Kidney Disease/Dialysis
|

When your kidneys fail, your body holds fluid, your blood pressure rises, and harmful wastes build up in your body. Kidney failure, also called chronic renal disease, can be controlled with a renal diet and kidney dialysis. A renal diet limits salt, protein and fluids, and may also restrict you from having foods high in potassium and phosphorus. Dialysis is a medical procedure that cleans and filters your blood. Dialysis is helpful in removing fluid, salt, and waste products, but it can also remove important nutrients that your body needs. Eating well and following your diet can help prevent the loss of nutrients that can occur with this chronic condition.
If you have a kidney condition or are on dialysis, your doctor has prescribed a specific diet for you. If you have questions about your diet, be sure to ask your health care professional about your dietary needs, and if nutritional support is right for you.
