Personalised Meal Plan for Kidney Disease — Low Potassium, Low Phosphorus Nutrition
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires careful dietary management to slow progression and reduce symptoms. NutriPlan generates personalised 7-day meal plans that limit potassium, phosphorus and sodium while providing adequate protein and calories — tailored to your CKD stage (1–5).

How NutriPlan optimises for Renal Disease
Sodium restriction
Reducing sodium to under 2,000 mg per day helps control blood pressure and fluid retention — two key complications of CKD.
Potassium management
Damaged kidneys cannot regulate potassium effectively. High potassium can cause dangerous heart rhythm problems. Our plans track and limit potassium per meal.
Phosphorus control
Excess phosphorus weakens bones and damages blood vessels in CKD. Processed foods and dairy are the biggest sources — our plans prioritise whole foods with naturally lower phosphorus.
Adequate protein balance
Protein needs vary by CKD stage. Early stages may benefit from protein restriction to reduce kidney workload; dialysis patients need higher protein. Plans adapt to your stage.

Frequently asked questions
Should I follow a low-protein diet with CKD?+
It depends on your stage. Stages 1–3: moderate protein restriction (0.6–0.8g/kg/day) may slow progression. Stages 4–5 and dialysis: protein needs increase significantly. Always follow your nephrologist's specific targets.
Which foods are highest in phosphorus to avoid?+
Processed foods with phosphate additives (fizzy drinks, processed cheese, fast food) have the highest bioavailable phosphorus. Natural phosphorus in whole grains and legumes is less well absorbed. Our plans avoid phosphate-additive-heavy foods.
Can I still eat vegetables with CKD?+
Yes, but preparation matters. Boiling vegetables and discarding the water (leaching) removes up to 50% of potassium. Our plans use leaching techniques for higher-potassium vegetables.
