Diet for Renal (kidney) disorders like Nephrotic Syndrome, Chronic Kidney diseases etc- Nephrotic syndrome is a condition where the ‘filters’ in the kidney become ‘leaky’ and large amounts of protein leak from your blood into your urine. The main symptom is fluid retention (oedema) which is mainly due to the low protein level in the blood.

A well-made kidney disease (Renal) diet Plan by Clinical Reg Dietician Geetanjali can replace lost protein and ensure efficient utilization of ingested proteins through provision of adequate calories.

Our program goes beyond generic advice — each plan is  customized to your medical history, lab reports, and lifestyle, by ensuring safe and effective results. With careful guidance on protein, fluids, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, Dietician Geetanjali helps

1. Protect kidney function and slow disease progression.
2. Stabilize blood pressure and electrolytes naturally.
3. Reduce fatigue, swelling, and complications.
4. Feel energized and confident in daily life.

Dietary changes can also help control hypertension, edema, and hyperlipidemia, and slow the progression of renal disease.

Kidney is the natural filters of the body. However due to certain medications, toxins and dyes there can be kidney diseases or kidney failure. This leads to a lot of losses of essential nutrients from the body.

Dietary modification at this stage can prevent a lot of nutrients loss and prevent further damage. A renal failure or kidney failure is a very major setback in one’s health.

The Renal disease diet limits the intake of protein, phosphorous calcium and sodium. This diet is very helpful for decreasing the amount of waste the body produces and helps the kidneys to function better.
