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.
Superfood: Quinoa. Often referred to as the supergrain, quinoa (KEEN-wah) is high in fiber and high-quality protein. In fact, it contains more protein than any other grain while also packing in iron and potassium. One half cup of quinoa has 14 grams of protein and 6 grams of fiber. This superfood is classified as a whole grain and is naturally gluten-free. Quinoa is a tiny grain that cooks up like rice and has a mild, nutty flavor and a light, fluffy texture similar to couscous.
