Kidney stone patients generally eat a small amount of shrimp, but it is not recommended to eat too much shrimp.
Shrimp is rich in high-quality protein, minerals, vitamins and other nutrients. Shrimp contains more purine substances. When kidney stone patients eat too much shrimp, it may cause uric acid levels to rise, resulting in the formation of uric acid stones.
Patients usually need to increase water intake, which helps dilute urine and promote the formation of new urine. It helps to alleviate symptoms of renal colic.
