Pineapple is a delicious and kidney-friendly fruit choice for those with kidney disease. It is low in potassium, making it a suitable option for individuals who need to manage their potassium levels.

In addition to its low potassium content, pineapple is rich in vitamins C and A, which support immune system function and overall health. Pineapple also contains bromelain, a unique enzyme that has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits.

Pineapple can be enjoyed fresh, canned, or as a juice. However, when choosing canned or juiced varieties, make sure to select those without added sugars. By incorporating pineapple into your diet, you can enjoy a sweet treat while supporting kidney health. (12)
