Introduction In January of 1990, I had my twenty one month old Standard Poodle puppy euthanised. She was one of three puppies in a litter of eleven to die of Juvenile Renal Disease (JRD). All three of the puppies with the disease appeared healthy, and grew normally until clinical signs appeared at ten months in one, and twenty months in the other two. She died two weeks after being diagnosed. The disease is devastating. The prognosis is dismal. Nobody expects to lose a puppy of that age. Breeds Affected by Juvenile Renal Disease Symptoms Early symptoms of Juvenile Renal Disease include drinking copious amounts of water, something that might not be readily apparent in a house with more than one dog, frequent urination, and dilute urine which has little color or odor. Some affected puppies leak urine, many do not. Often a puppy owner's earliest complaint is about the difficulty of housebreaking a puppy later discovered to have JRD. The volume of water consumed, and, in some puppies,leakage of urine can make housebreaking a formidable task. As the disease progresses, vomiting, weight loss, anorexia, lethargy, and muscle weakness are seen. There is sometimes a chemical odor to the breath as a result of metabolic waste not being excreted by the kidneys. In breeds in which juvenile renal diseases are seen, symptoms may be noted as early as a few weeks after birth; and affected puppies are almost without exception symptomatic before two years of age. Some puppies fail to thrive: most grow normally until symptoms appear. Puppies with renal dysplasia may appear clinically normal for extended periods of time before developing signs of chronic renal failure. The rate at which renal dysplasia progresses to overt renal failure depends on the severity of the initial renal lesions. Dogs commonly do not exhibit clinical signs of renal failure until less than 25% of renal function remains. A dog with renal dysplasia affecting only one kidney may be symptom free, and the dog may live a normal lifetime.

Diet for renal failure
Kidneys remove toxins from our blood and dispose of them through urine. Unless they're working properly, human bodies begin to retain fluid; when the bloodstream is at capacity, this fluid is held by the cells, and begins to build up in lungs, the heart cavity, and anywhere else it can find to deposit itself. Extremities swell, so rings and shoes fit tighter. Faces puff up, and maybe our waistbands feel a bit more snug. But the seriousness of fluid build-up can't be ignored when it begins to affect heart and lung function. Most people experience some puffiness the day after an especially salty meal. The situation will resolve itself after a day or so, if the kidneys are working as they should, and a healthy person can help the situation along by drinking lots of waterthis helps to literally flush excess sodium. bodyOffer(31460) People with kidney (renal) failure don't have the luxury to indulge themselves, though; their kidneys struggle to process body fluids even on their best days. An overload of salt (sodium) in any form adds stress; taking in additional water does not help. In fact, in makes the situation worse. The combination of too much sodium and too much fluid can be life-threatening for kidney patients, whether or not they are on dialysis. Serious kidney dysfunction is called "end stage renal disease." This diagnosis means that a person is on the road to a regimen of dialysis and possible kidney transplant. Physicians use urine and blood tests to determine the seriousness of each patient's condition and to prescribe medications and diet guidelines to control the symptoms and the progress of the disease.

For Donors
Would you like to be a Donor? You can donate a kidney when you are alive or you can register for organ donation and carry a donor card for the donation of your kidney on your demise. In the latter case, donation depends on the cause of death and on how quickly your kin and treating doctors arrange for the harvest of organs. Being a Live Donor
Registering to be a donor

Who can donate a kidney?
  • Anyone who is generally healthy and has two fully functioning kidneys can be a live donor.
  • Your tissue type should match that of the patient.

What is the advantage of donating a live Kidney? To the donor, there is no discomfort. If his other kidney is healthy, it is adequate to perform all kidney functions. To the recipient the benefits are many:
  • The patient does not have to join the long queue for the availability of a kidney.
  • The quality of the organ tends to be superior to that of a kidney removed from a cadaver. The organ spends minimum time in storage.
  • The success rate of live kidney transplant is high.

Treatment Options
First, there are three treatment options available. Your renal care team will pick one to match your lifestyle and physical needs Treatment options vary with the nature and stage of the disease. Several medications, including corticosteroids, are available to treat or control early-stage kidney disease. In the case of late-state disease or kidney failure, the options include dialysis or kidney transplantation Non-treatment is also an option. However, the non treatment choice will lead to death. Second, you are the most important member of your renal care team. Other members include your doctor, your nurse, your family, your friends, self-help groups, dialysis clinic personnel, nutritionists or dieticians, and qualified social workers. Third, you are not alone. Estimates show that more than a million people worldwide have kidney failure. Dialysis The process of removing waste matter and maintaining electrolyte balance through diffusion is called dialysis. Usually performed by the kidneys, this is performed by artificial means in kidney patients. The two main types of dialysis are:
Peritoneal Dialysis

Peritoneal dialysis occurs inside the body. It uses your peritoneal membrane (the lining of you abdomen) as the filter. For this treatment, a tube called a catheter is surgically placed through the wall of your abdomen.

