  • Fish delivers protein, and when you choose a fatty fish like tuna, salmon or trout, you're also getting omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fats may help reduce fat levels (triglycerides) in the blood and may also lower blood pressure, according to the National Kidney Foundation.

The article from MSN titled "13 Foods to Boost and Strengthen Your Kidneys" discusses various foods that can help maintain kidney health. It highlights the importance of diet in managing kidney function, especially for those with kidney disease or at risk of developing it. Key foods mentioned include berries, which are rich in antioxidants; fatty fish like salmon for omega-3 fatty acids; sweet potatoes for their high vitamin A content; dark leafy greens for their low potassium and phosphorus levels; and garlic for its anti-inflammatory properties. Other beneficial foods listed are apples, cranberries, olive oil, egg whites, cherries, red grapes, red bell peppers, and onions. Each food is noted for its specific nutrients or properties that support kidney health, such as reducing inflammation, providing essential vitamins, or aiding in blood pressure control. The article also emphasizes moderation and balance in diet to prevent overloading the kidneys with too much of any one nutrient, particularly potassium and phosphorus, which can be harmful in excess for kidney patients.
