28 Foods That Are Good For Your Kidneys

 5. Milk Alternatives

More and more research has come out that talks about how commonly used dairy products are not actually as healthy as we were made to believe. That’s because most milk and dairy products are actually high sources of saturated fat, which cause serious clogging to the heart’s arteries. This is why there are so many new milk alternatives on the market that are made from oat, soy, seeds, rice, hemp and certain nuts like almond and cashew. Although some people have shifted to these milk alternatives due to lactose intolerance, others have changed due to their kidney health. That’s because these alternatives are lower in potassium and phosphorous, both of which tend to be harmful for people with kidney issues.
