Take the guesswork out of eating with kidney disease.

This clear, at-a-glance food list shows exactly what's safer to eat-and what to limit-when you're living with CKD, dialysis, or high blood pressure.
Kidney Disease Food List is a practical handbook for patients, caregivers, and professionals who need fast, reliable answers at the table, in the kitchen, or in the supermarket aisle. Instead of vague rules, it gives you structured guidance based on real nutrient data for sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and protein-so every serving you choose can better support your kidneys, heart, and blood pressure.

Inside, you will discover:

  • Hundreds of everyday foods rated with a simple Kidney Load Score (KLS 1-4) so you can instantly see which items are best choice, okay in moderation, or usually better to avoid.
  • Condition icons for CKD, dialysis, and hypertension, showing at a glance which foods fit non-dialysis CKD, hemodialysis/peritoneal dialysis, and blood-pressure-focused eating.
  • Clear lab-aware guidance that connects each nutrient (sodium, potassium, phosphorus, protein) to what's happening in your blood tests and symptoms-so the diet finally makes sense.
  • Easy-to-read tables with realistic serving sizes, using plain language rather than medical jargon, designed to be used right at the clinic desk, bedside, or grocery cart.
  • Step-by-step instructions on how to personalise the list with your kidney team, turning general guidance into your own tailored food plan.
Actionable Kitchen Strategies That Lower Mineral Load (Per Food)
  • The book doesn't just rate foods-it shows how to reduce mineral load before eating. Readers learn simple prep methods (soaking, boiling, leaching, rinsing, and discarding cooking water), no-salt swaps, and when these techniques actually help (and when they don't), so borderline foods can be made safer when appropriate.
Smarter Shopping Starts Here
  • The book teaches label-reading skills to avoid hidden kidney stressors. Readers learn how to spot phosphate additives (look for PHOS ingredients), identify stealth sodium in packaged/processed foods, and make quicker, safer grocery decisions without guessing.
