Can kidney disease eat eggs? Can! Avoid these three 'bad' eggs though!
I believe that many kidney friends have heard the statement that eggs are fat or high in cholesterol and are not suitable for patients with kidney disease, and then they often eat eggs with trepidation, for fear of increasing the burden on the kidneys.
In fact, we kidney friends do not need to have such worries at all, why? I will tell you about it below.
The "fatty" of Chinese medicine is only for a small number of special groups, because under normal circumstances, the "fatty" is also food, and moderate consumption will not cause side effects or discomfort to most people, and the same is true for our kidney friends, so You don't have to take things too seriously as "flood beasts", and you don't have to list eggs as a dietary taboo for this. As long as you don't feel any discomfort or affect your condition, you can eat it completely.
It is true that the yolk of all eggs is rich in cholesterol, but if the amount is specific, in fact, a complete egg a day has very little impact on blood lipids and cardiovascular disease, and will not cause cholesterol to rise.
Because the human body itself needs to take in a certain amount of cholesterol every day (about 300mg, which is approximately equal to the content of cholesterol in an egg), so as to ensure balanced nutrition and maintain life, so kidney friends do not need to talk about the discoloration of "cholesterol" , as long as you control the amount, it's ok.
It is generally recommended that you eat no more than one egg per day. For kidney friends with high blood cholesterol, you may need to eat one every two days. You can ask your doctor for details.
Under normal circumstances, fresh eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, quail eggs and other kidney friends can eat, but pay attention to the following three "bad" eggs.
- preserved egg
The main raw material of preserved eggs is duck eggs, which are made by special processing methods. On the one hand, preserved eggs are relatively high in salt, which can easily aggravate the symptoms of hypertension and edema after consumption by kidney friends.
In addition, too much lead will also lead to the loss of calcium in the bones and teeth. Regular consumption will aggravate the symptoms of bone and tooth dysplasia and osteoporosis in kidney friends.
- Braised egg
Braised eggs are cooked eggs processed with various seasonings or gravy. Although they are fragrant and delicious, they often add a lot of light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt and other seasonings and colors during the production process. The sodium content is relatively high, and it is a pickled food, so it is not suitable for kidney friends.
In addition, after a long time of cooking, there will be a lot of nutritional loss in marinated eggs. For example, B vitamins are basically lost, so their nutritional value is relatively low, including tea eggs.
- Salted duck eggs
Salted duck eggs are made from fresh duck eggs. One salted duck egg contains 3~5 grams of salt. It is a veritable high-salt food. Therefore, kidney friends, for the sake of our kidneys, we should not be covetous for a moment.
To sum up, fresh egg kidney friends can eat in moderation under the guidance of a doctor. As for processed preserved eggs, marinated eggs, tea eggs, salted duck eggs, etc., it is recommended that you eat less or not.
