Fantastic video! I'm very thankful I found you. Your videos are concise, straightforward, and make sense. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the kind words, Cyndi. :)
Yes, I have heard of the Dash diet. Thank you so very much for being on TH-cam for all of us that need this information!
Thank you for sharing the why behind it all, it is easier to follow knowing the reason behind everything
You are so welcome!
I have just come across your channel. I found it very interesting and informative.
I am going to watch all of your videos here on TH-cam and will go to your website.
Thank you for all the work that you put into this.
I was diagnosed with CKD stage 3 about 6 months ago and have been trying to find my way around the correct diet.
Thanks and welcome! We hope you find our resources helpful during your kidney health journey. 💚

Greeting from Romania!!!! Thank you for the info!!!!!
Amazingly good video
Yes, I have heard of the DADH DIET. I am currently following the McDougall plant based diet w no sodium or oils.
Have fun with you family!!!
Salamat sa mga tips.
I have heard of the DASH duet. I’m currently following a plant based diet w no sodium or oils.
I eat veggies, fruits, grains no animal products-
I don't think the health community isn't being honest about food herbicides, food additives, or prescription medications causing many many health conditions. Why is it that dialysis centers have grown in many many locations over the last 40 years. I'm a 57 year old woman, and I have never seen the amount of dialysis centers and folks diagnosed wth kidney function failure, people had diabetes and high blood pressure but did not cause kidney failure. Some is of missed, the medical and health community aren't being honest.
Dialysis centers truly are becoming a more common health clinic to see. There are over 37 million people in the US alone with kidney disease, and many do not even know that they have it. CKD is considered a silent killer, as symptoms may only appear at kidney failure / end stage kidney disease. There definitely needs to be a shift in the medical field to be more proactive instead of reactive. It will take a village, as they say, to make these changes. But this is why we continue to educate for more changes in early stages and prevention. 💚
I agree .
You should see an older documentary called "Food Inc "
It backs up your suspicion about food and government allowances concerning political health motives😢.
Watch :Food Inc .
It gives credence to your comments.
😮Watch "Food Inc"
It is an older movie that gives credence to your comments and your thoughts
Watching replay. I have heard of the DASH Diet but not followed it.
Yes, I heard about the Dash diet
That's a good one!

Hello happy to join you❤
New subscriber here. Look forward to watching your videos
Thanks so much, Peter! We're happy to be a resource for you. 😊
I am stage 3b just diagnosed. GFR 43.i have been searching internet as doctor gave me no information at all. She said eat what I like. I had to ask for referral to a dietician. Australia
I use the Cronometer app daily to keep my food diary and to monitor trends.
That's a great way to track everything, Paul!
Thank you. I’ve had a different lab & went to stage 3b. Panicking!
I’m getting tested soon. I’m so scared.
Stage 3b is still pretty high up in kidney filtration. There are a lot of things that can be done to support kidney health. You've got this 💪🏼
I have heard and looked into the DASH diet a few years ago.
Did you ever try it out?
Yes
Edema foot ankle swelling are excellent early indicators of CKD so many people do nothing about this or know that their swelling is probably from weakened kidneys at some level
I’m watching on replay.
The DASH diet:
Low sodium, healthy fats, fruits/vegetables. Increase your
Fiber intake, whole grains, deal with sugar. Track your food.
Yup! Get the scoop on our blog: www.plantpoweredkidneys.com/dash-diet-for-kidney-disease/
ON REPLAY- heard of DASH diet but don’t know much about it
@sunnyvibes8528 - Google it.
Great information given, thank you!! I was just classified as level three CKD last month, my eGFR two numbers were: low 57, high 66. My Creatinine was 1.4, another lab report had my Creatinine at 1.2 two weeks later, no traces of Albumin protein found in the urine,. I have already started on a more plant based diet, adding much more fruits and vegetables and decreasing my animal protein intake. I exercise 5 to 6 days a week, combining aerobics and weight training but I have heard that vigorous exercise may contribute to elevating Creatinine level? Should I discontinue weight training and just stick to just aerobics. God bless you all for the great information you provide!!! James
Hi James! Thanks for your comment and kind words. We have an article that reviews more about exercise you may find helpful. www.plantpoweredkidneys.com/kidney-exercise/
We can't give directions to individuals here, but we are able to help with our private coaching if you're interested in getting exact answers for your situation (we review medical history, labs, food preferences and nutritional needs and more). 😊

Thank u po mam.
Happy to help! 😊
New to you! Love your approach..I’ve been diagnosed as 3B CKD. I’m in NY state and wondering where you are located and taking new patients?
I have never heard of the DASH diet !!
It's a fantastic heart-healthy diet that many can benefit from. Our team of dietitians teaches clients and students how to follow it. 💚
No, my primary care doctor has not mentioned the DASH diet.
Interesting! We've got a new article up all about it you may want to check out.

