The 7 Biggest Kidney Diet Mistakes I See as a Kidney Doctor

The 7 Biggest Kidney Diet Mistakes I See as a Kidney Doctor One of the hardest parts about kidney disease is that the diagnosis is frightening and isolating, and when someone gets that diagnosis they start searching for dietary advice all over the internet. While there are some brilliant and educated kidney dietitians out there, unfortunately a lot of the advice is outdated, it's extreme, it's not related to their specific situation or it is just plain wrong. I am a Nephrologist ( a kidney doctor) and this week I am going to focus on the biggest food mistakes I see people with kidney disease make. While we are talking I am going to make my Mediterranean Chopped Salad for my lunch. It is a delicious recipe with crispy chickpeas and cumin, fresh parsley, cucumbers, and grape tomatoes. If you want the recipe you can find it here: https://www.thecookingdoc.co/recipes/... This recipe is great for people with kidney disease, as there are numerous advantages to incorporating more fruits and vegetables into your diet. They include added fiber, more alkaline foods, and extra plant based protein. If you need to adjust the potassium in the recipe, you'll find suggestions via the link.
