Doctors pointed out that patients with kidney disease will have a decrease in their function of metabolizing potassium and phosphorus in the later stages of the disease, and nitrogen-containing waste formed after protein metabolism also needs to be eliminated by the kidney; and milk is just rich in phosphorus, potassium and protein, so patients with kidney disease should pay special attention to intake.

[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report]Milk contains many nutrients, including protein, sugar, fat, and even some minerals, so growing children or adults will recommend some milk supplementation. Lin Xuanren, director of the Peritoneal Dialysis Unit of the Asian University Affiliated Hospital, pointed out that milk is nutritious, but not everyone is suitable. Patients with kidney disease will have a decrease in their function of metabolizing potassium and phosphorus in the later stages of the disease, and nitrogen-containing waste formed after protein metabolism also needs to be eliminated by the kidney; while milk is just rich in phosphorus, potassium and protein, patients with kidney disease should pay special attention to intake.
Lin Xuanren on Facebook page “Induce people into the kidney・Lin Xuan as a doctor“Post a post to share the nutritional value of milk.
●protein: Casein accounts for about 80% of the total protein, and whey protein accounts for 20%. It is considered a high-quality protein, which is very suitable for people with calories and sarcopenia.
●Fat:This part is what has been criticized for before, because the fatty primary triglycerides of milk exist in the form of fatty primary triglycerides and contains a variety of fatty acids, including saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids. So, low-fat milk was produced later (but it is not certain whether there is low-fat milk or not).
●Vitamins:This is also one of the most commonly mentioned benefits of milk, with a lot of vitamins A, D, B2 and B12.
●Minerals:Calcium, phosphorus and potassium rich in minerals are all beneficial to growing children and the elderly!
Lin Xuanren shared that the reasons why kidney disease is not suitable for using milk as a nutritional supplement.
In the middle and late stages of kidney disease, the ability to excrete toxins will decrease, especially the ability to excrete potassium ions and phosphorus ions will decrease. Therefore, after the third stage of kidney disease, doctors will begin to recommend limiting the intake of phosphorus and potassium foods.
On the other hand, although protein is an essential nutrient for the human body, it will be metabolized into nitrogen-containing waste after eating it, and nitrogen-containing waste must be excreted by the kidneys. When nitrogen-containing waste is too in debt, the kidneys will be injured. Therefore, it is recommended to limit protein intake in the middle and late stages of kidney disease (after the third phase). Milk happens to be rich in protein and is rich in phosphorus and potassium, which are all necessary for kidney disease patients to avoid. Therefore, people with kidney disease generally do not recommend drinking more milk as a daily nutritional supplement.
