Children with nephrotic syndrome, if the condition is stable, no edema, no renal dysfunction, it is completely possible to eat pitaya, and it is recommended that such children eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and there is no restriction on water.

However, if the patient has edema, on the basis of strict salt restriction, it is also recommended to limit water intake. The daily intake of salt should be controlled at two to three grams, and the intake of water should be very strict.

At the same time, fruit is rich in water, and it is

also recommended to reduce the intake of pitaya, because pitaya is rich in potassium in addition to water. Patients with renal dysfunction are prone to hyperkalemia, and hyperkalemia is easy to cause ventricular fibrillation, which will lead to cardiac arrest and endanger the patient's life.
