CKD患者の食事療法にむけた市販弁当の栄養価の検討について

In dialysis patients, it is essence to take nutrient amounts approximately such as energy, protein, salt, water, phosphorus, and potassium. However, since many dialysis patients are elderly and difficult to cook at home every day, they often utilize a commercially available lunch box. So, we aimed this study to estimate nutritional value from the nutritional label, and to measure total phosphorus content in 5 types of lunch box. We found that these lunch boxes contained almost within the recommended amount of potassium and phosphorous, while they contained excess energy, protein and salt amounts. So, when dialysis patients utilize commercially available lunch boxes, they should pay attention especially to a risk of excess dietary salt intake
