🚰 **Renal Diet HQ**, we dove deep into the essential topic of hydration for individuals with kidney disease. Mathea Ford, our seasoned host and renowned dietitian, shared a wealth of knowledge on this critical subject. Here are three key takeaways that everyone—especially those managing chronic kidney disease (CKD)—should know: - **Balance Your Fluids**: It's vital to manage your fluid intake with CKD. While proper hydration is crucial, overhydration can lead to complications in later stages of the disease. Maintain a delicate balance by tracking fluid intake, including the water content in foods. - **Choose Wisely**: Not all fluids and foods are kidney-friendly. Opt for water, specific herbal teas, and low-potassium fruits for infusions. High-sugar drinks like sodas can exacerbate kidney issues. Consult with a healthcare professional to find the best options for your condition. - **Monitor and Adjust**: Use a food diary to track both your fluid and food intake to prevent dehydration or fluid overload. Watch for signs of proper hydration, such as clear or light yellow urine, and be alert for symptoms of dehydration.
