Best diet for Henoch Schonlein Purpura Nephritis Patient

Henoch Schonlein Purpura Nephritis is a secondary kidney disease which is caused by long time purpura. People are allergic to many things such as pollen, etc. Besides treatment, people also want to know the best diet which can help them avoid allergic reaction and relieve. The principles are generally as follows:
1. low amount of salt intake
Too much intake of salt can firstly lead to the increase of high blood pressure. If we take in much salt, we will take in more water. Water can combine with sodium easily, which leads to the retention of water and sodium in the body. The blood vessels will swell, the wall of blood vessels will become thinner and the barrier of blood vessels increases. In this case, edema came into being, which worsens Henoch Schonlein Purpura Nephritis.
2. more food rich in vitamin especially vitamin C
Eat more food rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C can decrease the permeability and brittleness of blood vessels. So patients with Purpura Nephritis should more food of this kind which is helpful to the recovery. Patients with Purpura Nephritis should eat some fruits rich in vitamin C like apple, orange, strawberry, kiwi fruit etc.
3. avoid allergic food
Patients should stop allergic food, such as milk, fish, shrimps, paewn, and other sea food, etc. Secondly, patients should choose delicate and nutritious food which is easily to digest and absorb. Try to avoid coarse food or food which contains much fibrosis, such as celery, rape, bamboo shoot, pineapple, which will abrade the gastrointestinal mucous membrane and induce or worsen the bleeding of gastrointestinal tract.
4. kimchi with no pepper and no rich salt
Can we eat kimchi? We can. Do not add more salt and pepper. More salt in kimchi will lead patients with kidney disease to drink more water, which will worsen edema or swelling if patients have it. And do not add pepper. Pepper and garlic, etc can stimulate the patients, which will worsen kidney damage as well. As we mentioned in the above, there are many kinds of kimchi and we can choose those which do not include pepper.
5. When the level of potassium is high, Henoch Schonlein Purpura Nephritis should stop bananas, oranges, etc, for they contain rich potassium.
