    i typed in diet for kidney failure on youtube.

    looks like some interesting choices and advice.

    that's the best i can do because i don't really know anything about kidney failure.

    unlike Adam. i have little faith in doctors knowing much about diet when it comes to any disease.

    treatment and meds are their speciality

    You can't go completely without protein, protein is a necessary nutrient.

    Talk to the doctor who diagnosed you, get clear, complete instructions. You have a medical condition, meaning you need real medical advice - you don't get that on the internet.
