7Sugar
Sugar is a major risk factor of diabetes and obesity, both of them can result in chronic kidney disease. While most of us often add this ingredient to our daily meals, it is not actually a healthy option. By raising your blood sugar and blood pressure, sugar would damage blood vessels in your kidneys and reduce their functions. Thus, it is better to reduce sugar intake in your diet. Read the food labels carefully and go for those products with low sugary elements. Keep in mind that sugar is available in many forms, such as rice syrup, maltose, dextrose, barley malt, cane juice, glucose, and more. Look for these names on the ingredient list. [7]
