Nutrient Rich Palatable Food Products – Answer to Food Acceptability and Improved Nutrition in CKD Patients | Chapter 11 | Issues and Developments in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 7

 Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a limited appetite, and many of the medications they take cause nausea and gastroparesis. Because the majority of patients have diabetes and hypertension, they are unable to consume large amounts of salt and sugar. As a result, food palatability has a low appeal. It is necessary to explore on good appetising foods with appropriate nutrients in order to boost their consumption of healthy foods while keeping in mind their renal dietary regimen. This includes limiting the amount of potassium, salt, and moisture in diets. This is the focus of our current publication. Five renal food products were produced, and each was tasted by thirty volunteers from the sick group and the control group. All of the renal foods were well received, demonstrating their palatability.
