@jeanice Your question is a good one, and honestly I don't have a good answer. I have seen renal dieticians associated with dialysis centers, or some large medical groups, but even when I was first diagnosed, there was no dietician to turn to. I had to become my own detective, and even passed on my new-found education to the dietician at my medical group. Because kidney disease patients have specific things to watch for, it can certainly make daily meal fixing a challenge, which @kamama94 is helping us all with, with her cookbooks!
https://www.davita.com/diet-nutrition/recipe-collections?p=1 has a collection of recipes [davita is one of the main dialysis companies in the US]
https://www.kidneyfund.org/kidney-disease/chronic-kidney-disease-ckd/kidney-friendly-diet-for-ckd.html [this is from American Kidney Fund, a non-profit organization]
In the end, we have to be in charge of our disease, and for me, knowing that I have the sayso based on my own tests, and personalising my diet, makes me feel stronger!

I certainly appreciate your post. My biggest problem is the financial part. The Vegan Salad Dressing are so expensive. And alo t of the ingredients. Can you make your own salad dressing? I only have so much to spend on food. I'm concentrating on Salads with lots of veggies. Vegetation Omelets etc.
