One of the most difficult times a chronic renal failure patient
faces is when they go out to eat. Eating out at restaurants you
love can be really an emotional time as you know that many foods
are not good for you or you are embarrassed to ask the cook to make
special changes for your diet. In this book, I explore many areas
of eating out including planning your trip, packing sack lunches
and general nutritional items that could be safer choices. Kidney
failure and diabetes in combination require both attention to
kidney disease limitations and diabetic exchanges. Dining out with
both these limits often causes stress and avoidance of dinner
invitations. Use this book to enjoy your life and make better
choices when eating out with renal failure and/or renal failure and
diabetes.
