Avatar f tn ) He likes this well enough to eat it, but not well enough to use for training treats. Do any of you know of small, chewy, low protein, low phosphorus treats? Thanks!
Avatar n tn May I suggest a low protein diet, such as rice, mashed potatoes,tuna, boiled eggs (easiest protein to digest) and chicken. You can buy low protein food but it is very expensive, as least here in Canada. Your vet can advise you what to do; you may be able to have dialysis at this stage. I used to cook a large pot of potatoes or brown rice and add the eggs, tuna or chicken. She certainly loved that special food and it was proably better for her than the processed stuff anyway.
1943833 tn?1349276589 a protein restricted diet, received all the necessary nutrition for a healthy life. While your puppy will not have the same muscle mass as other dogs, I am confident the renal disease can be best kept in check through K/D. I am happy to hear that you are so concerned that you would consider taking time out of your schedule to cook for him, but a commercially prepared food is best.
1377925 tn?1278953663 ve been researching online and have found there to be a disagreement on whether to feed a puppy a low protein diet, as well as seeing other treatments involving high quality protein rather than low protein diets? I've seen a lot of sites recommending egg whites as it is high quality protein and low phosphorus. Should I consider adding egg whites on top of the prescription diet? Or would I need to choose to go with one or the other?
Avatar f tn s nearly impossible with 2000 mg of sodium limit daily. I hit the protein shake w/ chick pea n hemp protein. The whey protein made me tired. Too much bad protein can bring on HE. You'll find your balance where you can feel good. Lots of protein bars and dry cereals have high protein and I consume a lot of those!
Avatar f tn I am wondering if my intake of protein is too low. I have always had normal to oily hair and it has suddenly become dry and frizzy. Has anyone else experienced this symptom after reducing meat intake?
1415174 tn?1453243103 I have been on a very low fat, whole plant based diet for the last 2 years. This is after much reading and now I can't go back to eating the fatty western diet. I don't even care for it. It is interesting how the taste buds change fairly quickly even after a long time of having a bad diet. There is so much literature out there that shows how bad it is to eat a high fat diet and too much meat. Yet a lot of people are on the Paleo diet including some friends. It is very acidic.

Avatar n tn A little while ago i had a nondiabetic doctor recommend a low carbohydrate diet to help keep my blood sugars low and when i mentioned it to my endocrinologist she said that that type of diet puts extra strain on the kidneys and since diabetics are already prone to kidney problems they should avoit it. i would recommend that at your next doctor appointment you ask to be referred to a dietician to go over the proper diet aspects for a diabetic.
Avatar f tn I am a new mom, I delivered my baby 4 months ago, I want to go on a diet but I am afraid thst will affect my baby because I am breast feeding her
6403373 tn?1381003248 Along with veggies, opt for lean protein, such as that from low/no fat dairy, meat, eggs, beans, etc. Opt for whole grains, rather than refined grains. Avoid as much processed food as possible.
Avatar n tn What are some great quick and easy meals for breakfast lunch and dinner that are super low carb... I am a type one diabetic and because of the medicine im on its hard to loose weight... But this has worked in the past and I am bored of eating the same meals over and over ... Thank you !
Avatar f tn Therefore, people prone to encephalopathy are advised to maintain a high intake of vegetable protein and a low intake of animal protein, or even better, to become vegetarians. This type of diet will help control mental symptoms in people suffering from some degree of chronic encephalopathy—that is, those who have some degree of mental confusion and/or memory loss all the time.
Avatar m tn Do you think a low protein diet can stabilize a patient with stage four kidney disease? I have had stage 4 kidney disease for almost five years. I have maintained a creatinine level of 2.9 through diet. I watch my potassium, under 2,000 mg & have stopped eating animal protein. I still eat eggs & cheese but other than that no dairy. I think it is a small price to pay to avoid a kidney transplant. My weight is stable under this regimen after years of yo yo dieting.
Avatar n tn I have been diagonised with low Blood pressure. Can u suggest a suitable diet to regain normalcy?
Avatar m tn The vet detected he had a heart murmmur as well. His levels seem to be really low protien. Hes on a low protein diet. He's losing it through urine he believes. The vet told me he would not live long, however my dog shows no symptoms. No bowel problems. He is a happy playful dog. He had one episode last year where he retained fluid in his belly but after some meds it went down. What am i really looking at here as far as his future?
