The difference in yolk color has to do with the diet of the birds. If you get pasture raised chicken eggs, they are orange. That's because they don't eat just grain, they eat grass seeds and grasses, bugs, etc., a more natural diet, not dictated by man. They are healthier!
And the fact that over 50% of the FDA's funding comes from big pharma! Why do you think they ban the likes of plant medicine and cannabis? The food pyramid is upside down. Just do the opposite to what they suggest!
this has been going on since WW2 and the 70s was the last time we didn't eat poison. Food Issues of the US Government, Big Corporations of GMO crap foods, Big Pharma, and Doctors who are fully asleep ALL CONTRIBUTED TO THE LIES THEY TOLD US.

I did intermittent fasting , didn't eat animal protein, I am drinking drank lots of water, drink baking soda with lemon 3x a day, lots of veggies and chew my food really good, I take my time to eat. Currently my protein is setting at 0.70.

If you can get farm fresh eggs, eat those. If you haven't ever had them, you wouldn't believe how different they are from the supermarket eggs. IMO the only reason to avoid the yolk is if you are cutting calories. Keep in mind that most of the nutrition is in the yolk.
We rent an apartment every time we go to Paris. Eggs are brought in daily, not refrigerated in stores. Lucious with deep orange yolks. Most restaurants do not use salad dressing, but a whole raw egg on top…delish.
confusing always ate eggs though As a child didn,t like yolks except when scrambled. children do not understand nutrition it should be taught in school .
The Dr conceded that it wasn't clear if it was the eggs or other breakfast foods causing the problem and he pinned it on bacon then red meat. But how about the hash browns 2 slices of toast orange juice 3 coca cola's the Reese cups and 3 servings of pasta for dinner.
I live in Sri Lanka and our food is mostly vegetarian (I have been a vegetarian since 1972). Your presentations have been very helpful to me as I have a kidney problem (I am a diabetic). I have been asked by my Nephrologist to be careful when eating since I shouldn't take in too much potassium and phosphorous.
If you’re on medication for diabetes, that could be destroying your kidneys…..kidney detox with juices….and lemon-cucumber water..sometimes help, depending on how severe your disease has progressed….
Plant-based diets come with their own challenges: Anti-nutrients. Examples include: Glucosinolates/goitrogens can prevent the absorption of iodine, which may then interfere with thyroid function. Lectins in legumes, whole grains-can interfere with the absorption of calcium, iron, phosphorus, and zinc. Oxalates can bind to calcium and prevent it from being absorbed. Phytates (phytic acid) can decrease the absorption of iron, zinc, magnesium, and calcium. Saponins can interfere with normal nutrient absorption. Tannins can decrease iron absorption. It makes it very difficult, to not only know, what to eat, but how much and when to eat it. And, what can be combined with what! I've decided, at this point in my life, to eat a balanced diet and stay away from processed and sugar-laden items.
I think I just give up. After watching this and many other podcasts on what is good and what is bad for us and what interacts with what and like you mentioned the iron and tannin and so on, it is just getting pathetic. I think a good start would be to stay away from processed foods, sugars, and seed oils as much as possible and use everything else in moderation. That way you are not putting all your money in one account should the worst happen. I think that in short term each diet might be beneficial if that's what ppl decide to do but long term might not be sustainable. Good to do own bloodwork at least to check for basic levels but that's about it. Ppl will get sick by stressing out what they can and cannot eat.

