Why You Won’t See Me Making Nachos Anytime Soon
In writing some of my recent posts, I felt like I haven’t offered quite the best advice, especially in the way of useful ingredients. None of my recipes feature beans or cheese, and some other ingredients are limited. I’m writing this post to explain why that is.
I have end-stage renal disease (kidney failure), and I’m on dialysis. My kidneys can’t effectively remove the toxins in my blood, and dialysis isn’t nearly as effective at removing some of them as a healthy kidney. That means that I have to take in amounts of potassium, phosphorus, protein, and water that are different than a healthy person.
