"Understanding Your Renal Diet"
Cost: $4.00
(VACRN Members) $1.50
This is a pictorial renal diet booklet featuring large pictures and printing-ideal for the patient with limited reading skills and/or problem eye sight. It is also perfect for use as a teaching tool and coloring book with the pediatric renal patient. Foods are divided into Milk, Meat, Starch, Vegetable, Fruit, Fat and Sweets groups, in addition to the simple, color-coded system they know best: the traffic stoplight. An added feature of this diet booklet is its ability to be modified, by the dietitian, for the patient with special needs such as diabetes and hypertension.
