Diabetes and Dialyses - diet when you have both?!
Question: I'm having an old friend over for dinner who is diabetic and has severe kidney problems. He is on dialysis and while I have very good knowlegde of what it means to cook for someone with diabetes, I'm completely clueless when it comes to food for people on dialysis.
What do I need to watch out for? I was already told that fresh fruit is out due to the juice, what about other things I cannot serve?

People on dialysis are on whats called a renal diet. They are allowed a certain amount of flds a day..so any liquids they have add up on there fluid count. the big thing when cooking is no procssed foods. Renal diets can have no processed foods. So just remember that and they follow a strict fluid intake when making your dinner.