I was eating three egg whites almost daily, fried in olive oil with fried onions and bell pepper and some fajita seasoning...sometimes on toast, sometimes on a salad. But in that time my kidney function jumped 25 points from and EGFR of 59 to an EGFR of 84. My creatinine went from 1.1 to .9. This was in a 6 month period. The next 6 months (after I got the all clear) I slacked up and ate more red meat...my cholesterol went high and my EGFR dropped to 73. So I am going back to my old way of eating that included eggs and cheese (not the highly processed stuff...real cheese) but I limited milk to almond milk unsweetened.
Hello, I have: CKD-3b, Diabetes Type-2, Insulin dependent, hypertension, and fairly overweight in my female gender as I am 71 years old. I strongly am curious about Mediterranean diet, vegetarian diet, and vegan diet. I drink almond milk, fresh filtered water, herbal teas and decaffeinated Japanese green teas only. I don’t drink any coffees, caffeinated teas, cow’s milk, wines, and any alcohol beverages but I don’t smoke nor weeds but not vaping however I don’t use any of illegal drugs. Only I stay away from harm’s ways under peer pressure. In a fact, I am lactose intolerant in my strong paternal side of my strong Southern Italian ancestral lineage with Sephardic Jewish ancestry. At honestly, I am the highly intelligent, well- educated Gallaudet University graduate with B.A. in double-majors of Biology and Chemistry in Class of 1981, then I originally came from the strong, conservative, intellectual, well-educated and college educated Italian American middle class family with privileges- D’Auria Family on American soil. Well I have genetic deafness (COX-26 as recessive gene) then I am Bi-Lingual (ASL [ American Sign Language]-English) in proficiency. Still I continue to research on abut vegan, vegetarian, and vegetarian diets in online in my searches. I know that Standard American diet as the Western diet are NOT Healthy in notice. I agree so there. Christa D’Auria
I love eating eggs and I eat 4 eggs every day and I feel fine. Doctors told me not to eat eggs or use salt because I had high blood pressure and heart problems. Now I salt to tase. Doctors should learn that everybody is different and need different advice. In my case it was not the salt or eggs but bread and bread rolls. I have no health issue anymore.
You are better educated than these two presenters. Eggs are definitely good, my mother is 90 years. I am 51 and I am eating 7 to 10 eggs a day if I am not eating pork or beef. I have reversed type 2 diabetes and off all the medication for diabetes and hypertension. Thanks mainly to unprocessed food. Mainly animal based. I am working in nephrology clinic, and I have seen patients who switched to plant based diet reduced the deterioration of markers for CKD. But at the same time their overall general health deteriorate at a higher rate. Some patients become so weak they were not fit enough for Dialysis let alone kidney transplant.
Eggs are a prime source of nutrition. Especially if you eat a plant-based diet. If you avoid processed foods and soda, that's the first thing you can do for your body. Second, never use sugar. Only fruit occasionally, but beware of fructose. Use only virgin olive oil with high polyphenol content along with long chain EFA omega 3 fatty acids. Short chain plant based omega 3 is also good as it can compete with the precursor of sc EFA omega 6. In such a diet, you can safely consume eggs daily.❤
I had a GFR of 38 two yrs ago, I went whole foods plant based and it went to over 60. I then went to work at a place that feeds us and of course meat,meat , cheese and meat. Usually fried. My GFR is now 49. I am back to whole foods plant based and praying it comes back up to over 60. This doctor and dietician are right about this diet. I wish I had stuck with it instead of being swade to eat what I now know to be posion.
@@user-ov4wr5yu4r no foam in my urine, no eggs, no dairy. Whole foods plant based. Things like beans and rice, leafy greens and other fresh or frozen veggies.
@@yaz5562 a whole foods plant based Vegan diet, no animal products, no meat, no dairy, no eggs. And cut bread drastically maybe once every two or three months I'd have a roll or piece of bread. No sodas, no baked goods, no candy.
I mean my grandpa lived to be 90. He eat lots of meat, bacon, eggs, dairy and was diabetic but had no renal or eyesight problems beyond the myopathy he had all his life. He refused to drink water. Always diet 7up, coffee, tea, milk, buttermilk. He only died, because he fell and hit his head. He'd probably still be alive. He was a tough old war hero! :P I think he lived so long because he quit smoking back when it was 50 cents a pack, because "It got too expensive." He also rarely drank alcohol. Then take my 60-year-old dad who has smoked since he was 16, has diabetes, eats the same kinda stuff as grandpa (maybe a bit better variety), drinks more water, but he's getting cataracts and diabetic retinopathy. My dad drank like a fish from his youth up until he was about 50.
At 65 I started having prostrate problems, I read if you stop eating all dairy and eat plant based my problems would go away. So I did and my PSA went down and my flow returned to normal. I'm 76 now and I'm on no medication at all and still having sex. The real reasons for two sides to the studies is it's ALL ABOUT THE MONEY and bias to who paid for the study
sir....I am also having prostate problems....can you pls advise me what you eat in plant based diet...do you eat white rice....as I am in India and white rice is our main food....and how long it took you to regain normal flow ...after adopting plants diet...
@@skanwal6971 I follow the starch solution, Dr John McDougall...No meat, no oil. How long? Don't remember exactly, maybe up to a month, swelling has to go down. Rice and potato's are good. I also eat within a 6 hour period, 2 meals each day. I'm 77 now still no problem. Stay away from doctors if possible.
I am CKD stage 4. I started a 100% plant-based diet two years ago. I feel better than I have felt for many, many years. My potassium and phosphorus are both comfortably within normal. I have lost 20 kilos in weight (deliberately), which I do not think I would have managed (I am now 69 years old) before my change of diet. The token renal dietary advice which I received from my hospital was laughable. My decision to change diet was in spite of, rather than on the basis of this advice. I do not regret going vegan.
Please let me know what you were eating in general to improve your numbers as I have CKD stage 4 Gfr 20 and scared I don’t want dialysis of transplant I want to follow a good diet ! Please help and Tku
@@samirahage3533 I am desperate too. I don't eat meat, fish or dairy (I used to live on cheese). I don't eat potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnips, rice or pasta . I eat unlimited vegetables and salads of all other types. I eat nuts and blueberries and bananas. I bake salt-free wholemeal wheat and rye sourdough bread (as long as I can toast it I am happy. After a while ordinary bread tastes horribly salty). I make wholemeal wheat wraps without salt or oil but with all sorts of herbs and spices. Absolutely no processed food. I don't drink beer any more because it makes me ravenously hungry. The potassium in vegetables is much less bioavailable than in meat fish and dairy. The phosphorus in vegetables is much less bioavailable than in meat fish and dairy. The potassium and "phos" in processed foods is absorbed 100%. Absolutely no COLA. No sweeteners. No soft drinks (sodas). I am diabetic. My hba1c on the day of my diagnosis was 125 (sky high). It is now in the thirties (normal). I take no diabetes meds (no white bread, potatoes, rice or pasta). I must emphasise that I am not a doctor. I am just scared. I have tried to send two links to VERY IMPORTANT ARTICLES, but I don't know whether they got through. I can't see the links in this conversation. I'll try again later. All the best to you.

