Stay Clear of Canned Foods when Possible

It is just important to note that these canned foods do contain a high amount of sodium (to preserve and extend shelf life), and this can cause severe issues for your kidneys if consumed. Of course, they might be cheaper and more convenient for now, if you can, try dried beans or even frozen. For solace, you may drain and rinse your tin items like beans and tuna, but this method still doesn’t decrease all the salt contents.

What Bread Should I Eat?

Most of us have heard that whole wheat bread is a healthier choice, and we won’t discredit medical reports, but those suffering already from kidney issues may want to consider ditching whole-wheat options. This is as a result of the high levels of potassium and phosphorus found in bran and whole grains, meaning that surprisingly refined white bread may be a better choice. But for better heart health, consider spelt or rye bread. Don’t forget to keep in mind that shop-bought loaves contain added amounts of salt/sodium, and often sugar too. If you have health issues already best to ask medical experts what is best for you in this case.
