I have polycystic kidney disease. Im also into body building. How can I go about with minimal protein intake?

as the other people have stated seek your physicians approval first, in terms of protein intake i would focus more on the timing of the protein rather than the absolute daily amount. If your physician thinks this is okay , i would suggest around 6-10g of essential amino acids and L glutamine with 200ml of powerade before and also during your training session, with the increased blood flow possibly greater deliver if the EAA to the muscle and it could promote growth, i belive timing and not the amount is more important,

first of all i need more info on your workout habits. in my humble opinion protien drinks are not needed. a healthy diet is manditory. chicken breast and rice works well for me, and eat enough veg to move it through your body.

Don't eat junk food (McDonalds, etc.) because it will poison you.  Bread and grains should work.  Also, you should exercise your legs (ride a bicycle, for example) to gain some muscles.

Cardio + Light weight training + Proper Diet = Goal\n\n* Eat whole food\nTop weight loss tips\nEat whole foods that are as natural as possible. When you eat whole foods that are full of nutrients your body will know how much to eat and how much not to eat. You do not have to count calories because your body is a wonderful machine. Suggest eating veggies, fruits, and proteins. Stay away from junk food, fried food, and anything else that you feel is bad for you.\n\n* Eat fresh fruit\nEat at least two servings of fresh fruit every day. Choose whatever type of fruit is in season. Also consume protein because both fruits and protein can fill you up and it makes your stomach seem like its full.\n\n* Drink enough water\nDrink the best weight loss supplement known to man, water. Most people do not know the difference from being hungry for food or thirsty for water. A great deal of times people eat when they should drink. Most likely you will not feel as hungry if you are getting enough water. You will be satisfying the thirst, which is confused for hunger. Water also helps you digest food better. Drinking water before you eat will help fill you up.\n\n* Always chew your food\nAlways chew your food well. Chewing your food well will ensure that you get the most nutrients out of your food. Getting the most nutrients will satisfy your body therefore you will eat less. Another benefit of chewing well is that it helps aid in digestion.\n\n* Take small meals\nEat small, frequent meals in a day. Large meals tax your digestion system, making it work harder. Taking too much time in between meals makes you hungrier for the next meal. That means eat 5-6 meals a day instead of 3 huge meals a day.\n\n* Include protein at meal\nInclude good sources of protein at meal, chicken, fish, legumes, peanut, cottage cheese, eggs or yogurt.\n\n* Shut off TV while eating\nShut off the TV whenever you eat – that includes meals and snacks. Studies show that we automatically eat larger portions when we snack in front of the tube, and typically those foods are high in fat and sugar, which means excess calories!\n\n* Increase your physical activity ( Cardio )\nIncrease your physical activity. Most people are over weight because of a lack of physical activity. Start walking more, bicycling, walks your dog for longer periods of time, swim, dance and leave the car at home when you can. It’s important that you choose a physical activity that you enjoy because you’ll stick with it.\n\n*Weight training ( Light 5 to 10 lbs )\nbuy some dumbells that are 5-10 lbs and do some exercises with them. Search google: Dumbell exercises and you will see a bunch of useful links along with pictures and description on how to do it. When gaining weight but your doing everything correctly and see changes in your shape, that means you are building muscle and muscle weighs more than fat so dont be alarmed when that happens. You can workout in front of the TV and watch your favorite episode of whatever and it will make time go by faster\n\nThe website below has many different exercises listed and it has pictures to go along to show you how its properly done\nhttp://www.exrx.net/\n\nHere are some other useful sites\nhttp://www.diet-tips.com/exercise/index....\nhttp://www.toloseweight.org/\n\nBest of luck to you.\n\n*Keep in mind that genetics might play a role in determining your height, weight, and other things as well

Seems like you have a fast metabolism like me.  I think your best bet is to begin lifting weights and eating lots of protein in order to put on a little muscle.

Simple to the point answer workout full body routines 3 times a week. While eating 5-6 meals a day with carbs and fat and at least 1-1.5 grams of protien per pound of bodyweight, or just eat as much as you possibly can whenever you can but make sure its good food not greased up trash.\n\nThat would be the first to things you can start now. Supplementation isn't needed just yet since your diet and workout aren't setup yet, but if you absolutley had to get something get some whey protien and a multi vitamin. \n\nFull body routines consist of major compound movements that will put strength and muslce on you. Bench, deadlifts, squats, military press, chinups/pullups. Don't focus on doing any curls or isolation movements early on since you dont have the muscle to properly utilize those movements.\n\nhttp://www.t-nation.com  http://www.bodybuilding.com

Do you mean the Lindora diet?\n\nI checked it out, and it looks really expensive and like a high protein kind of thing with food items that you can buy online and daily support.  High protein diets are not good for your kidneys, so I wouldn't suggest it.  Save your money.\n\nGo to mypyramid.gov to find out what and how much you should eat and just follow that.   If you need help with recipes, you could go to a bookstore and you will find lots of good cookbooks to help you incorporate healthy foods into your diet.\n\nIf you need social support, try to find a local weight loss support group or join a fitness club.

Control your diet to contain lots of fresh fruits & salads and eat lots of boiled vegetable instead of oily or fatty foods. Simultaneously you can go exercising aerobically taking enough water or fluids always. If possible take only light dinner with boiled or lightly cooked vegetables without oil. Take lots of fluids always to assist in the metabolism.

This is very serious!  If you have all of this information, I'm assuming you have a doctor.  In that case you would be placed on a specific diet for kidney dysfunction and on medication.  I would offer you advice, however, your doctor is your best bet.  PLEASE get some medical help.  There are nurses that can teach you how to eat/drink to improve your kidney function before you have to go on a dialysis machine.  Godloveya.

get some high protein stuff like "boost" or "ensure" and drink those. also get some "protein shakes" that are like powder and can mix with milk and stuff to make weight gaining drinks. or just eat a ton of food all the time. i have and incredibly fast metabalism and im incredibly skinny even though i eat more than everyone i know... but to gain weight, those protein and calorie drinks are good stuff.

hi, don't take any protein formulas that's for sure....\nif you have a balanced diet you need nothing more as it means that you are ingesting all the right amino acids and vitamins. lots of weight exercise will give you what you want. all these people that take protein thinking that it helps them built up their muscles, the only thing that they do is to put a strain on their kidneys. body cannot use more protein just because you are having it. if you think about it, you will see that all these people exercise too much and that is what actually builts muscles and not the protein supplementation. there is a huge number of research on that so play it safe!EXERCISE (weight lifting) and a BALANCED DIET. 2 glasses of milk (300ml x 2) + a portion of fish or meat a day will provide all the protein you need for a day.

You must eat a high protein diet balanced with your fruits and vegs-you must co-ordinate a cardio with a weight lifting program-Don't over do it- you will rip and tear muscle and that will set you back indefinitely-and drink lots of water.
