HELLO THANX FOR USING HCM
IT WOULD HAVE BETTER IF YOU HAVE MENTIONED HEIGHT AND WEIGHT .PROTEIN REQUIREMENTS ARE SLIGHTLY HIGH IN PATEINTS ON DIALYSIS WHEN COMPARED TO PATEINTS WITHOUT DIALYSIS.

INCLUDE LOW POTASSIUM, LOW PROTEIN ,LOW SODIUM FOODS.
VEGTABLES AND FRUITS LIKE CABBAGE, CAULIFLOWR, CARROT,CUCUMBER, ONION,APPLE, STRAWBERRIES, PINEAPPLE, PLUMS ARE IDEAL.
MILK 1-2 SERVINGS OF 250ML,INCLUDE ANIMAL PROTEINS IN RESTRICTED AMOUNTS.
AVOID CANNED FOODS, PROCESSED MEATS, BAKERY PRODUCTS, PAPADS, PICKLES AS THEY ARE HIGH SOURCES OF SODIUM AND INCREASES BLOOD PRESSURE.
