Benefits of beet juice are powerful. People use beet juice as a home remedy for overall health although these may be lack of enough scientific proof. Well then, can beet juice be used with stage 4 CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease)?
Yes, kidney patients can take beet juice. Kidney patients can get the following benefits:
1. Lower high blood pressure
Beets produce a gas known as nitric oxide in the blood which widens blood vessels and arteries and lowers blood pressure. High blood pressure is one major risk factor for heart disease, stroke and kidney failure. Thus, it is important for stage 4 CKD patients to lower high blood pressure. Drinking beet juice can do some help.
2. Ease constipation
The cellulose content in beet root can ease bowel movement. Drinking beet juice regularly helps relieve chronic constipation. Constipation is a common complication in kidney patients.
3. Treat anemia
Damaged kidneys produce less red blood cells. In this condition, patients are prone to suffer from anemia. The iron in beets regenerates and reactivates the red blood cells and supplies fresh oxygen to the blood. Besides, copper in beets also make the iron more available to the body. This can relieve anemia from the root.
Beet juice can be used with stage 4 kidney disease. Following a healthy kidney diet is important for kidney patients. However, we can not make sure the diet we mentioned is suitable for everyone.
