Prroteinuria is one typical symptom of Kidney Disease. But the quantity of urine protein cannot show the severity of kidney disease. Those patients with Chronic Kidney Diseasehave little urine protein, but that doesn’t mean their disease is slight. At the same time, amounts of urine protein don’t also show the serious kidney disease, like Nephritis with mild lesion or slight proliferation of mesangial cells, of which the urine protein is up to tens grams. Meanwhile, with serious focal segmental sclerosis nephritis, the urine protein is only few grams. Therefore, the quantity of urine protein is not direct manifestation of severity of kidney disease which depends on the kind and damage to renal functions.Diet for Reducing Proteinuria in Nephrotic Syndrome and Fruits for FSGS Patients With Severe Proteinuria

The daily intake of protein should be in 0.6-0.8g/kg of weight. For patients with uremia during dialysis, the protein intake should be up to 1.2-1.5g/kg weight. Due to plenty of protein lost, patients with Nephrotic Syndrome should relieve low protein content by taking in some high quality protein. But for patients with Azotemia or early stage of Renal Insufficiency, they should limit protein, or that will worsen renal functions. Therefore, patients should adjust their diet under the guidance of doctors.Proteinuria and Kidney Disease
