Because the kidneys can no longer filter and eliminate waste products and excess fluid, kidney diets are focused on maintaining adequate nutrition and keeping minerals and electrolytes in balance. Renal dietitians work closely with individual patients to create customized diet plans based on treatment type, disease stage and related conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes. The DaVita Diet Helper offers kidney patients recipes that are high-protein, low-phosphorus, low-potassium and low-sodium. Kidney-friendly football favorites include: Arizona Cardinals Barb
