Low-Sodium and Lower-Protein Recipe Ideas for Ckd

Asked Apr 24, 2024 by Deglin K.

Love the site, experience and recipes. Sadly, I have recently been diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). This effective means much less sodium and for me inparticular, less protein.

While there a many recipes, they tend to be bland. I've been surprised to learn that per 3 oz serving, the amount of protein per serving is as follows:

Chicken, 28 grams; Steak, 26; Turkey, 25; Lamb, 23; Pork, 22; Salmon, 22; Tuna, 22; shrimp, 20; and Lobster, 16.

Please consider some focus on CKD recipes and ideas. Lots of pre/diabetes patients would love your help!
