Guest guest Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Greetings, My dad (age: 65 yrs.) recently had a bad attack of viral flu that left him extremely weak. It also did something to the kidneys because the Dr. found elevated levels of protein in the urine. Technically speaking the albumin levels in urine are elevated (3+). The doctors are telling him to stop eating any foods containing protein - animal or plant based. So no milk, eggs, butter/ghee, no meat. Even vegetable protein such as lentils, beans, etc. are banned. He is also going to put him on medication (not sure what yet). My question is - what would be a natural, less medicated way of overcoming this condition. Are the doctors really justified in banning all protein, especially things like butter and eggs? No protein means a very limited diet - mostly just fruits and vegetables (i.e. worse than vegan!) Any advice/suggestions welcome. -Pratick ____________________________________________________ Start your day with - make it your home page http://www./r/hs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
