I went from stage III kidney failure diagnosis to no signs of kidney failure in 2 years. Now three years later you could never tell I was sick. A low fat whole food plant based diet cured me and I will never look back! 😎
@@xander_k_ mostly whole foods, i avoid most saturated fat and almost all processed refined foods. I mostly follow Dr. Furman's GBOMBS-greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds and nuts on most days with lots of fruits, grains, and veggies to fill in.
Bravo!! Been waiting for a kidney video from y’all. I’ve reversed my diabetes using your book, but I am just now at stage 3 ckd. I am continuing my diabetes reversal plant-based diet but have lowered my protein and no salt, no sugar, no oil and walking. Waiting for new bloodwork to be done in July to see if I have halted or dropped the eGFR or not. I have faith in the WFPB diet with no oil, no sugar, no salt and will continue it the rest of my life. I also have CHF that I am battling as well. Thank you for your book and huge efforts to let us all know these lifestyle diseases can be stopped and reversed!!♥️
That is awesome to here Kathy! We are so glad you have had tremendous progress and use with Mastering Diabetes! Let us know if you have ever have any questions!😊👍🏻
How in the world does a person consume 50-100 g of fiber a day? I am 70, female, have long-time T2D, and am in early CKD. I’ve started WFPB diet, but so far struggle to reach even 40 g daily. Thanks for any help.
Excellent video! Being a nephrology nurse and seeing 90% of my patients with diabetes and other diseases it’s so important to prevent these diseases! Thanks for educating !!!
This is the video I was looking for. I am worried about what is going on right now, but it's nice to know I'm doing everything possible to help. Before this video, all the advice was contradicting itself.
… I guess I have to be the one to tell ya- but if THIS video isn’t saying what the others you’d watched say- then THIS video would simply BE ANOTHER PEG- IN- THE- WHEEL- TO ADD TO “YOUR” confusion…
Thanks Cyrus & Robbie. @Kidney Nutrition Plant Based strives to follow all of your recommendations. All I n a customized, simple, non confusing way specifically for kidney patients. Please monitor our efforts and offer recommendations. Thanks 👍
I read your book. It’s an easy and enjoyable book and quite interesting. I plan to read it 1or 2 more times and then use it as a reference. You two are an amazing resource. Thank you!
From what I understood here… Potassium, Phosphorus and Sodium is not an issue as long as it’s from plant based foods. So bananas, and avocados are okay to eat? How about root veggies like potatoes, sweet potatoes and carrots? How about the worry of oxolates from greens?
I got the message here though my target is more on keeping a low LDL, adequate HDL... because one thing I fear is renal failure leading to dialysis... for dialysis signals the end game for me as i don't have the funds necessary for dialysis...
Atherosclerosis - Isn’t this the accumulation of fatty deposits inside the vessels? Arteriosclerosis - “hardening” of the arteries due to chronic and increased atherosclerosis? Like comparing diverticulosis and diverticulitis - the first being the out pouching, the second the actual inflammation of… So isn’t there a difference between athero and arterio sclerosis? Just trying to organize these terms and meanings in my understanding. Thank you for this channel!!!!
Random question: what's your take on the mono-cleanse? I am considering doing a banana or potato based one for a week or so, mainly to heal my digestion, but prefer to have another opinion before proceeding!
More than 85 years of evidence-based research shows that eating low-fat, plant-based, whole-foods are the most effective approach to reversing insulin resistance many chronic diseases simultaneously.
My doctors behave as if they wouldnt mind a new dialysis patient, they want to put in a pool at the beach house this summer. They definately give me an indifferent, creepy, destined to die without our help vibe. But we're Australians, known c**ts
ESRD ? What can someone do once they are on this stage and they are also a type 2 diabetic? I've heard of people reversing this dependency on the machine but what can people do to reverse this from that stage... I'm asking this for someone I know. I've told this person eating better would make some difference.. any suggestions?
There is no reason to totally eliminate salt. Most days I don't have any but I can't go weeks or months without it. Not safe, at least for me it's not. Up to 2 or 3 grams of sodium a day is not too much
The minimun amount of sodium is 500 mg, but you got to have in mind that the sodium in Whole foods is regulated by the potasium in the same food, the problems comes when we add sodium, potasium , fosforus etc, to our foods, or the opposite, if we take out all the sodium like on purified water we can be on a déficit and get bradicardias/tachicardias, low blood pressure etc , all kind of problems
My kidney function dropped from the mid 70's down to 47, I am scared I switched to a whole foods plant based diet, My protein intake is not that high, i eat peas, chick peas and centre my meals around potatoes and beans etc, I do not consume dairy, i eat bran flakes and soya milk and fruit in the morning Baked potatoes and beans or rice and beans in the afternoon And a vegetable based dish with chapati or rice in the evening. I only drink water, but have 1 coffee or tea with soya milk Can this be reversed. (i also have type 2 diabetes this is in ok control). I am hoping my switch to this lifestyle will reverse all of this. I used to drink a lot of diet cola, which is what i suspect may have caused this for me.