@@samirahage3533 I forgot to say that I eat peas, all sorts of beans and some lentils. I soak beans overnight and then pressure cook them (without salt). I do take fish-oil tablets because vegan omega 3 is dreadfully expensive.
Your balanced presentation--with pros, cons, and acknowledgement of unknowns--comes across as *far more* credible than the common type of presentation where a bias is upheld to the point that everything else is demonized. I also appreciate the details you both give to explain pros and cons. For example, egg whites may seem innocent enough except that leucine overload is something to consider. Thank you for presenting such a wonderfully balanced set of information! It's amazing how you take controversial subjects with many unknowns and yet you manage to pull out pieces of relevant, practical information. That is true education for your listeners. What a great channel you have!

it is very confusing. A few years back I had high blood sugar. A1c of 9.5 and I got it down to 5.1 in six months by a diet of high fat high protean very low carbs. I lost 70lbs. I am hesitant to change my diet because it's working for me, but I would rather avoid kidney trouble than treat it. I eat a fair amount of red meat. And I use a fair amount of salt. Vegan diets don't work for me because I simply won't stay on them. I get hungry on them. Hunger is my enemy. I'm trying to tweak my diet to be better for my kidneys without messing everything else up.
Thank you again for the information as it really does help me make a choice on what I buy. I have learned to make egg salad with 2 egg whites to one yolk. I make enough for several sandwiches and it is so much better with less yolk. Have to read labels when I buy salad dressing etc and haven't found the best one yet. Even try mixing salad dressing and some french dressing I found that is much lower in salt. Looking forward to the next video.
Eat the yolk. Here’s an easy way to make it. Crack about 5 or 6 eggs in a microwaveable bowl. Barely mix. Microwave for about 3 minutes. Let cool. Chop up with a fork and add mayo, mustard, relish or pickles and juice. Voila. No peeling.
Hi Joan, I would like to give you my salad dressing recipe. A good organic olive oil, organic Balsamic vinegar, organic fresh garlic squashed and chopped fine, organic pepper, and a small pinch of salt. Some folks add mustard, but look out for the salt content. All proportions are personal. I like oil and balsamic to be almost equal and a good “dose” of garlic. I never get salad dressing at the store. Hope this helps you!
Your recommendations for dairy are all high oxalate. Please discuss oxalates as it pertains to the kidneys, heart and other organs. Is the Calcium or phosphorus more of a concern in dairy products. What tests are available to check oxalates levels in the blood or urine?
Hello! You can have urine oxalate levels checked...We have two episodes on oxalates that you can check out! Also, would recommend www.thekidneydietitian.org for a lot more info on oxalates!
I eat every day 2 organic eggs and my cholesterol is down and Macula degeneration and Psoriasis are gone..

