Canned Foods
Canned foods are consumed at a high rate because of their availability and low cost. Examples of canned foods include beans, vegetables, and soups. It would help to note that most canned foods contain high levels of sodium because salt is usually added as a preservative to boost its shelf life. Doctors always advise people with kidney disease to avoid taking canned foods because they contain high levels of phosphorus and sodium. You can choose products labeled “no salt added” or products with low sodium levels. Also, you can drain and rinse canned foods, like tuna and canned beans to decrease the sodium content.
