Pre-Dialysis Diet – Tips For Eating On The Go What does that mean, eat on the go? A pre-dialysis diet requires that you follow certain restrictions and limit your intake of certain types of foods. Namely salty foods and foods high in protein. That will pose a challenge to you as you follow the limitations. I know that it’s sometimes hard to understand what to eat, and that is why – for the majority of the time – we recommend that you eat at home and eat food that you prepare. This allows you to control the portions and how the food is made.

You can download an app for your smart phone if you need to learn more about your foods.