FYI...I know it's been 7 months since this was posted but eggs are no longer cheap. Where I live, 5 dozen eggs are over 22.00 dollars, so this might be a deterrent not to eat eggs because it is for me.
The US is a ripoff. Buy yourself some chickens and feed them your food scraps along with their general food. You will bring the price down by 50% or more and know what the chickens are being fed
Thank you for the info. The next time you talk about dairy could you make clear about all dairy like goat cheese or other animal products not just cows. Or even soy cheese. Thank you.
I did NOT find anything confusing about anything said by either the doctor or the nutritionist. There was just a great deal of information given. Excellent video. And thank you very much. So many options can be confusing if a person isn’t familiar with the terms, also because of the diversity and making choices (as everything in this area has so many + and - ‘s) the average lay person can have their head spinning. Point being Do not be afraid to make the best choices for yourself that you can, try it out and see how it works for you and if it doesn’t try an alternative choice. Final thought, try reading all about all suggested good for you foods and their nutritional aspects. It’s a fun thing to do when you know that what you are reading is of serious value and help to the body you are housed it. Good luck and Happy Voyage in actually Helping Your Own Body.🙏🏼🤗👋

Wish I would've found you guys a long time ago. Very well explained and evidence based. Like Zoe, one of my favorites though I don't suffer from kidney disease as far as I know.
The nutritionist is is right on the money about vegan cheese. Each slice is a salt shaker full of sodium, it is very expensive, and tastes like recycled cardboard. Swiss cheese is usually the lowest in sodium and potassium.
Could you please have a look at something I've been studying research about? It's called diosmin. A brand name equivalent is Daflon 500 with hesperidine. CI in people on blood thinners because of hesperidine. However, diosmine has been showing hepatoprotective attributes as well as well documented reversal of chronic venal insufficiency.
Great, very properly presented information as always! What is the research for dairy products from sheep or goat milk, like Feta cheese and Greek style yogurt, both staples of the Mediterranean diet? Thank you so much!
Have not found a milk substitute that doesn’t have careegean, or inflammatory oil. Poison for celiacs. Have reverted to grass fed organic whole milk 🥛 and feel loads better.
Glad you are feeling a lot better! There are several brands that have plant milks without additives. Elmhurst, Simply Almond, Trader Joe's has a soy milk. And making your own is always an option too if you want!

Only I stay away from harm’s ways under peer pressure. In a fact, I am lactose intolerant in my strong paternal side of my strong Southern Italian ancestral lineage with Sephardic Jewish ancestry. At honestly, I am the highly intelligent, well- educated Gallaudet University graduate with B.A. in double-majors of Biology and Chemistry in Class of 1981, then I originally came from the strong, conservative, intellectual, well-educated and college educated Italian American middle class family with privileges- D’Auria Family on American soil. Well I have genetic deafness (COX-26 as recessive gene) then I am Bi-Lingual (ASL [ American Sign Language]-English) in proficiency. Still I continue to research on abut vegan, vegetarian, and vegetarian diets in online in my searches. I know that Standard American diet as the Western diet are NOT Healthy in notice. I agree so there. Christa D’Auria
Basically, for early stage damages antioxidants doing the trick it seems.
I love eating eggs and I eat 4 eggs every day and I feel fine. Doctors told me not to eat eggs or use salt because I had high blood pressure and heart problems. Now I salt to tase. Doctors should learn that everybody is different and need different advice. In my case it was not the salt or eggs but bread and bread rolls. I have no health issue anymore.
Amen 🙏
You are better educated than these two presenters.
Eggs are definitely good, my mother is 90 years. I am 51 and I am eating 7 to 10 eggs a day if I am not eating pork or beef.
I have reversed type 2 diabetes and off all the medication for diabetes and hypertension.
Thanks mainly to unprocessed food. Mainly animal based.
I am working in nephrology clinic, and I have seen patients who switched to plant based diet reduced the deterioration of markers for CKD. But at the same time their overall general health deteriorate at a higher rate.
Some patients become so weak they were not fit enough for Dialysis let alone kidney transplant.

