Have Citrus Fruit in Moderation
Oranges are a great source of vitamin C that the body needs, but it also has a high level of potassium, which the blood and kidneys don’t need. There is an estimated 333 mg of potassium in a large orange and 473 mg in a glass of its juice. This can be a little too high for those with kidney problems. You can always substitute with grapes, apples, or cranberries along with their juices (lower levels of potassium).

Avoid Pickles, Olives and Relish If You Can
For these foods to get their taste and be “cured”, they have lots of salt added before consumption. This should be avoided if you suffer from any kidney-related health issues. Also, though many groceries offer “reduced-salt” options, you are still not safe with them. Your best option is to pickle your own vegetables with far less salt and healthier options. You might just start a new lifelong hobby! Fermented foods provide vital probiotics for our systems.
