For people with IgAN, excessive sugar intake can be problematic because:
1. It may raise blood pressure
2. Could contribute to inflammation
3. May worsen kidney function if diabetes develops

Recommendations:
- Choose natural sweeteners in moderation
- Read food labels carefully
- Consider sugar-free alternatives
- Talk to your doctor about specific sugar limits for your situation

Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice about diet restrictions.
