daily life.
