6. Carbohydrates

For those on a renal diet who do not have to restrict carbohydrates, they can be a good source of energy. If a renal diet requires less protein, eating carbohydrates can make up for these calories.

Fruits, grains, breads, and vegetables are all good sources of carbs. High-calorie desserts can also replace these calories, as long as they do not contain nuts, bananas, dairy, or chocolate.
