Diet composition has long been known to influence acid-base balance by providing acid or base precursors. In general, foods rich in protein, such as meat, cheese, eggs, and others, increase the production of acid in the body, whereas fruit and vegetables increase alkalis. The capacity of acid or base production of any food is called potential renal acid load (PRAL). Diets high in PRAL induce a low-grade metabolic acidosis state, which is associated with the development of metabolic alterations such as insulin resistance, diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, bone disorders, low muscle mass and other complications. Please Doc, do your patients a favor and find an alternative to the chicken and cheese. Your Pizza may be 'kidney friendly' from a Potassium standpoint, but can hardly be considered healthy.

Wheat, flour and bran are a no no for kidneys

Jarred roasted red peppers are fairly high in sodium. Bad for kidney patients?
