Kidney Health: Eat Moong, Arhar Dal; Avoid High Sodium, Potassium for Better Function
•Kidneys remove toxins and regulate sodium, potassium, and phosphate; early detection of kidney disease is often difficult.
•Kidney patients must monitor sodium, potassium, and phosphorus levels in their diet; high potassium impairs kidney function.
•Moong dal (split yellow lentils) and Arhar dal (split pigeon peas) are ideal for kidney patients due to low potassium/phosphorus and high protein.
•Moong dal aids weight loss, lowers blood sugar by increasing insulin sensitivity, and improves digestion by relieving constipation.
•Moong dal's antioxidants protect against heart disease and cancer, while its potassium, magnesium, and fiber lower high blood pressure and bad cholesterol (LDL).
