Understanding CKD Nutrition
Why These Nutrients Matter
Potassium
High potassium levels can cause heart rhythm problems. CKD patients often need to limit potassium intake.
Phosphorus
Excess phosphorus can weaken bones and cause calcium deposits in blood vessels and organs.
Sodium
High sodium intake can increase blood pressure and fluid retention, putting extra strain on kidneys.
Protein
Protein breakdown creates waste products that kidneys must filter. Too much protein can worsen kidney function.
Preparation Tips
Soak high-potassium vegetables in water for 2-4 hours to reduce potassium content
Choose fresh or frozen vegetables over canned to reduce sodium intake
Use herbs and spices instead of salt to add flavor to your meals
Work with a registered dietitian to create a personalized meal plan
