Made for life on dialysis

KidneyPal

The kidney diet app that finally fits your day

On dialysis, every meal turns into math. How much fluid is that? Will this push my potassium up? Is there hidden phosphorus in here? KidneyPal does the math for you — so you can eat with confidence and stop guessing what's safe.

Log any meal in seconds — no weighing, no Googling

Take a photo of your plate. Scan a barcode. Snap a nutrition label. Or just describe what you ate by voice or text. KidneyPal instantly shows the four nutrients that matter most — sodium, potassium, phosphorus, protein — plus a clear green / yellow / red rating for how it fits your kidney diet.

Stay under your fluid limit between treatments

Every glass of water, cup of coffee, bowl of soup, and piece of ice gets counted. The daily fluid tracker shows exactly how much you have left — so you arrive at your next treatment at your dry weight instead of regretting that extra drink.

Bring a real report to your clinic

Every week, KidneyPal builds a clean one-page summary of what you ate, where you stood on each nutrient, and how well you managed your fluid. Hand it to your dietitian or nephrologist — instead of trying to remember last Tuesday.

Your daily diary — fluid, nutrients, and progress at a glance
