Diet plan overview
The hypertension diet plan for kidney disease is tailored to reduce strain on the kidneys while controlling blood pressure. It limits foods high in sodium, potassium, and phosphorus which can be harmful to kidney function. Instead, the focus is on balanced meals with controlled portions of proteins and plenty of vegetables that support both kidney health and blood pressure management.
It's also designed to be low in processed foods and rich in nutrients that assist in overall wellness. This diet encourages the consumption of foods that have natural anti-inflammatory properties, helping to protect kidney function while maintaining a stable blood pressure.

Foods to eat
Cauliflower: Low in potassium and rich in vitamins C and K.
Blueberries: Packed with antioxidants and low in potassium.
Garlic: Provides flavor without the need for extra salt and offers anti-inflammatory properties.
Egg Whites: High-quality protein source with low phosphorus content.
Skinless Chicken: A good protein source without excessive phosphorus and potassium.
✅ Tip

Canned Foods: Often high in sodium unless labeled ""low-sodium"" or ""no salt added.""
Dairy Products: Milk, cheese, and yogurt are high in phosphorus and potassium.
Dark-Colored Sodas: Contain phosphorus additives.
Whole Grains: Brown rice and whole wheat bread can be high in potassium and phosphorus.
