[QUOTE="tubolard, post: 65699, member: 9741"] Kegs, As I understand it eggs are a rich source of protein, after your body uses the protein in the foods you eat, a waste product called urea is made and if you have lost kidney function you may not be able to get rid of the urea properly. Whilst protein is an essential element of any diet it might be advisable to watch the protein content of your diet so that a build up of urea does not occur. If there are any low carb dieters with kidney problems out there they will be able to help you better than I can. From the information you have given us my suggestion would be to ask for a referral to a dietitian stressing that your goal is better BG control. Regards, Tubs. [/QUOTE]
