IgA Nephropathy diagnosed by the renal biopsy occupies 30%-40% of primary glomerular nephritis. And its pathogenesis is not yet completely clear. The immune pathological characteristic is the deposition of immunoglobulin IgA in the glomerular membrane area. The main clinical manifestations are gross hematuresis and microscopic hematuresis. The propteinuria may also can be found.
Many patients with IgA Nephropathy tend to eat eggs, and this is not suitable. During the disease, the renal function and the metabolism decline obviously and the urine volume also is reduced, so the toxins in body can't be discharged. At this time if patients eat eggs, the metabolic waste—urea must increase, which can aggravate the illness condition. So patients with IgA Nephropathy should avoid taking eggs in the aggravation stage of disease, and in the stabilization stage, it is proper to take a few.
When the renal function is normal, the diet of IgA Nephropathy is not limited a lot. To take the diet with low salt and high-quality protein is all right. But if the Renal Insufficiency occurs, the intake of salt, protein and water etc. should be limited according to the specific condition. Nearly all of the patients with kidney disease, including patients with IgA Nephropathy, should mainly take vegetable oil. Regarding of the meat, the lean meat should given priority. And the patients also should supplement the food with high-quality and low protein and avoid fat meat, which can aggravate the kidney burden. The diet with high fat not only can worsen the kidney damage, but also can lead to the kidney damage of normal people.
To take fresh vegetables, adequate fruits and water is suitable for the patients with IgA Nephropathy. A reasonable diet for the patients is quite important. Although the items needed attention are tedious, as long as the patients and family member keep them in mind, the illness condition can be relieved, making patient integrate to normal person's life and work soon.
Patients should be given sufficient supplement of vitamin, especially vitamin C. For the patients who have been suffering from the IgA Nephropathy for a long time may have anemia, the vitamin C can increase the absorption of iron. The foods rich in the vitamin C are tomato, green vegetable, watermelon, cucumber and so on.
Patients with poor appetite should supplement vitamin C preparations, as well as the vitamin B and folic acid, which is favorable for the treatment of anemia. If patient has hyperkalemia, then the food high in potassium should be avoided.
