Dialysis is a treatment for kidney failure that removes waste and extra fluid from the blood, using a filter. In peritoneal dialysis (PD), the filter is the lining of the abdomen, called the peritoneum. In hemodialysis (HD), the filter is a plastic tube filled with millions of hollow fibers, called a dialyzer.
Corn is a grain not a vegetable, no matter what form it is in. It also is not very nutritious compared to vegetables and many other foods. While I do enjoy an ear of corn or an occasional bowl of popcorn, it is a treat, not something to rely on for daily consumption.ardly surprising seeing as we have been fed a lot of garbage about nutrition over the last fifty years. Most of the studies have been funded by the CORN industry so it comes as no surprise that they are now trying to tell us that it is a SUPERFOOD.
To put it in perspective, 1 ear of corn on the cob has 60 calories and 2.3 grams of sugar compared to 1 cup of pineapple which has 80 calories and 16 grams of sugar. Fresh corn can be a healthy part of a meal as long as it isnât slathered in butter and salt. 3. Corn is to blame for the obesity epidemic. Corn has been a nutritionally critical food staple for thousands of years. Our Mayan and South American ancestors have been using corn for centuries â long before the obesity epidemic was even remotely conceivable. Demonizing corn does not solve the problem.
