Good nutrition is the key to good health for everyone. It is especially
important for people with chronic kidney disease. Even with the help of
artificial kidney treatments (dialysis), you cannot get rid of all the
wastes and fluids that build up in your body from what you eat and
drink. You can work closely with your renal dietitian to decide on a meal plan
that is best for you and includes some of your favorite foods. Your
individual meal plan will be based on your age, your weight, foods you
like, your dialysis treatments and other medical conditions such as
diabetes, heart disease and high blood pressure. It will be tailored to
your needs but may not meet the specific needs of other patients. Most
people with kidney disease must modify their intake of certain nutrients such as protein, potassium, sodium,
phosphorus and fluid. Each person has different needs. Following the
meal plan suggested by your renal dietitian will help you feel your
best.