Thanks for listening!
God bless you Dr. Hashmi for addressing cows milk issue.
Eggs are a prime source of nutrition. Especially if you eat a plant-based diet. If you avoid processed foods and soda, that's the first thing you can do for your body. Second, never use sugar. Only fruit occasionally, but beware of fructose. Use only virgin olive oil with high polyphenol content along with long chain EFA omega 3 fatty acids. Short chain plant based omega 3 is also good as it can compete with the precursor of sc EFA omega 6. In such a diet, you can safely consume eggs daily.❤
Please cite the studies that support your assertions. Thanks.
I had a GFR of 38 two yrs ago, I went whole foods plant based and it went to over 60. I then went to work at a place that feeds us and of course meat,meat , cheese and meat. Usually fried. My GFR is now 49. I am back to whole foods plant based and praying it comes back up to over 60. This doctor and dietician are right about this diet. I wish I had stuck with it instead of being swade to eat what I now know to be posion.
@@user-ov4wr5yu4r no foam in my urine, no eggs, no dairy. Whole foods plant based. Things like beans and rice, leafy greens and other fresh or frozen veggies.
Please explain what did you eat? In details which made your GFR up to more than 60. Thanks
@@yaz5562 a whole foods plant based Vegan diet, no animal products, no meat, no dairy, no eggs. And cut bread drastically maybe once every two or three months I'd have a roll or piece of bread. No sodas, no baked goods, no candy.
@@van3363 what about lugoms? Can you eat it? Rice and burgul? Semolina?
@@yaz5562 absolutely, I eat rice, beans, legumes. I just don't eat animals or animal products and I stay away from processed foods and refined sugars.
I mean my grandpa lived to be 90. He eat lots of meat, bacon, eggs, dairy and was diabetic but had no renal or eyesight problems beyond the myopathy he had all his life. He refused to drink water. Always diet 7up, coffee, tea, milk, buttermilk. He only died, because he fell and hit his head. He'd probably still be alive. He was a tough old war hero! :P I think he lived so long because he quit smoking back when it was 50 cents a pack, because "It got too expensive." He also rarely drank alcohol.
Then take my 60-year-old dad who has smoked since he was 16, has diabetes, eats the same kinda stuff as grandpa (maybe a bit better variety), drinks more water, but he's getting cataracts and diabetic retinopathy. My dad drank like a fish from his youth up until he was about 50.
Very complex and chaotic answer, doc. Keep it simpler.
Totally agree from Hawaii
I agree. I'm no wiser now than before. The dietician was even more confusing and her mixtures aren't very appealing😢
At 65 I started having prostrate problems, I read if you stop eating all dairy and eat plant based my problems would go away. So I did and my PSA went down and my flow returned to normal. I'm 76 now and I'm on no medication at all and still having sex. The real reasons for two sides to the studies is it's ALL ABOUT THE MONEY and bias to who paid for the study
sir....I am also having prostate problems....can you pls advise me what you eat in plant based diet...do you eat white rice....as I am in India and white rice is our main food....and how long it took you to regain normal flow ...after adopting plants diet...
@@skanwal6971 I follow the starch solution, Dr John McDougall...No meat, no oil. How long? Don't remember exactly, maybe up to a month, swelling has to go down. Rice and potato's are good. I also eat within a 6 hour period, 2 meals each day. I'm 77 now still no problem. Stay away from doctors if possible.
PSA and flow are only half the picture.
Does your wife know about the sex?
Well done. Congratulations
Thank you for your great presentation. It is a very fair presentation on both plant base and animal base food. You both are a blessing to himanity.
Our pleasure! We are happy you are able to learn from our episodes!
Is mushrooms good for people who have protein in the urine to eat
Yes mushrooms are essential. Lions mane, shitake, maitake, and mang more.
Wow! Got it. Thank you Dr. Hashmi & Michelle.
I am CKD stage 4. I started a 100% plant-based diet two years ago. I feel better than I have felt for many, many years. My potassium and phosphorus are both comfortably within normal. I have lost 20 kilos in weight (deliberately), which I do not think I would have managed (I am now 69 years old) before my change of diet. The token renal dietary advice which I received from my hospital was laughable. My decision to change diet was in spite of, rather than on the basis of this advice. I do not regret going vegan.
So happy to hear that you have made these changes on your own and have seen such great results! Keep it up :)
Please let me know what you were eating in general to improve your numbers as I have CKD stage 4 Gfr 20 and scared I don’t want dialysis of transplant I want to follow a good diet ! Please help and Tku
@@samirahage3533
I am desperate too. I don't eat meat, fish or dairy (I used to live on cheese). I don't eat potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnips, rice or pasta . I eat unlimited vegetables and salads of all other types. I eat nuts and blueberries and bananas. I bake salt-free wholemeal wheat and rye sourdough bread (as long as I can toast it I am happy. After a while ordinary bread tastes horribly salty). I make wholemeal wheat wraps without salt or oil but with all sorts of herbs and spices. Absolutely no processed food. I don't drink beer any more because it makes me ravenously hungry. The potassium in vegetables is much less bioavailable than in meat fish and dairy. The phosphorus in vegetables is much less bioavailable than in meat fish and dairy. The potassium and "phos" in processed foods is absorbed 100%. Absolutely no COLA. No sweeteners. No soft drinks (sodas). I am diabetic. My hba1c on the day of my diagnosis was 125 (sky high). It is now in the thirties (normal). I take no diabetes meds (no white bread, potatoes, rice or pasta).
I must emphasise that I am not a doctor. I am just scared. I have tried to send two links to VERY IMPORTANT ARTICLES, but I don't know whether they got through. I can't see the links in this conversation. I'll try again later. All the best to you.
@@markharris1223 thank you sooo much for all the above info very interesting I am going to try them asap just to avoid dialysis and transplant I hope this will raise my Gfr which is 20 again thank you for your time in replying to me, by the way from where you get your protein ! Is it from grains like beans, lentils or chickpeas ? Do u eat eggs ? or egg white pls clarify I appreciate it, also what do you eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner just briefly I am really sorry bothering you
@@samirahage3533
I forgot to say that I eat peas, all sorts of beans and some lentils. I soak beans overnight and then pressure cook them (without salt). I do take fish-oil tablets because vegan omega 3 is dreadfully expensive.
What about grass-fed beef and particularly bison?
Your balanced presentation--with pros, cons, and acknowledgement of unknowns--comes across as *far more* credible than the common type of presentation where a bias is upheld to the point that everything else is demonized. I also appreciate the details you both give to explain pros and cons. For example, egg whites may seem innocent enough except that leucine overload is something to consider. Thank you for presenting such a wonderfully balanced set of information! It's amazing how you take controversial subjects with many unknowns and yet you manage to pull out pieces of relevant, practical information. That is true education for your listeners. What a great channel you have!

