The kidney diet is a
set of guidelines for patients experiencing some level of
kidney failure. Because every kidney patient is unique,
each kidney diet may be slightly different.
People who
have been diagnosed with kidney failure should see a
renal dietician to determine the exact specifications of
the kidney diet they should follow.
Whether a person
is experiencing early or late stages of kidney failure,
whether they are receiving dialysis treatment and
which type, as well as regular nutritional factors such
as height, age, and weight will play a role in determining
what sort of diet should be followed.
In any case,
renal patients must be very careful and take their diet
seriously. Careful adherence to a kidney diet can lessen
the symptoms of kidney failure and prolong the usefulness
of the kidneys.
