First, keep a low salty diet and control the intake of salt. The daily intake of salt should not be more than 3 grams.
Second, If your creatinine levels are high, your doctor may suggest you limit the amount of protein in your diet. Eating more protein than your body needs increases the amount of waste your kidneys need to remove, making them work harder.
Be Careful With High-Potassium Foods You may also need to limit your intake of foods high in potassium when your creatinine levels are high. Your kidneys are responsible for balancing the amount of potassium in your body. High levels of potassium may lead to an irregular heartbeat or even a heart attack. Fruits and vegetables are the primary source of potassium in the diet. Oranges, bananas, potatoes and broccoli are considered high-potassium foods. Eating mostly low-potassium fruits and vegetables, such as apples, blueberries, corn and cucumbers, may help you keep blood potassium levels within a normal range.
Having high levels of phosphorus in your blood causes your body to pull calcium out of your bones, which may weaken them. Limiting your intake of foods high in phosphorus, such as chocolate, organ meats, beans and milk, may help improve blood phosphorus levels and keep your bones healthy and strong.
Finally, patients with high creatinine level in blood can't eat fatty foods. They can control the intake of fatty food through the following two kinds of measures: 1. They should put less oil when cooking. Meanwhile, they should keep away from the fried and greasy food. 2. They should choose little or no saturated fatty acid plant oil.
