RenalShield is educational software. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, prevent disease, prescribe a diet, choose a dialysis plan, or replace a clinician or renal dietitian.
Do not use RenalShield to change medications, binders, supplements, fluids, potassium, phosphorus, sodium, protein targets, dialysis schedules, or emergency decisions.
Kidney and dialysis nutrition needs vary by diagnosis, labs, residual kidney function, urine output, dialysis schedule, medications, and care-team instructions.
Food and ingredient flags are screening cues, not a final answer about whether a food is safe for a specific person.
If you have urgent symptoms or a medical emergency, contact emergency services or your clinical team. Do not wait for app feedback.
