Kidney stones are a very common disease and if not treated promptly, the condition may worsen. Patients with kidney stones have many dietary taboos in their daily diet. Eating the right food can control the disease, but otherwise it may aggravate the disease and harm the body. So what should patients with kidney stones not eat? 1. Control calcium intake About 50% of stones are formed from calcium or products containing calcium. If your last kidney stones were mainly composed of calcium, you need to pay attention to your calcium intake. If you are taking nutritional supplements, you should first consult your doctor whether they are necessary. The second is to check your daily intake of high-calcium foods, including milk, cheese, cream and other dairy products. Milk and antacids may cause kidney stones. 2. Avoid eating foods rich in oxalate About 60% of stones are calcium oxalate stones. Therefore, you should limit your intake of foods rich in oxalate, including beans, beets, celery, chocolate, grapes, green peppers, cilantro, spinach, strawberries, and vegetables from the cabbage family. Also avoid alcohol, caffeine, tea, chocolate, dried figs, lamb, nuts, green peppers, black tea, poppy seeds, etc. 3. Pay attention to protein intake Kidney stones are directly related to protein intake. Protein can easily cause uric acid, calcium and phosphorus to appear in urine, leading to the formation of stones. If you have had calcium stones before, you should be careful about consuming too much protein, especially if you have a history of excess uric acid or cystine stones. Limit your intake to 180 grams of high-protein foods per day, including meat, cheese, chicken and fish. 4. Eat less salt If you have calcium stones, you should reduce your salt intake. You should reduce your daily salt intake to 2-3 grams. 5. Limit the amount of vitamin C If you are prone to calcium oxalate stone formation, you should limit your vitamin C intake. Exceeding 3-4 grams a day may increase the production of oxalic acid, thereby increasing the chance of stones. Do not take high-potency vitamin C supplements. |
