Introduction
Under normal circumstances, for individuals with healthy kidney function, moderate daily consumption of jabuticaba can help replenish fluids and vitamins, promote urine production, assist in maintaining normal kidney metabolic function, and thus be beneficial to overall health as part of a balanced diet. However, for individuals with kidney diseases such as nephritis or renal failure, jabuticaba cannot repair impaired kidney function.

Under normal circumstances, Jabuticaba contains water and small amounts of nutrients, which may slightly aid metabolism in individuals with normal kidney function, but it has no effect on improving abnormal kidney function or kidney diseases. Detailed explanations are as follows:

For individuals with normal kidney function, moderate daily consumption of Jabuticaba can help replenish fluids and vitamins, promote urine production, assist in maintaining normal kidney metabolic function, and benefit overall health as part of a balanced diet.

If kidney diseases such as kidney failure or nephritis are present, Jabuticaba cannot repair damaged kidney function. In such cases, a diet low in salt and protein should be followed. Blind consumption may increase the burden on the kidneys and affect disease management.

Individuals with kidney-related issues should determine their condition through medical examinations, and dietary adjustments should be made under the guidance of a physician. If abnormalities such as changes in urine volume or edema occur, prompt medical consultation is necessary to identify the cause.
