Your Customers Will Never Stop to Use this Awesome Book!
Adults with chronic kidney disease are often advised to follow a low protein, low potassium, and low phosphorus diet.
This is necessary to help control the effects of this progressive disease.
The severity of kidney damage will determine the level of restriction that is needed.
If outpatients with chronic kidney disease are receiving renal replacement therapy (dialysis), a renal dietitian will be involved in the design of the diet.
If no renal replacement therapy is being received, a physician may still need to refer an individual to a dietitian to assess individual needs.
Any specific dietary approaches will be determined in consultation with the appropriate health care practitioner.
The main goals of this diet are to control the phosphorus and potassium levels, as well as to reduce the amount of protein in the diet.
This book covers:
- 30-Day Meal Plan
- Breakfast Recipes
- Lunch Recipes
- Dinner Recipes
- Soup and Stew Recipes
- Dessert Recipes
- And much more!
Renal diets are used in an attempt to limit the progression of kidney disease and also to decrease the likelihood of complications.
Kidney disease is characterized by progressive loss of nephrons, which are the functional units of the kidney.
This leads to a reduction in filtration rate, which results in higher water content of the blood and increased blood pressure.
In turn, this can cause angina, stroke, or heart failure.
To help stop further damage to the kidneys, patients with kidney disease follow a renal diet that is low in protein, phosphorus, and potassium.