    This diet controls the amount of fluid, protein, sodium, and potassium. The controlled amounts of each of these nutrients are based on the person's blood levels of potassium, sodium, and urea, as well as the fluid balance, creatinine clearance, and blood pressure. If the blood levels indicate the need to adjust the intake of calcium and phosphorus, then the amounts allowed in the diet are changed. Functions
    The purpose of a diet that restricts protein, sodium, and potassium is to help the body decrease the waste products produced by metabolism, which are toxic if they are not eliminated from the body. This occurs from certain types of liver and kidney diseases. Recommendations
    a)The amount of protein allowed in the diet is determined by checking the amount of protein (and protein metabolic wastes) in the person's blood. Laboratory tests may include chem-20, creatinine, albumin, and blood urea nitrogen. Low-protein diets may prevent or slow the progress of some kinds of kidney disease. The amount of protein the person can eat is based on how well the kidneys are functioning and the amount of protein needed to maintain good health. Dialysis and the type of dialysis also influence protein needs.

Kidney diet - dialysis patients
Definition: This article describes the diet necessary in patients with end-stage renal disease on either hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. The diet is usually high in protein and low-sodium, low-potassium, and low-phosphorus. Fluid intake is also restricted.
Alternative Names: End Stage Renal disease - diet; Hemodialysis - diet; Peritoneal Dialysis - diet
Function: The purpose of this diet is to try and maintain a balance of electrolytes, minerals, and fluid in patients on dialysis. The special diet is important because dialysis alone does not effectively eliminate ALL waste products. These waste products can also accumulate between dialysis treatments. Most dialysis patients urinate very little or not at all, and therefore fluid restriction between treatments is very important. Without urination, fluid will accumulate and result in volume overload with excess fluid in the heart, lungs and ankles. Patients on dialysis need a high protein intake to maintain adequate nutrition. Patients can become malnourished on dialysis and poor nutrition can often predict poor outcomes. The diet will help dialysis patients feel as good as possible.

http://www.hcf-nutrition.org/soy_kidney2.html
Soy Foods and Kidney Health
A diet high in protein has been shown to accelerate the progression of kidney disease. For this reason, health professionals have for many years recommended that those individuals at risk for, and being treated for, renal disease modify their diet to limit the amount of protein that is consumed. This is a particularly difficult challenge for Americans who tend to consume protein in excess of dietary needs . The current recommendation is that pre-dialysis kidney disease patients limit their protein intake to 0.6 ­ 0.8 g/kg of body weight. However, individuals suffering from kidney disease should talk with their physician and registered dietitian to formulate a diet specific for their condition. On the basis of available evidence, a diet that is low in protein has been shown to have beneficial effects on kidney function. These same benefits may be seen with a soy- protein based meal plan. The soy-protein hypothesis predicts that substituting soy protein for animal protein in patients with diabetes may protect this population from developing diabetic nephropathy . It appears that soy protein helps to normalize glomerular filtration rates (GFR) and renal plasma flow. GFR is often used as a clinical marker to measure kidney health. Soy in the prevention of diabetic kidney disease
Approximately one-third of all individuals with diabetes will develop kidney disease; those with type 1 diabetes are at particularly high risk. Unfortunately, diabetic kidney disease, also called diabetic nephropathy, can eventually worsen to end-stage-renal disease. For this reason, health professionals recommend that those with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes take precautionary steps to prevent the onset of this debilitating condition. In particular, dietary protein restriction has been implemented in the diet of these individuals. Research is now focussing on the role that a diet rich in soy-protein may have in preventing the onset of diabetic nephropathy.

Renal Disease
Introduction:
In order to be able to know the relationship between nutrition and renal disease, you need to know a little about the kidneys and how they work.
The kidneys perform crucial functions that affect all parts of our body. Many organs in our body depend upon the kidneys to function normally and to stay in balance. When the kidneys fail or become damaged, other organs of the body got affected as well.
Functions of the kidneys:
  • The major role of the kidneys is to maintain balance of the body chemistry.
  • They kidneys remove metabolic waste products and excess fluids from the body.
  • The kidneys clear our blood from the waste metabolism through the production of urine that involves highly complex steps of excretion and re-absorption.
  • The kidneys perform this life-sustaining job through filtering about 200 quarts of fluid every 24 hours.
  • About two quarts are eliminated from the body in the form of urine and about 198 quarts are retained in the body.
  • The urine excreted has been stored in the bladder for approximately 1 to 8 hours.