I'm very confused. Plant based spikes my blood sugar so I have to take my insulin. And I have low hemoglobin , red blood count, iron etc. Can I do plant based but still use a grass fed supplement? I feel so much better on protein and organ supplements. I most likely have stage 3. Wouldn't an a1c spike be dangerous? I cant eat most fruit. No grains ( I'm mostly paleo and they do not sit well with me) protein from meat is one of few foods that doesn't hurt my stomach. If I do plant based I'll be stuck with limited veggies as most oxalate hurts etc. Higher blood sugar at least temporarily. So is it best to use insulin and eat plant based anyway? Right now im clean low carb . So low to no insulin. I cant keep flip flopping.
Stop metformin if you are taking it. It suppresses mitochondrial functions. C-peptide which is cosecreted with insulin is required for maintaining kidney health. Hyperinsulinemia, however, hurts the kidneys causing salt (sodium) retention that increases blood pressure. The hypertension in turn damaged the kidneys. We need to stay in the Goldilocks zone of everything.
I don't understand because I have high potassium 5.7 currently they want me to take a binder and to eat low potassium but you are saying to increase my potassium intake? I'm on a whole food plant based diet was eating potatoes dates bananas fruits and so on and had a potassium of 6.0 so what should I do??

Hi,How can I get the book
Born with 1 kidney. Gfr between 44 very's to 50 back and forth Dr put me on lasorton I stopped taking it but he said I need it
Is sugar alcohol damage kidneys? Its an ingredient in a lot of sugar free products
Totally different from what my Drs are recommending.
More than 85 years of evidence-based research shows that eating low-fat, plant-based, whole-foods are the most effective approach to reversing insulin resistance many chronic diseases simultaneously.
ask your doctors for some research to back up their claims. if they can't give you an article then they are just misinformed
My doctors behave as if they wouldnt mind a new dialysis patient, they want to put in a pool at the beach house this summer. They definately give me an indifferent, creepy, destined to die without our help vibe. But we're Australians, known c**ts
ESRD ? What can someone do once they are on this stage and they are also a type 2 diabetic? I've heard of people reversing this dependency on the machine but what can people do to reverse this from that stage... I'm asking this for someone I know. I've told this person eating better would make some difference.. any suggestions?
Plant based if possible, but low protein high vegetable diet and exercise
Thanks for this video.
How about salt ? Do you promote like Dr Goodhamer to eliminate added salt from our diet ?
There is no reason to totally eliminate salt. Most days I don't have any but I can't go weeks or months without it. Not safe, at least for me it's not. Up to 2 or 3 grams of sodium a day is not too much
In all our recipes we don't use salt Felix but if you use, please follow the CDC recommendation to consume less than 2,300 mg. 🌱
The minimun amount of sodium is 500 mg, but you got to have in mind that the sodium in Whole foods is regulated by the potasium in the same food, the problems comes when we add sodium, potasium , fosforus etc, to our foods, or the opposite, if we take out all the sodium like on purified water we can be on a déficit and get bradicardias/tachicardias, low blood pressure etc , all kind of problems
My kidney function dropped from the mid 70's down to 47, I am scared I switched to a whole foods plant based diet,
My protein intake is not that high, i eat peas, chick peas and centre my meals around potatoes and beans etc, I do not consume dairy, i eat bran flakes and soya milk and fruit in the morning
Baked potatoes and beans or rice and beans in the afternoon
And a vegetable based dish with chapati or rice in the evening.
I only drink water, but have 1 coffee or tea with soya milk
Can this be reversed. (i also have type 2 diabetes this is in ok control).
I am hoping my switch to this lifestyle will reverse all of this. I used to drink a lot of diet cola, which is what i suspect may have caused this for me.

Okay but what about the effects these foods have on diabetes? I get reducing protein but all those other foods spike blood sugar.
I don't understand because I have high potassium 5.7 currently they want me to take a binder and to eat low potassium but you are saying to increase my potassium intake? I'm on a whole food plant based diet was eating potatoes dates bananas fruits and so on and had a potassium of 6.0 so what should I do??
are you on a low fat diet too?
@@nirvana328 yes I am I actually had a session with Dr. Klaper and he said it's ok!
Should beans be limited as well since low protein is best?
plant based protien is A-OK
good news for many
Absolutely!😊👍🏻
my egfr is always in the 120's
thats great, means you have perfect kidney function
Alcohol actually heightens my glucose levels
I eat more vegetables than most vegetarians.
You left out polycystic kidney disease.
28 hypertension and recently diagnosed T2 2 months ago. Gfr 73 my creatinine is 1.36
Any protein or blood leakage in ur urine ?
