Eggs

Eggs are a good source of proteins needed for organ renewal.

When I was on dialysis (level 5, end-stage renal disease) the dietician was bugging me to eat more protein. After being hopitalized for over month, much of that time with limited fluid intake, I had little appetite, and most meats just stuck in my mouth. Eggs were my answer. Meanwhile the medical staff was trying to prepare me to consider a transplant and/or home dialysis.

The 4 jumbo eggs daily must have worked. A month later I was off dialysis (level 4 ESRD), and by another month had improved to level 3 ESRD; now aiming for level 2.

I'm still eating those 4 jumbo eggs (80 mg. salt each, 320 mg. total) daily whenever I can.

Watch out for salt in other foods that you might eat with the eggs: Most breads contain about 200 mg. of salt per slice, most bacon is loaded with salt, and most butters & margarines contain quite a bit -- more on bacon & bread in later posts.

Found at any grocery outlet.
