Fresh Is Best
Choose fresh or frozen skinless poultry, fish, and lean cuts of meat rather than those that are marinated, canned, smoked, brined, or cured. These foods are less likely to contain excessive amounts of sodium or salt, which could increase a patient’s risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and kidney failure.
If you wish to get your loved one reliable meal preparation and planning services, we would be more than happy to help.

Limit Fast Food Consumption
Fast foods are an easy substitute for home cooking, but they’re almost always high in fat, calories, sugar, and salt. Make healthier food choices and avoid eating too much junk to prevent health complications.
