No potatoes, no milk lots of no nos. Reipes must be low in phosphous (I should have looked up how to spell) LOL. And also low in potassium. Any help would be appreciated. Follow-Up Postings: RE: LOOKING for: end stage renal disease dialysis patients Posted by: My Page ) on Wed, Jun 5, 02 at 2:04 I think you should ask the nephrologist for a referral to a dietician or call the staff at the dialysis unit for names of a dietician. I found a website that may help. Here is a link that might be useful: Resource for dietary info for ESRD RE: LOOKING for: end stage renal disease dialysis patients Posted by: friedalp My Page ) on Fri, Nov 8, 02 at 16:57 This is for gran2oo. You can occasionaly use potatoes provided you chop and soak them for 6-8 hours and disgard water afterward. Then you can prepare them anyway you like. My mother recently started dialysis due to kidney failure as a result of her diabetes. I have also moved her in with me to take care of her. So I am faced with the challenge of preparing special meals. I just focus on all the things she CAN eat and that's it! I replace the tomatoes with the small green tomatillos and I also use red or green hot sauces choosing the labels with the least amount of salt. Good luck!

Genzyme UK Home Genzyme Corporate Home Search Contact Us ... Diagnostic Products About End Stage Renal Disease Approximately 225,000 people in Europe, 300,000 people in the United States and one million worldwide suffer from end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and depend on haemodialysis to replace their kidney function. ESRD occurs when a significant portion of normal kidney function is lost. Healthy kidneys concentrate waste materials in the urine, maintain fluid (water) balance, manufacture vitamin D, stimulate red blood cell production, and maintain good bone and cardiac health by controlling serum phosphorus levels. Physicians use haemodialysis to clear waste materials and excess water from the blood of ESRD patients. Vitamin D supplements and injections of erythropoietin (a red blood cell production agent) can be given when needed. However, serum phosphorus is not easily controlled and is largely a function of diet. Therefore, several therapeutic approaches (haemodialysis, dietary restrictions, and phosphate binders) are usually necessary to adequately control serum phosphorus levels. Haemodialysis alone is not able to effectively clear total body phosphorus since it is mainly found in our cells. Dietary phosphorus restriction reduces vital protein intake and can lead to malnutrition. Phosphate-binding agents may be effective in decreasing intestinal phosphorus absorption but in the longer term some phosphate binders are associated with such problems as aluminium toxicity, hypercalcaemia, extraskeletal calcification with increased risk of cardiac and coronary artery disease.

The Internet Vet Column Tue, Feb 28 1995 This Internet Vet Column comes to you from Dr. Derek Duval. Feline Kidney Disease I received a number of letters requesting information about kidney disease in cats and how diet may be important in its cause and treatment. Many cats will develop renal (kidney) insufficiency as they age. With age the kidneys will loose nephrons (the functional unit of the kidney) and renal failure will result. The kidney (like the liver) has a large built in reserve capacity. By the time we see signs are renal insufficiency 60-75% of the renal mass is lost. The first signs are usually loss of the ability to concentrate the urine which results in increased drinking and urinating. With more damage the toxins that are normally filtered by the kidney begin to build up and can cause depression, decreased appetite, a foul odor to the breath, oral ulceration, and vomiting. In the end stage of renal failure, a low body temperature, seizures, and severe depression and coma can result. In the urine we look for signs of infection, ability to concentrate, and loss of protein. When cats with healthy kidneys become dehydrated the urine will become concentrated. Cats with renal insufficiency cannot concentrate their urine despite being dehydrated. Therefore, a urine sample is very important to the evaluation of renal disease.

