Customer Reviews

Excellent guide and cookbook for people with renal failure
I was given this book when I still had relatively good kidney function, now I have renal failure it has been invaluable. It provides fantastic recipes with guidance on low potassium and low phosphate. I have cooked most of the recipes in the book and would highly recommend this to anyone nearing kidney failure.
