Hello...I’m new to the group. Didn’t realize I was in trouble until I found myself in trouble...the minute the lights “went on”, I started researching and stopped a lot of bad kidney habits! My labs had a slight improvement just after a few weeks of being renal smarter. It was probably what I quit eating more than what I’m eating now. I just finished a two hour nutrition “course” but it contradicts a lot of the info on the internet...DaVita. The only issue I have with labs are creatinine and flow... Now, I’m unsure of my food..I’m afraid to eat. One says I can’t have dairy, and one says I can have dairy.....HELP...

Hi, sissieann. The info on the site you mentioned I also have found not to be accurate. There are two very good websites I do trust, though. One is Self which lists the nutrients in a lot of foods, including potassium, sodium and phosphorus on their nutrition data page and another is my food data (no spaces) with a search tool. As a new member I'm not supposed to post links or URLs but Rosemarya might be able to post them again if you don't find them in this thread.

amu45sin here.
You are right. Everything I read contradicts whatever else I read.
Small portions are probably the key.
