Dear Jay: The amount of protein he can eat on this diet depends on his weight, so do not attempt this diet on your own. You will also need to test frequently to be sure that the creatinine levels in urine are increasing and the levels in his blood are decreasing. This indicates that the creatinine is being excreted properly. It would be best to approach a dietician for a detailed diet plan. But control of the blood sugar levels is very important and should try avoiding meat all together and skimmed milk should be the option for him.
