Customer Review: When my mother was placed on a renal diet, we had no idea how to cook for her. This book is an excellent cookbook with easy, delicious recipes. The back of the book contains all the nutritional information you need to meet the criteria of your renal restrictions. I recommend this cookbook even if you don't have renal restrictions!

Customer Review: This is a good resource for dialysis patients and their families. Unfortunately, because the book is apparently out of print, there are some independant sellers engaging in shameless price gouging.
Paying $29.99 for a book listed at $24.00 is reasonable. However, charging $62.00 and up is outrageous!
Alibris, a company that sells out-of-print books, is allowing this book to be sold for over $206.00!! If that is not price gouging, I don't know what is. It is truly repulsive and should not be tolerated especially when this book is geared towards people who are sick, and more often than not, on a fixed income.

Customer Review: Although published in 1985, the recipes in this book present a wide range of main dishes, snacks, side dishes and desserts for a renal diabetic diet in which protein, potassium sodium, phosphorous and sugar intake are restricted. While the recipes address renal diet restrictions, diabetics are forewarned as sugar itself, not substitutes, is employed. However, the authors note that recipes with sugar content should not be consumed outside of an entire meal. Nutritional content is presented for each recipe, and the authors suggest that no ingredients substitutions be made (except for exchanging butter or margarine for their salt-free versions) as changes would alter the calculated nutritional values.
The recipes are relatively simple to prepare, serve from 2 - 10 (though generally provide 6-8 servings), and require ingredients easily procurable at any supermarket. The number of ingredients ranges considerably from 4 for "Spiced Tea" to 19 for "Coquilles St. Jacques". Spices are used extensively to provide flavor variety in lieu of salt, and include, for example, chili powder, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Herbs (sage, marjoram, thyme, parsley, basil, oregano, etc.) are presented in measures for dried herbs, but of course, fresh herbs could be substituted without altering nutritional content. The most exotic equipment used is the skewers required for "Shish Kabobs".
While many of the recipes contain items that are considered disallowed for renal or diabetic conditions, the authors generally stipulate in a recipe where a restricted item is present that the ingredient "has been calculated into the recipe." Small amounts of restricted foods on an occasional basis are tolerable, and the authors account for key nutritional aspects (number of servings, calories per serving, protein, fat, and carbohydrate content and sodium and potassium content) of each recipe in Section I of the book. In terms of dairy products (phosphorous and potassium sources), sour cream is used ("Veal Goulash", for example) as is yogurt ("Lamb Curry"). Milk and cream are employed in some main dishes, and cheese (sodium source), including cream cheese and cottage cheese, functions as a key ingredient in recipes. The name brand dairy product substitute Coffee Rich is used, occasionally, in place of a dairy product. Several potato (potassium source) recipes are given, and included in the directions is the soaking process required for use of potato...

Customer Review: I got this book along with many others in order to learn more about my renal disease. I read this one first, and was impressed by the clarity of the explanations. However, after reading more about renal diets I became aware that the nutritional information given in the book for specific foods was grossly incorrect.
I DO NOT reccommend using this book as a guide to meal planning and preparation. It is far too basic, leaves out too many foods, and furthermore it gives dangerously incorrect content levels of sodium, potassium, and phosphorus for specific foods. Upon reading other renal diet books it is clear that the levels of some foods are 3 to 4 times higher than stated in this book. Please be careful with your health and double check.

Also, this book is very misleading, in that it refuses to allow for vegetarian or low meat-protein diets. Many studies have been done that show that vegetarian diets are FINE for those with renal disease. Again, double check for the sake of your health.

Customer Review: This highly technical medical text provides an outstanding explanation of the nutritional needs of patients with renal disease. The chapter on calcium and phosphorus homeostasis is particularly well written. Because the writers assume the reader has a fundamental understanding of physiology and pathology of the kidney, this book is has limited usefulness for the casual reader. It is most valuable for medical professionals treating patients with renal disease or the medical student who hopes to get maximum benefit from a nephrology rotation.

Customer Review: Many of us kidney patients need to eat a low-protein diet to avoid dialysis. This book does not address protein at all!! It lists several delicious-looking, low-sodium recipes that are probably fine for dialysis and transplant patients. But for me? Worthless. I'm sending it back for a refund.
