Salt increases the quantity of fluid the body keeps. Minimize the volume of salt used for cooking. Salt can be replaced by seasoning herbs and lemon. Canned foods, processed meats, sauces, fast foods and salty snack foods should be avoided or consumed in smaller amounts because they are high in sodium.
Proteins place enormous stress on the kidneys. A large amount of protein may cause urea build up in the bloodstream. However, we still cannot eliminate protein completely because they help fight illness, build muscle tissues and heal injuries. Thus, we should adjust protein consumption according to our own medical conditions. Kidney disease victims can eat lean-protein, poultry and sea food.
Kidney disease patients should stay away from food items that are rich in potassium and phosphorus. In case of bad kidney function, phosphorus will build up, thus bringing about an fluctuations in the degree of calcium. It leaches calcium leading to weak and brittle bones. Potassium rich foods are oranges, bananas, sweet potatoes, nut products, avocados and tomato while cola drinks, chicken nuggets, deli meats, pudding mixes, packed instant soup and cookies are rich in phosphorus. These are better avoided or limited.
