Your diet plays an important role after a kidney transplant. Maintaining an ideal diet is important in keeping a healthy weight and exercising regularly. It will also help in preventing high blood pressure, blood sugar, and excessive weight gain. After a transplant, you should follow a diet which is low in salt and fibre. The ideal diet should contain fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats, reduced-fat dairy products, whole grains, and lots of fluids. It’s also important to be careful while handling foods like washing hands before touching any food items, reducing eating outside, and avoiding high-risk foods that can cause infection.
