   Thank you for all the information of living with kidney disease.
   I noticed you advise to read food labels and to eat herbs/spices that don’t include salt – such as onion powder not onion salt. I have been advised lately by an Australian herb company that food laws do not require companies to list if they have used salt in the drying/processing of herbs/spices which means the food label is not useful to those who have kidney disease .

   I have type 1 Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis and are interested if you have any recipes which may help.
   Thanks
