Article No results yet Peer reviewed

Key takeaways

A review asking when fruits, vegetables, and legumes are safe for adults who have both high blood pressure and kidney disease. About 80 to 85 percent of people with kidney disease also have high blood pressure, and the review focuses on stages 3 to 5 before dialysis. It looks at gut bacteria and the fatty acids they make as a possible link between diet and blood pressure. It reports no new results, and the real question for readers, potassium safety in these foods, needs the full text and your own doctor.
