ckd stage 3 & beets

[2behealthy]

I was recently diagnosed with CKD (stage 3). I just had an ultra sound done - which showed that I have bilateral small kidneys; and a lot of lab work done. I am still waiting on the results from those tests. My eGFR is 51, the BUN/CREATININE ration is 24; Urea Nirtogen 28; creatinine 1.16. Sodium is 137; potassium 4.0, protein total 6.5 This is from the fasting lab that was done on June 14th.
The doctor said that I could continue to eat the way that I have been; which is mostly raw fruits and veggies, with some egg whites, a little meat (usually chicken and pork once a week for each) and seafood - salmon, tuna, haddock, cod.
I am about to purchase fresh beets to make some pickled beets (some sugar or substitute, apple cider vinegar, and pepper) but am not sure that I am going to be able to continue eating beets (I only have maybe 1 oz of the pickled beets added to my salad when I do have them, which is not every day).
Would anyone happen to know if this will be acceptable. I don't see the nephrologist until the 14th of August.
Thank You.
