Notes from the contributor

  • Fermented foods are easy to digest being a source of good bacteria.
  • Suitable for non-dialysis, dialysis and post-transplant patients.
  • Sago/Sabudana can increase sugar levels, so diabetics must avoid.
  • Sabudana may cause constipation as it is a bowel binder. Avoid if facing constipation — chronic constipation causes hyperkalemia.
