Nutritional Information & Recipes

Healthy Eating

We know eating healthfully is important, especially for people with kidney disease on dialysis. Following a nutritious diet can help you feel better and give you more energy. Your dialysis dietitian will meet with you to develop an eating plan that considers your kidney disease, the treatment you choose, and any other health conditions you may have. Your blood work results will help your dietitian make recommendations tailored to your needs.
