Low salt diet for kidney disease

[Jeanb1]

I have minimal change disease so low salt and restricted fluids. Also not sure about potassium and magnesium foods. I'm on steroids so bp and cholesterol are high due to meds.

Hi Jeanb1,

Welcome to the Healthy eating forum.

I saw 3 websites that might be helpful to your query - the first is from the NHS Choices and has some podcasts and resources related to Kidney health:

Kidney health (from NHS Choices website):

healthtalk.org/peoples-expe...

The second has details of diet issues, and is from the American Kidney Fund:

American Kidney Fund:

kidneyfund.org/kidney-disea...?

The third is the National Kidney Foundation, and also looks interesting:

National Kidney Foundation:

kidney.org/atoz/content/sod...

I hope those might be good places to seek information that will be helpful to you, but clearly your GP will be able to advise you on the best course of action for your personal health needs, and maybe they can refer you to a dietician who could also support you?
