People with compromised kidney function must adhere to a renal or kidney diet to cut down on the amount of waste in their blood.
When kidney function is compromised it does not filter or remove wastes properly. If wastes are left in the blood they can negatively effect a patients electrolytes. Following a kidney diet may also help promote your kidney function and slow progression of complete kidney failure.
