We suggest the patients to take 100-200g lean meat, the rest of protein intake should be from rice and the product made from rice, vegetables, and fruits, and try your best to avoid beans, such as ormosia and mung bean, gluten products and nut fruits. When you limit protein, you have to combine with enough heat, in this way, you can maintain good nutrition.
