15 Super Foods for your Kidneys

I have begun my kidney health research. One of the first websites I came across was the DaVita website. From what I gather, DaVita is a company that specializes in dialysis and other treatments for kidney disease. There is a lot of information on their website about diet and nutrition. They compiled a list of 15 super foods for your kidneys.

Here they are:

1) Red Bell Pepper
2) Cabbage
3) Cauliflower
4) Garlic
5) Onions
6) Apples
7) Cranberries
8) Blueberries
9) Raspberries
10) Strawberries
11) Cherries
12) Red Grapes
13) Egg Whites
14) Oily Fish
15) Olive Oil

Sadly, my husband isn't much of a fruit fan. On this list, he enjoys red bell peppers, apples, and fish. It shouldn't be too hard to continue using olive oil, garlic, onion, and egg whites in my cooking. Cabbage will be a far shot, but I might be able to get some cauliflower down him.

This DaVita website claims to have over 700 kidney-friendly recipes. I just might have to sign up!
