Low-protein diet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A low-protein diet is a diet in which people reduce their intake of protein. A low-protein diet is often prescribed to people with kidney or liver disease.
A low-protein diet would include foods such as vegetables, starches such as bread, cereals, and pasta. For even less protein the best food would be fruits, fats and sugars. Foods to avoid would be any animal byproduct such as meats, eggs, fish, poultry, milk, yogurt, cheese, and even peanut butter.
Protein values for most common foods can be found at low-protein.org.
