Diet for a Renal Failure Patient | වකුගඩු රෝගීන් සඳහා ආහාර වට්ටෝරු

The following diet plan is for persons with acute/chronic renal failure. Protein intake needs to be limited in order to decrease blood urea accumulation and to preserve already reduced renal function.

We have developed this model diet for a typical hospitalized patient. This is to be legislated in the future. Note that this diet has been developed to be prepared with minimal costs.
