Tips for Picking the Best Cereal and Milk Combination

It is necessary for CKD (chronic kidney disease) to eat the food correct so as to slow down the development of the illness. Thereby, here I will give you some tips for picking the best cereal and milk combinations for CKD patients:

1. Choose cereals under 150 mg sodium per serving

2. Choose cereals under 100 mg potassium per serving

3. Cereals sold in bags instead of boxes are often a better buy.

4. Store brand cereals are usually less expensive than name brand cereals.

5. Avoid cereals with the word phosphorus or "phos" in the ingredient list.

6. Choose soy, almond, cashew, or rice milk for less phosphorus and less potassium than cow's milk.

7. Avoid cow's milk substitutes that are "Enriched" or have the word phosphorus or "phos" in the ingredient list.

8. For a change, try hot cereal like oatmeal, cream of wheat, cream of rice, or Malto-meal. Buy the original versions without added salt. Add brown sugar, blueberries, or a scattering of raisins. Southern favorites like corn meal mush and grits, with a dab of butter or honey, make great breakfast cereals too.

The CKD patients not only are acquired to take the well-planned diet and healthy lifestyle, but also should accept an effective treatment to recover.