500923 tn?1210168927 Low carb diet - no bread - pasta - flour - limit whole grains - no sugar natural or artificial. Brown sugar Ok once in a while. Limit fruits high in sugar! Alcohol is sugar too. Limit milk products Maintain a high green veggie diet with lean "good" protein meats - hormone free! Nuts are good and yogart - I know it has milk - but it has many other supporting factors. It a tough change but you will adjust well and won't crave the other stuff after a while.
Avatar m tn Dr. W. I'm sure you've heard the phrase "fat and happy." Well, it's not just folklore. The same carbs that make you fat (and contribute to diabetes and other problems) also make you happy. It's simple science: Carbs allow more of the amino acid L-tryptophan to penetrate your brain. The L-tryptophan triggers your brain to make more serotonin, and the serotonin makes you feel happier. It's as simple as that!
1286779 tn?1400012806 Low carb high protein for sure helps. Eat low glysemic index. foods and stay away from highly processed foods and sugars. Eat real food and organic as much as you can. We also avoid gluten and only eat cereal, oats, bread,crackers, pasta and snacks that are gluten free. We also use raw goats milk from a local dairy farm, in our cereal and eat organic meats and eggs (farm fresh) as much as possible. These are all working well for my daughter who is nine and born without a thyroid gland.
Avatar f tn Recommend you have a daily intake of 1800 calories because you are exercising, too. The slower you lose the weight, the easier to maintain the weight.
Avatar f tn I love pizza, but since I make it myself, it is low on calories (little oil in dough, low fat cheese, lost of veggies, wholemeal flour). I only eat half, and if I am still hungry, I eat a side salad, with lemon juice instead of dressing. Look up the healthy food guide for fast, easy and low calorie recipes. Another, more radical approach is: no more carbs. Eat lots of veggies, one portion of fruit only, one handful of raw nuts, low fat dairy, high fat fish, lean meat.
973741 tn?1342342773 Basically, it looks like a basic diet that everyone agrees is the best way to eat. I can see a couple of things to watch out for -- it relies a lot on dairy, and the vast majority of humans don't have the ability to digest it so that could be a problem, but you can avoid it by just avoiding most of the dairy. It also is a very low fat diet, including the "good" fats, so that could also be a problem.
Avatar n tn Cardio is a no brainer, low impact pace, like swimming or walking. Do it daily and get plenty of rest as well. Eat lean protein regularly, especially if you have sugar craving. We often crave sugar because our amino acids are low. Fresh veggies, whole grain, drink lots of water. If you are getting all the nutrition you need, the body and brain will stop craving things that are bad for you. Americans don't eat enough whole grain.
Avatar f tn Southbeach and special K make high protein bars that have 10-12 gms protein and are low in calories. I also eat string cheese, cottage cheese, tuna, and snack on salted cashews. I eat vegetables with salt, and fat free margarine. You can eat the whole package. It seems the more protein, less sugar plus I do take fiber, I feel better diet wise. They also make antioxidant fiber bars you could snack on. Good luck.
Tbd 1. Low carb, adequate protein, fat for energy balance - otherwise known as ketogenic of low carb diet. In this diet carbs are typically restricted to 30g or less per day. This diet also includes abundant non-starchy, non-sweet vegetables and plant foods. 2. Very low fat, adequate protein, high carb. This is the plant based and even vegan diet that some are promoting. This diet does not have processed foods.
Avatar n tn I suffer from high "protein in urine" or high creatinine levels, now it's 2.4, but it was higher. I reccommend you read Dr. Walser's book on a low-protein, low-phoshorus diet to avoid dialysis. Your kidney doctor will probably tell you to go on a low-protein diet, but won't give you specifics. Dr. Walser's book explains the diet. It's rather hard diet to stick with, but beats the alternative.
Avatar m tn Harvard researchers put pre-obese people (they had just lost 10-15 percent of their body weight) on three different diets—a low-fat, high-carb diet; a low-glycemic diet with fewer carbs; and a high-protein, high-fat, Atkins-style diet. Each participant ate the same number of calories on each diet, yet at the end of the study, they found that people burned the most calories at rest while on the Atkins diet.
