@susangail53 Diet seems to be the subject of so many questions and misinformation. First off, we are all different. What might work for one person in detail, is not always the best path for someone else. There are generalities. Watch your protein intake, along with phosphorous, calcium, sugars, potassium. Hydration is critical.

I have other health concerns besides kidney issues, so what works for me may not work for you. I have a renal dietician at my dialysis center who helps me, and answers so many questions I have! Beyond that, if you want to find a renal dietician, here is the link to renal dietician arm of Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics: https://www.renalnutrition.org/home Look on the top toolbar where there is a way to find a renal nutritionist in your area.

Hope this helps,
Ginger

All my potassium, protein, phosphorus, etc levels are normal. I do have an
appointment with the renal dietician at my nephrologist's office. The
doctor told me she will know everything about my kidney issues, as well as
other things, when I meet with her. Hoping this helps! Thanks!
