Dear Dr. XXXXXXX Bansal,
Thank you for the detailed explanation. I am enlightened and will carry out your advice.
I have some doubts on my food intake that I hope you can help further. As I have mentioned previously, on 1/11/13, I went on a 2 meal per day diet. I was told that taking 2 meals will help my
kidney recover. The amount of food I eat for the 2 meals is equivalent to the 3 meals that I used to consume. My weight decreased from 76kg to the current 69kg. Should I continue doing this 2 meal diet, which is a rather large amount or break it into 3 smaller meals?
When you mentioned protein intake of 0.8gm/kg of body weight, are you referring to animal meat? What about fish and eggs? Or does it also include bean curd and nuts?
Each day, I take 1 tablet of multi-vitamin, 1 tablet flaxseed oil 1000mg, 1 tablet fish oil 1200mg, 1 tablet of combining
ginkgo biloba 80mg, hawthorn 150mg, bilberry 40mg, 1 tablet
vitamin E 500IU, 1 tablet dandelion 187mg, 1 tablet vitamin D 400IU, 1 tablet Bio Quinone Q10 100mg, 1 tablet
vitamin C 500mg. Should I continue taking them? Or should I stop any one of supplements? Are they affecting kidney function?
In your experience, have you ever come across any patient with problem like mine and made complete recovery? Will I recover if I follow your recommendations strictly?
Thanking you in advance and hope to hear from you soon.
Best Regards,