DISCUSSION BOARD PANEL DE DISCUSION PROTEINURIA AND RENAL DISEASE PROGRESSION Giuseppe Remuzzi Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research, Unit of Nephrology and Dialysis Ospedali Riuniti di Bergamo Correspondence to: Giuseppe Remuzzi, MD. Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research Via Gavazzeni 11, 24125 Bergamo - Italy Tel. +39-035-319888; Fax +39-035-319331 E-mail: gremuzzi@cyberg.it Introduction Progression to irreversible renal parenchymal damage and end-stage renal disease is the final common pathway of chronic proteinuric nephropathies and is relatively independent of the type of initial insult [1]. In animals, a reduction in nephron mass exposes the remaining nephrons to adaptive hemodynamic changes that are intended to sustain renal function but may be detrimental in the long term [2,3]. High glomerular capillary pressure impairs glomerular permeability to proteins, which are then filtered in excessive quantities and reach the lumen of the proximal tubule [4]. In the past the amount of proteins found in the urine, taken as an indicator of the underlying abnormality in glomerular permeability, was considered by most nephrologists simply as a marker of the severity of renal lesions. Today the results of many studies indicate that proteins filtered through the glomerular capillary may have intrinsic renal toxicity, which together with other independent risk factors such as hypertension, can play a contributory role in the progression of renal damage [1,5]. Indeed, the secondary process of reabsorption of filtered proteins can contribute substantially to renal interstitial injury by activating intracellular events, including up-regulation of vasoactive and inflammatory genes. The corresponding molecules formed in excessive amounts by the renal tubules cause an interstitial inflammatory reaction that normally precedes renal scarring and correlates with declining renal function [1] (Figure 1).

Kidney Disease Introduction Normal Kidney Anatomy Normal Kidney Physiology Abnormal Kidney Physiology ... Prognosis Introduction One of the more common conditions encountered in pets, especially as they age, is kidney (renal) disease. This disease is particularly prevalent in older cats, and is called chronic renal failure (CRF). Click here if you would like to proceed right to the treatment of CRF. Cats that have kidney disease commonly have other problems that need careful attention if the kidney problem is to be treated successfully. Some of these other common problems are hyperthyroidism , heart disease, dental disease sugar diabetes (diabetes mellitus ), and high blood pressure (hypertension ) leading to blindness. This page describing kidney disease is very thorough. We have a summary page on kidney disease if that better suits your needs. Several medical terms are used when describing kidney disease: azotemia - excess nitrogenous waste products in the bloodstream hypophosphatemia - low blood phosphorous hypokalemia - low blood potassium level hyperphosphatemia - high blood phosphorous hyperkalemia - high blood potassium level polydypsia - excess drinking anemia - low red blood cells polyuria - excess urinating BUN - blood urea nitrogen PU/PD - polyuria and polydypsia GFR - glomerular filtration rate CRF -chronic renal failure hypertension - high blood pressure ARF - acute renal failure

The effect of dietary protein restriction on the progression of diabetic and nondiabetic renal diseases: a meta-analysis. Ann Intern med 1996; 124: 627-32. Reviewed by Rob Chasuk, M.D. Clinical question Does dietary protein restriction slow the progression of diabetic and nondiabetic renal disease? Background Previously published studies and one meta-analysis have not shown a consistently beneficial effect of dietary protein restriction on the progression of chronic renal disease. In this meta-analysis, new data are incorporated from a large, randomized, controlled study. Population studied This paper is a report of two separate meta-analyses of clinical trials studying patients with chronic renal disease; two groups are analyzed, those with a variety of nondiabetic renal diseases and those with diabetic nephropathy. (Meta-analysis is a type of review article which uses quantitative methods to summarize the results in the medical literature pertaining to a specific clinical question). The English-language MEDLINE database was searched from January 1966 through December 1994. Other studies were identified from references of reviews, published articles and publications by authors of the identified trials. Study design and validity For the analysis of nondiabetic renal disease, studies were included if they used a randomized, controlled design, had a mean follow-up of more than one year and reported the number of patients who developed renal failure or died. All of these studies used an intention-to-treat design in which patients were included in their assigned diet group whether or not they actually achieved the prescribed level of protein restriction. Studies on diabetic nephropathy were included if they involved type I diabetics, used a randomized, concurrent control design or a nonrandomized crossover design, and had a mean follow-up of more than nine months. Five published studies were identified for each analysis. Two authors extracted data from each study and disagreements were resolved in conference. The studies were homogeneous: this means that the magnitude of treatment effect was consistent between studies.

Figure 1 Overview Although the cost of screening the general adult population would be equivalent to the cost of caring for 5 hemodialysis patients for one year, effective nontoxic therapy is not available for most renal diseases detected by dipstick urine testing. Thus, screening is not advocated except in those patients with IDDM. Burden of Suffering Over 3,000 patients are on ESRD programs (dialysis and transplantation) in Canada. An additional 2,000 patients enter dialysis programs every year, an annual increase of 7%.
