For IgAN, lean proteins are best:
- Fish: salmon, cod, tilapia (rich in omega-3s)
- Poultry: skinless chicken or turkey breast
- Lean cuts of pork or beef (in moderation)
- Plant proteins: legumes, tofu

Key tips:
- Choose baked/grilled over fried
- Watch portion sizes
- Avoid processed meats
- Consult your doctor about specific protein needs

Always check with your healthcare provider about specific protein amounts, as needs vary based on your kidney function.
