About the PKD Diet

PKD diet ↙️
The PKD diet can be a bit different from a CKD diet.
This is because the cysts in PKD “react” to some different nutrients.
For example, salt and fluid balance is very important.
⭐️ Limit salt to no more than 2,300 mg/day.
Drink plenty of fluids as well. (If you’re on a doctor-ordered fluid restriction…be sure to follow that!)
Too much protein can be bad for kidney health, so don’t follow the diet trends of “protein-in-all-the-things” 🙄
Rather, try to pick plant-based proteins when you can. Plant proteins like edamame, tofu, and tempeh come with other kidney health benefits 🤩
