@reale I asked our moderator to move your discussion to an existing one https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/3rd-stage-kidney-disease/ so you could see what others have already spoken about .

Diet and kidney disease play an important part together! As you know, each person is different. There are many guidelines available to look at, including ones from American Kidney Foundation at their "kidney kitchen section" https://kitchen.kidneyfund.org/resources/guides-and-resources/ Be sure you are checking in with your drs about your kidney function.

I hope this helps you.
