Why is food rich in potassium and phosphorus harmful for CKD? Patient with
chronic kidney disease especially those who have develop into uremia stage have
disorder of electrolyte.
When kidney can not function well, the ability of discharging potassium will
also decline, so the potassium will deposit into the body, leading to
hyperpotassaemia and arrhythmia. What’s worse, some can even die from too
excessive potassium. In addition, food which is low in sodium contains high
potassium. In our daily life, many people even use potassium to replace one
third of sodium. Firstly, potassium tastes salt. Secondly, in daily life, people
take in less potassium, and it always lies in vegetables, fruits, potatoes. In
China, the diet of Chinese people is mainly meat, which contains less
potassium.and Whether Ketoanalogues Can Decrease Creatinine and Potassium Level and Can You Cure Creatinine 5.5, Urea 185, Potassium 5.5 and Calcium 6.6
The discharge of phosphorus mainly takes place in kidney. Generally, advanced
stage of CKD patients can not discharge phosphorus well, thus leading to
hyperphosphatemia. When the GFR decreases to 40—80ML/min, the metabolism of
phosphorus begin to change. Although the parathyroid hormone increases, the
effective renal unites decrease, so the response to parathyroid hormone
decreases as well. In this case, phosphorus begin to accumulate in the body. At
the same time, the absorption to calcium decreases, which also leads to high
phosphorus.
