Water softeners remove minerals that cause water to be hard. As a by-product, they add sodium to your water. While for most people this sodium is not much, it can be up to 1/3 of a kidney disease patients daily sodium limit. Each 2 quarts of tap water could contain 160-240mg of sodium. Most Kidney Disease diets limit a person to 1500mg per day and require that you drink 3-4 quarts of water. This extra sodium cause swelling in kidney disease patients, high blood pressure, reduced kidney function, and a lower GFR. Dadvice TV breaks this all down and offers solutions for kidney disease patients to help maintain their daily sodium limits. Managing High Blood Pressure is important for kidney disease patients and part of controlling it is limiting sodium intake.

Kidney Health – When your kidneys are healthy, they remove waste and excess toxins from your blood. Kidney health is also important in regulating blood pressure and building strong bones.
When you have Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) your kidney disease directly impact your kidney function, reducing how well they remove toxins and waste from your blood. Patients with kidney disease also have difficulty controlling their blood pressure since it is one of the functions of a healthy kidney.
By not following a healthy kidney diet, you will eventually end up with end stage renal failure, also known as stage 5 kidney disease. At that point your kidney disease diet will become extremely strict and you will need to consider dialysis to stay alive. Dialysis does not duplicate all of the kidney function and it is hard on your body as it uses machines to detox your kidneys and remove waste and toxins from your blood. Dialysis is very tough on your body.
To prevent Kidney failure, follow your kidney doctor and kidney dieticians recommended renal diet. Renal diet is the medical term for kidney diet. There are foods to avoid with kidney disease that when eaten can damage your kidneys. You want to focus more on the foods that are kidney friendly and help with naturally detoxing your kidneys. A natural kidney cleanse is considered one of several home remedies for kidney disease, but it is not a natural cure. There is no natural cure or medical cure for Kidney Disease. But it is possible to improve your kidney function and increase your GFR through the proper kidney diet.
Some important things to limit or avoid on ALL kidney diets are sodium (slat), phosphate, potassium, carbohydrates (sugar), and protein. It is also good for your kidneys and overall health to avoid artificial sweeteners, artificial flavors, artificial preservatives, and highly processed foods.
If you have Chronic Kidney Disease you also must manage your blood sugar levels (diabetes) and high blood pressure (hypertension) very closely. Uncontrolled diabetes or high blood pressure can damage your kidneys, reduce kidney function, and increase toxins and waste in your blood. They also put additional stress on your kidneys, causing inflammation that reduces kidney function and lowers your GFR.