Thanks why do kidney doctors shy away from adding food and nutrition to their kidney appointments.They are leading their patients straight to dialysis.
@@sarathompkins8379 Same here I have PKD (not diabetic PKD is hereditary) 6 years ago. I took it upon myself to go visit a dietician and do research on my own. That was 6 years ago & visited another one 4 months ago.

@@janeslater8004 Thank you !
it is very confusing. A few years back I had high blood sugar. A1c of 9.5 and I got it down to 5.1 in six months by a diet of high fat high protean very low carbs. I lost 70lbs. I am hesitant to change my diet because it's working for me, but I would rather avoid kidney trouble than treat it. I eat a fair amount of red meat. And I use a fair amount of salt. Vegan diets don't work for me because I simply won't stay on them. I get hungry on them. Hunger is my enemy. I'm trying to tweak my diet to be better for my kidneys without messing everything else up.
❤ IvAm Still Confused About Eggs
Thank you again for the information as it really does help me make a choice on what I buy. I have learned to make egg salad with 2 egg whites to one yolk. I make enough for several sandwiches and it is so much better with less yolk. Have to read labels when I buy salad dressing etc and haven't found the best one yet. Even try mixing salad dressing and some french dressing I found that is much lower in salt. Looking forward to the next video.
Eat the yolk. Here’s an easy way to make it. Crack about 5 or 6 eggs in a microwaveable bowl. Barely mix. Microwave for about 3 minutes. Let cool. Chop up with a fork and add mayo, mustard, relish or pickles and juice. Voila. No peeling.
The Yolk is the most nutritious part for you!
Hi Joan, I would like to give you my salad dressing recipe. A good organic olive oil, organic Balsamic vinegar, organic fresh garlic squashed and chopped fine, organic pepper, and a small pinch of salt. Some folks add mustard, but look out for the salt content.
All proportions are personal. I like oil and balsamic to be almost equal and a good “dose” of garlic. I never get salad dressing at the store. Hope this helps you!
A fresh backyard egg doesnt taste or cook like a store bought factory egg. I think the issue with eggs depends on how the thickens are raised. 😊
Thickens 😂
True, in Germany the yolks are orange color, here in grocery store eggs are pale color
and not tasty.
@@ells80 Must be a chicken that got fat and thick.
Thanks Dr. Eggs are a question for me whether to eat or not. Milk and yoghurt are things I can't live without.
So you're going to say you can't live without dead fetal tissue ?? You sound crazy!!
almond milk could be deadly with its high oxalate content
Hallo, Is it true that apple cider vinegar and lemon juice is good for CKD stage 3?
Its good to hear the discussion ...i wish to learn more from both of you...❤
Any research on raw milk from pasture raised cows?
Your recommendations for dairy are all high oxalate. Please discuss oxalates as it pertains to the kidneys, heart and other organs. Is the Calcium or phosphorus more of a concern in dairy products. What tests are available to check oxalates levels in the blood or urine?
Hello! You can have urine oxalate levels checked...We have two episodes on oxalates that you can check out! Also, would recommend www.thekidneydietitian.org for a lot more info on oxalates!
Sounds like I can keep my eggs since my lifestyle earned it. That’s great news!!!!
👍🏿

