Protein: Controlled protein intake to reduce kidney workload while maintaining muscle mass.
Sodium: Low-sodium diets help manage blood pressure and prevent fluid retention.
Potassium & Phosphorus: Regulated levels to avoid complications like heart rhythm problems or bone disease.
Fluids: Individualized fluid plans based on urine output and swelling status.
Our diet counseling is practical and culturally relevant, offering guidance on food choices, portion sizes, and cooking methods. We also educate patients on reading food labels, planning balanced meals, and avoiding hidden sources of harmful nutrients.
Lifestyle counseling is an equally important part of CKD care. We help patients make sustainable changes such as:
Regular physical activity suited to their ability and health status
Quitting smoking and alcohol to reduce kidney and cardiovascular risks
Weight management for overall health and better disease control
Stress reduction through relaxation techniques and support systems
Patients and their families receive ongoing education to understand the disease, recognize warning signs, and stay motivated in making healthy choices. For those with advanced CKD or preparing for dialysis or transplant, we provide transition-focused guidance to prepare the body and mind for the next steps.
At Sri Balaji Kidney Care Centre, our CKD diet and lifestyle counseling is designed to empower patients with the knowledge and tools they need to live better with kidney disease. With expert guidance, close follow-up, and compassionate support, we help you take charge of your kidney health and enhance your quality of life every day.
