Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i must advise you,diet is very important in renal disease.
As you've CKD stage 3, you must observe strict control of salt to 6g/day.
Avoid fresh fruits and coconut water.
You should take between 1500-2000cals/day, depending on body weight.
You should ask for a diet sheet for kidney patients from your nephrologist .
If you've any other doubts,you may send it, as a direct question to me .
