Pomegranate Juice Benefits For Dialysis Patients

-
A new study shows that dialysis patients can benefit from pomegranate juice. A moderate amount of pomegranate juice contributes to their lipid profile, their blood pressure and the number of antihypertensive medications they required.
all components of the lipid profile (including total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and triglycerides) were improved in the pomegranate juice group.
patients who had a baseline systolic pressure of at least 140 mm Hg and drank pomegranate juice experienced a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure.
More patients in the study took few antihypertensive drugs after a period of drinking pomegranate juice. This may be related to the antioxidants that it contained.
This is good news for dialysis patients. Beside kidney problem, pomegranate juice is also good for patients with hypertension and cholesterol, which can lead to heart attack and stroke. People consuming this juice for a period of time have a fewer incidents of heart attack and stroke.
If you have kidney problems and would like to take pomegranate juice, you might like to inform your dietician and nephrologists first. It is because pomegranate juice contains high level of potassium. Patients with chronic kidney disease and dietary potassium restriction are especially prone to experience potassium overload.

 In summary, pomegranate juice is good for dialysis patients. However, you also should decide whether you can eat it or not according to your own medical conditions.
