How to prepare for a transplant
Preparing for a transplant is a life-changing journey that begins long before the operation. It’s about getting your body, mind, and lifestyle ready for the best possible outcome. Whether you’re waiting for a kidney or supporting someone through the process, preparation is key.
🥦 How to Follow a Renal (Kidney-Friendly) Diet
A renal diet is specially designed to support kidney health by reducing the strain on your kidneys and maintaining a balance of nutrients in your body. Whether you’re on the transplant list or managing kidney disease, this diet plays a vital role in your health journey.
Limit Sodium: Helps control blood pressure and reduce fluid buildup. Avoid salty snacks, canned foods, and processed meats.
Control Protein Intake: Too much protein can stress your kidneys. Choose high-quality sources like eggs, fish, and lean meats in moderation.
Watch Potassium & Phosphorus: Excess levels can be harmful for those with kidney issues. Limit foods like bananas, oranges, potatoes (high in potassium) and dairy, beans, colas (high in phosphorus).
Stay Hydrated—but Wisely: Fluid intake should be guided by your doctor based on your condition.
Eat Fresh: Focus on fresh fruits (low-potassium options like apples and berries), vegetables, and whole grains in kidney-safe portions.
