Book Description

Publication Date: June 1, 1987

Special diets are often difficult to follow because they soon become boring and monotonous. This cookbook was written to add variety and imagination to readers' diets. Favorite everyday and special occasion recipes are given to make meals more pleasurable and the diets easier to follow. This cookbook has been compiled through the efforts of many individuals at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. Renal patients submitted many recipes, and all recipes have been tested in the Cleveland Clinic Foundation Department of Nutrition Therapy test kitchen. Dialysis and pre-dialysis patients use this book. It contains 288 recipes for holidays and entertaining as well as for everyday use. Directions are easy to follow and printed in extra-large type. Recipes are modified for sodium, potassium, protein and fluid control. Most recipes use ingredients already at hand; only a few dietetic foods are required. Index and nutrient analyses are included for individual servings and total recipes.

This review is from: The Cleveland Clinic Foundation Creative Cooking for Renal Diets (Paperback)

I am very happy with this cookbook...my husband has an inherited kidney disease and my son has inherited potential cholesterol and heart problems from hsi fahter's family...I have tried unsuccessfully to create meals that are healthy and appetizing and finally this book has managed to help me meal plan for us all...and since we are a family of 3, we will have meals to freeze or take to lunch the next day...I would recommend this book to ANYONE in need of low protein, cholesterol, sodium diets...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Source of Recipes for Renal Diets, September 3, 2007

D. Price (Seabrook, TX) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Cleveland Clinic Foundation Creative Cooking for Renal Diets (Paperback)

My mother was recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and told to reduce her protein, sodium and potassium intakes. The doctor's office provided no sources for preparing meals to meet this criteria, and a visit to a hospital dietitian was not very helpful for renal specific needs. We found this book through our own internet search, and have been very pleased with its contents. My mother recognized many dishes which she has prepared in the past (modified somewhat for the new diet requirements) and was able to relax a bit after the shock of her diagnosis. This book is one of her two favorites that we have acquired. I would highly recommend this book to people who need a renal diet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Cookbook!!, July 13, 2002

Leslie E. Dias (Dale City, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Cleveland Clinic Foundation Creative Cooking for Renal Diets (Paperback)

I have had this book for several years, we have tried just about every recipe in it and they are all great! I get complements all the time on the wonderful food, no one believes that the recipes are from the Renal cookbook.
My grandchildren especially love the spaghetti sauce.
