Can CKD Third Stage Patient Eat Wheat Grass

Wheatgrass is loaded with so many nutrients that your body isn’t hungering for other foods to compensate for any lack of vitamins or minerals. However, is it good for stage 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients to eat wheat grass?

Wheat grass is supposed to have a lot of health benefits, some are as below:

1. Control blood pressure

Regular intake of wheatgrass dilates the blood pathways hence reducing blood pressure. High blood pressure is a major complication of kidney disease and it should be controlled well to prevent further kidney damage.

2. Alleviate constipation

Constipation is a common manifestation of kidney disease. Wheat grass is great for constipation and keeping the bowels open.

3. Manage diabetes

Diabetes is a leading cause of kidney disease. Patients with diabetes should take treatment to manage it so as to reduce further damage on kidneys. Wheat grass improves glucose and lipid levels, which is a good tool for managing diabetes and stabilizing blood sugar levels.

4. Alleviate fatigue

Fatigue is also a common complication in kidney disease. Chlorophyll helps to increase oxygen supply in your body’s cells and tissues, contributing to cell regeneration, healing the body and reducing fatigue symptoms.

There are also other health benefits for kidney disease patients, but wheat grass can only be taken as health care product, which can not remedy kidney function. Therefore, it is necessary to take medical treatment for kidney function remedy. Thus, we recommend Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy to improve kidney function. This therapy can dilate blood vessels, prevent inflammation and coagulation, degrade extracellular matrix and provide necessary nutrients. In this way, kidney damage can be repaired to some extent and kidney function can be improved as well. This is the radical way for stage 3 kidney disease.
