Here is an email I received today from McCann Erickson:
I thought you and your readers might be interested in some recent work carried out by TV chef Lawrence Keogh from BBC One’s Saturday Kitchen.
Lawrence had to have a kidney transplant at the age of 35, and as a result is now limited to what foods he can consume i.e. minimal amounts of salt, sugar and fat. On the back of this he developed a cookbook especially tailored for people who have or have had problems with their kidneys. The book contains 16 recipes and is available free of charge from renal dieticians and is designed to help people cook meals that are still exciting and flavourful but move away from the quite often dull low phosphate diets that many sufferers have to contend with.
Our aim is to get as many sufferers of CKD that we can to know about the book with the hope of being able to change their lives in some way. I have attached a PDF file of the cookbook ‘Rediscovering Foods and Flavours’ that that should be OK to upload to your blog to allow people to view the recipes without having to make an appointment with their dietician to get a copy of the book. Or you could email it to anyone that would like a copy?
One in 10 people will develop CKD in their lifetimes in the UK alone but with the help of the cookbook we hope that their lives won’t be changed too much.
To get your free copy of the cookbook, simply leave a comment below with your email address. I won’t publish your comment but will email your download to you as soon as I get your request.
