Most foods make me nauseous or I cannot taste. I use to love coffee but now it tastes terrible. I try to drink water. I miss Coke. Help!

I recommend that you bring this concern up to your doctor. Food changing in taste is not commonly heard of.

do those drinks have potassium...the orange ones?

Definitely report this to your specialist.

Definitely tru to stay away from dark colored sodas, this came from my nephrologist. Good luck.

Hmm did you have CoVid19 as well. Try Zinc rich foods also try Expresso it is better and healthier or matcha. Hemp oil without THM also works for some as for cola better not it causes a lot of issues including pain and heart disease but if you really must have drink zevia or a small serving of cola once in a while take care

Hi sparkie88, what does THM mean in relation to hemp oil? - Curleytop1

I've read on all the kidney sites that dark sodas like Coke are bad for you. My tastes change because I'm slightly nauseous all the time.

I saw one of your posts mentioned Stage 5. If you are Stage 5 then food not tasting good maybe be due to nausea.

You should discuss these problems with your Neph., PCP, and Renal Dietician.
