Foods that are not good for kidneys

I just met with a renal dietician. Very thorough and talked to me over an hour. It was recommended to go vegetarian, which is a bit difficult for me. I don't eat red meat; however love chicken and fish. So far my potassium, phosphorus, sodium, and protein levels are all in the normal range. I just want to keep things in the normal range! I highly recommend a renal nutritionist. She opened my eyes to a lot. Also, the app Chronometer is excellent. You log your food each day and everything is broken down as to the percentage you are eating for all the vitamins and minerals! This has really helped!

@susangail53 thank you for that info. I never heard of a Renal Dietician. I will find one of those. My diet is mostly fruits and veggies as was recommended by my Cardiologist. I sometimes eat chicken and fish. I'm worried about my sodium level as it's been going up and down for 5 yrs and every med the Nephrologist gives me reduces it even further. At the moment I'm on Urea tabs that make me tired and dizzy and my sodium is at 127
I'm at a point I dont know what to do
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

@susangail53 Unfortunately you did not mention that any use of Cronometer [sic] (*) requires a paid subscription. There is no free option that I have found. Why didn't you mention that or at least refute my statement? (* Chronometer is what you stated above. That is not the spelling of the app I found. If I downloaded the incorrect app, I apologize.)
