Sodium: All of our recipes are low in sodium because it is hard on kidneys and raises blood pressure. Most people should limit sodium to 1,500 milligrams per day.

Potassium: If you are on hemodialysis, limit potassium too, to 2,000 milligrams per day. If you are on peritoneal dialysis or short daily dialysis, limit potassium to 3,500 milligrams per day.

Phosphorus: If you are on dialysis, limit phosphorus to about 1,000 milligrams per day.

Protein: If you are not on dialysis but have kidney disease, you might benefit from a diet lower in protein. Check with a kidney doctor or dietitian for guidelines.

Ingredients

Based on 12 servings per recipe.

4 cups water
2 cups sugar
zest of 3 lemons
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup whipping cream

Preparation

Combine water, sugar and most of the lemon zest in a saucepan.
Heat to a simmer: cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in remaining zest and lemon juice.
Refrigerate until cold.
Whisk the cream into the mixture.
Freeze in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s directions.

If you do not have an ice-cream maker:

Combine water, sugar and most of the lemon zest in a saucepan.
Heat to a simmer: cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in remaining zest and lemon juice.
To Still freeze, put mix in a metal ice cube tray or flat cake pan in the freezer. Cover with foil
When slushy, stir with a fork, working from the front to the back of the tray. This reduces the size of the ice crystals. Do this for 2-3 times.
Move from freezer to refrigerator 20 minutes before serving.
