Description

A one-page 5-day meal plan for Stage 3 CKD patients who are overwhelmed by complex recipe formats. Every meal component is spelled out directly on the page - no cross-referencing required. Potassium is higher than Stage 4, making this best suited for Stage 3 patients before tighter restrictions are needed.

Details
  • Nutritional targets - 1500–1600 kcal, ~40g protein, 2300–3000mg potassium daily
  • 5 full days of meals - every component listed directly, with exact portions (e.g., 2 slices GF bread + 2 Tbsp sunflower seed butter + ¼ cup sliced strawberries)
  • 6 additional simple recipes - for meals requiring slightly more preparation like salads, dressings, and soup
  • 3 Energy Booster Recipes - extra calories without added protein for patients needing more kcal
  • No shopping list - intentionally stripped down to keep the plan as simple and unintimidating as possible
RD Tip

The one-page format is the key differentiator here - patients who feel overwhelmed by traditional meal plans respond much better when everything they need to know is right in front of them. Point out that the potassium is higher than Stage 4 and that this is intentional for Stage 3, so patients don't worry unnecessarily.
