'Let me ask what are the symptoms of kidney failure? Can people with kidney failure drink coffee? Thank you doctor!'. (H. Nhien, in Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City).
Master - Doctor Duong Thi Thanh Tam, Head of Kidney - Artificial Kidney Unit, Gia An 115 Hospital, answered: Regarding the manifestations of kidney failure, we can distinguish as follows:
While acute kidney failure has dramatic symptoms due to the sudden loss of kidney function (such as oliguria, anuria, edema, back and lumbar pain, nausea and vomiting, fatigue, poor appetite, etc.), chronic kidney disease (chronic kidney failure) often progresses silently, in the early stages the patient has almost no warning signs. Symptoms often appear late when the disease has entered the final stage, which is why chronic kidney disease is often considered a "silent killer".
People with chronic kidney disease do not need to completely abstain from coffee, but need to pay attention to the amount they drink.
Regular health check-ups and screening for chronic kidney disease if you are in the high-risk group are important for early detection of the disease.
You should think about chronic kidney disease and see a kidney doctor immediately if you have some symptoms such as: Foamy urine; edema - it can be subtle edema such as wearing rings, shoes feel tighter; back pain; frequent dizziness, pale skin, fatigue, sleepiness. Especially young people with high blood pressure need to pay attention to kidney disease; women who have had preeclampsia, people who regularly take painkillers should also be alert to chronic kidney disease.
Patients with kidney failure should note
For people with kidney failure, proper nutrition plays an important role because it helps control blood pressure, weight, cholesterol, and blood sugar, thereby slowing the progression of the disease.
People with chronic kidney disease should pay special attention to reducing salt, limiting some fruits and vegetables rich in potassium, limiting stimulants such as chili, pepper, onion, garlic in their diet; should not eat processed foods such as canned, smoked foods; do not eat pickled foods, mushrooms. Should not drink alcohol, beer, mineral water high in sodium.
People with chronic kidney disease do not need to completely abstain from coffee, but they need to pay attention to the amount they drink to control potassium levels as well as to avoid high blood pressure (due to the effects of caffeine in coffee). In addition, they should limit or avoid using cream and milk in coffee.
It is best for people with chronic kidney disease to see a doctor for detailed advice on diet and lifestyle appropriate to their condition.
