Editorial Reviews:
This program is based on U.S. Surgeon General's and National Institutes of Health's guidelines for kidney disease dietary management. Proper nutrition can help patients feel better, prevent complications and slow the disease progression. The program has many sophisticated NutriGenie technologies and is an essential tool for any health professionals. It is also a perfect companion to The MAYO CLINIC Renal Diet Cookbook. Renal diet advice from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases: when choosing foods, you should remember to - Eat balanced amounts of foods high in protein such as meat and chicken. Animal protein is better used by your body than the protein found in vegetables and grains. - Watch the amount of potassium you eat. Potassium is a mineral found in salt substitutes, some fruits, vegetables, milk, chocolate, and nuts. Too much or too little potassium can be harmful to your heart. - Limit how much you drink. Fluids build up quickly in your body when your kidneys aren't working. Too much fluid makes your tissues swell. It also can cause high blood pressure and heart trouble. - Avoid salt. Salty foods make you thirsty and cause your body to hold water.
