[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”24px”][vc_column_text]Use less salt and eat fewer salty foods: This may help to control blood pressure. It may also help reduce fluid weight gains between dialysis sessions since salt increases thirst and causes the body to retain (or hold on to) fluid.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”24px”][vc_column_text]People on dialysis need to eat more protein. Protein can help keep healthy blood protein levels and improve health. Protein also helps keep your muscles strong, helps wounds heal faster, strengthens your immune system, and helps improve overall health. Eat a high protein food (meat, fish, poultry, fresh pork, or eggs) at every meal, or about 8-10 ounces of high protein foods every day.<\/p>\n
3 ounces = the size of a deck of cards, a medium pork chop, a \u00bc pound hamburger patty, \u00bd chicken breast, a medium fish fillet.
\n1 ounce = 1 egg or \u00bc-cup egg substitute, \u00bc-cup tuna, \u00bc-cup ricotta cheese, 1 slice of low sodium lunchmeat, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, \u00bd ounce of nuts or seeds<\/p>\n
Note: Even though peanut butter, nuts, seeds, dried beans, peas, and lentils have protein, these foods are generally limited because they are high in both potassium and phosphorus.<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”one_column”][qode_elements_holder_item advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”48px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”24px”][vc_column_text]Unless you need to limit your calorie intake for weight loss and\/or manage carbohydrate intake for blood sugar control, you may eat, as you desire from this food group. Grains, cereals, and breads are a good source of calories. Most people need 6 -11 servings from this group each day.<\/p>\n Avoid \u201cwhole grain\u201d and \u201chigh fiber\u201d foods (like whole wheat bread, bran cereal and brown rice) to help you limit your intake of phosphorus. By limiting dairy\u2013based foods you protect your bones and blood vessels.[\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” z_index=””][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”one_column”][qode_elements_holder_item advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”48px”][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” z_index=”” css=”.vc_custom_1701947148221{background-color: #e9f2ff !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”one_column”][qode_elements_holder_item advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”98px 48px” item_padding_480=”98px 0 0 0″][vc_column_text]You should allow yourself to feel excited about eating new, different food when travelling, but remember as well that you will have to keep to some dietary rules to ensure your kidney disease is controlled and that you enjoy your holiday to the full.

\nDo not be afraid to ask questions in restaurants about how the dish is cooked, any detail you need about ingredients and information about portion sizes, salt content etc.
\nAs a renal patient, you might need to control thirst, avoid drinking too much and becoming overloaded with fluid. You can make this easier by controlling your salt intake.[\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
