Fresh apples: Contains a lot of soluble fiber, especially pectin, which helps control blood lipids and blood sugar, thereby reducing the metabolic burden on the kidneys.
The potassium content in apples is lower than in bananas or oranges, so it is considered a safe choice.
Low- potassium fruits such as apples or pears can be eaten as a daily snack without putting pressure on the kidneys.
You can wash and cut the pieces to eat or take with you when going to work, going to school, which is both convenient and healthy.
Avocado-free roasted corn: Many people think avocado-free roasted corn is not good, but if it is processed simply, without butter, without salt and without sugar, this is a snack rich in fiber, low in potassium, low in phosphorus.
The National Kidney Foundation (USA) recommends that people with kidney disease can eat avocado-free, non-spicy roasted corn as a snack, thanks to the fiber content that aids digestion and creates a feeling of fullness.
Can be made at home by roasting dried corn on a non-stick pan or a corn explorer, absolutely avoid industrial butter roasting packages that are high in sodium and additives.
Low-salt brown rice cake: Brown rice contains many B vitamins and fiber, when processed into baked rice cake or low-salt pressed rice cake, it will become a light snack.
Supplementing whole grains appropriately helps improve inflammation index and reduce the risk of developing chronic kidney disease. However, it is necessary to choose non-spiced rice cakes that are not high in salt.
Rice cakes can be combined with a thin layer of nut butter (such as unsalted almond butter) to enhance the flavor while still being safe.
unsweetened yogurt: Although yogurt contains protein and phosphorus, in small amounts (about half a box/day) is still considered safe and provides good bacteria for the digestive system.
Unsweetened, low-fat yogurt can be used as a snack for people with weak kidneys if included in the total amount of protein per day.
The bacteria in yogurt also help reduce constipation, a common problem in chronic kidney patients due to a diet low in vegetables.
People with weak kidneys need to pay attention to their total amount of protein, potassium and phosphorus throughout the day.
Do not eat too much even though that dish is considered " Strength". Prioritize home processing to control salt, sugar and fat.
Drink with moderate water, do not use soft drinks or energy drinks because they can easily increase the burden on the kidneys.