Could you do a segment on a plant based keto diet? I would certainly appreciate it as I value and trust your opinion
FYI...I know it's been 7 months since this was posted but eggs are no longer cheap. Where I live, 5 dozen eggs are over 22.00 dollars, so this might be a deterrent not to eat eggs because it is for me.
One dozen egg in my town cost $8.00 dollars
Yes, eggs and milk are a luxury for me so this makes it easy to skip out on all if it.
The US is a ripoff. Buy yourself some chickens and feed them your food scraps along with their general food. You will bring the price down by 50% or more and know what the chickens are being fed
It's a disgrace how much they boost the price
Thank you for the info. The next time you talk about dairy could you make clear about all dairy like goat cheese or other animal products not just cows. Or even soy cheese. Thank you.
God bless your good Advice 💒
Thank you for this video.
Talking on plant milk, I use oatmilk unsweetened, what's the uptake on this one please .?
I use coconut milk.
I did NOT find anything confusing about anything said by either the doctor or the nutritionist. There was just a great deal of information given. Excellent video. And thank you very much. So many options can be confusing if a person isn’t familiar with the terms, also because of the diversity and making choices (as everything in this area has so many + and - ‘s) the average lay person can have their head spinning. Point being Do not be afraid to make the best choices for yourself that you can, try it out and see how it works for you and if it doesn’t try an alternative choice. Final thought, try reading all about all suggested good for you foods and their nutritional aspects. It’s a fun thing to do when you know that what you are reading is of serious value and help to the body you are housed it. Good luck and Happy Voyage in actually Helping Your Own Body.🙏🏼🤗👋
We're glad you enjoyed the video! And thank you for sharing your thoughts on making the best choices for yourself and then adjusting as you go. Definitely an important point!
I love progress over perfection. I am going to use it a lot. Thank you for the imformation.

I appreciate the information and common sense approach.
The nutritionist is is right on the money about vegan cheese. Each slice is a salt shaker full of sodium, it is very expensive, and tastes like recycled cardboard. Swiss cheese is usually the lowest in sodium and potassium.
Could you please have a look at something I've been studying research about? It's called diosmin. A brand name equivalent is Daflon 500 with hesperidine. CI in people on blood thinners because of hesperidine. However, diosmine has been showing hepatoprotective attributes as well as well documented reversal of chronic venal insufficiency.

So, I can still enjoy my Sunday morning boiled egg! (From Northern Germany - the Sunday morning boiled egg is tradition). I eat mainly veggies from my garden. Have MCD and am an unlikely candidate, since I have not eaten meat for many years, bake my own bread, am slim and walk every day. I did notice that the proteinuria is considerably less when I eat only plant-based protein and gets worse when I eat cheese (I really like cheese but will remove it from the diet). Shall see how it goes.

Very good analysis. Love the aspect of taking a combined approach rather than things in isolation.
Can u make a video on lectins and oxalates?
We have some videos on oxalates. We can definitely do a video on lectins too though!
