What is the best meal for the patient with kidney failure? Choose fresh or frozen vegetables instead of canned vegetables. If you do use canned vegetables, drain and rinse them to remove extra salt before cooking or eating them. Avoid processed meats like ham, bacon, sausage, and lunch meats. Munch on fresh fruits and vegetables rather than crackers or other salty snacks.
The author has been a caregiver for nearly 25 years. Most recently to a family member with kidney failure. During the illness, information was, at best, confusing. In this book, he tries to make sense of hemodialysis, diet, kidney functions, and more. While this book may be titled Cookbook, it is so much more than cooking. It is understanding.