Thanks for the explanation about fiber. What do you think about ACACIA POWDER
I have been in stage 3a for a really long time I have had 4 primaries since the first comment of oh I see we are dehydrating you a reference to a water pill associated to a bp med I was on. Since then the onlybadvice I have been given is drink more water.
Unfortunately, there aren't a ton of medical interventions for earlier stages. There are a lot of opportunities for our diet though!
I have heard of it.
New Gail from Florida
With plant based diet I can reduce my creatinine from 3.2 to 1.6. I void any kind animal protein
Never heard of the dash diet.
Maybe we need to make a video about it then! 😉
Could you touch on what to do if you have iga nephropathy? I'm in stage 3 and confused on what to do to protect my kidneys. Thxs michael
Hi Michael! IgA nephropathy is a special situation. Our dietitians work with people privately to guide them on the best type of diet that works for their situation. There's really no one type of diet for kidney health. 💚
I am a butter lover, which type of margarine is a renal healthy one, thanks?
Check for the ones lowest in sodium and with no added preservatives. In general they can be safe to consume in small amounts, which is exactly how butter and margarine should be used anyway. :)
I was just told im stage 3i had no idea my dr is sending me to kidney dr so weird to see this today thankyou ❤
It was destiny! We're here to help. 💚
@@PlantPoweredKidneys7 6y
My doctor recommended drinking more water as the only way to deal with my stage 3. By only I mean that was his only suggestion.
Same here but I don’t trust that answer I’ve learned from YT Doctor Frida that I should watch my potassium and phosphorus
That can be one way to protect the kidneys. There are definitely more with good nutrition!
Is oats good to eat for ckd 3. Thank you for your info.
Oats are a great addition to a renal diet. They provide fiber and whole grains, can help cholesterol levels and blood pressure, and of course are so versatile! We have plenty of clients that enjoy oats. 😊
I am stage 3 kidney dealer am my diatesion told me I should stay from all Pease beans nuts an provisional most vegetables could u help me understand plz

Which seeds are safe for kidney disease
Good afternoon...is acid reflux conected to CKD 3
Many people with CKD experience gut issues, including acid reflux. Our dietitians work with patients to help determine the cause and minimize the reflux itself with diet and lifestyle changes.
I have not heard of Dash diet..Can you put up a link pls..
Google it.
We just posted an article about this 😊 www.plantpoweredkidneys.com/dash-diet-for-kidney-disease/
😊have not heard of 'dash' diet.
Thanks for sharing! We will be sure to talk more about this in future videos.
My boyfriend lost one kidney to cancer. He's not diabetic, but does have hypertension issues on occasion, which I guess owes to his latest stage 3 chronic kidney disease diagnosis. He's a meat and potatoes kind of guy and hates the idea of going vegan (we're both omnivores at heart and I'm pre-diabetic (although I'm working on my diet and weight reduction as we speak through exercise). Do you have any ideas?

My eGFR was always normal. Blood work during my last physical showed a eGFR of 49. The test was repeated a week later, and my eGFR went back to normal (>60). Is this possible, or could this have been the result of a lab error?
Hi Lenora,
It is possible, but ultimately it will be best for you to discuss this with your doctor.
They'll be able to look at your medical history and factors related to CKD,
and discuss a plan (like ordering re-draws).
I hope this helps.
@@tiffanytheppkva Thank you for your reply.
Normal GFR is above 100
Why do they wait until stage three before they tell you
@bernadettemcgovern4191 - THAT’s what I want to know!!!
Because usually blood work doesn’t show CKD until at a higher stage.
Earlier stages are often missed or just not seen because it is still a high enough kidney filtration rate that the body is fine. Additionally, there are some considerations like age and hydration status that can impact labs. A doctor needs a few tests before a CKD diagnosis can be confirmed- it won't be from just one result.
Never heard of dash diet I’m stage three b
It's interesting that we're hearing this a lot lately. Check out our latest article - hot off the press! www.plantpoweredkidneys.com/dash-diet-for-kidney-disease/
I have taken 3 blood tests and my doc. told me that my results are normal..
I know something is not quite right as I have lower back pain and have lost weight.. about 70kgs.I am going to demand for lab results and look for another doc.. to make sure I dont have ckd.I have not been diagnose with diabetes.
I have high bp..I have been given strong pain killers for back pain and this is the cause of all my current health problems.
@harkaipihigia6138 - Get a new Primary Care Physician asap.
I'm sorry to hear that. It seems like your doctor isn't on the same "wavelength" as you. Is it possible to get a second opinion?
Potassium nutrition isn't a "new" healthcare for high blood pressure. My mother had a heart attack with high blood pressure, and doctors were advising potassium with limitations of sodium in 1979.
I'm glad to hear your mother was advised to make healthy diet changes! In the renal world, encouraging potassium is new compared to the old renal diet of avoiding or restricting potassium. We're simply helping people better understand that the old CKD diet of low potassium is no longer the "normal" advice that should be given. 💚
I eat several servings of vegetables and 3-4 servings of fresh fruits mostly berries. I don’t drink juice as I prefer fresh fruits because of the fiber.
One place tells you whole grains another one says no. Talk about confusion. Stage 3 backpain and alot of nausea . 74yo.
It can be so confusing for sure! There are quite a few places that are still providing outdated guidelines (like avoiding whole grains). Be sure to check your source - are they citing references? Do they have information to back it up? Are they just speaking to personal experience? Many can talk about what worked for *them* but it doesn't mean it will work for you or anyone else.
Old school...saturated fats have now generally been accepted as healthy and do not pose any risk to heart health. Also, adequate salt intake is necessary.
What is a healty fat and a unhealthy fat. Is Cold Press Extra Virgin Olive oil a good fat?
Healthy fats are fats with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Some examples include avocado, canola, and olive oil.
Unhealthy fats are trans fats and saturated fats. Examples can include butter and lard. Coconut oil is also high in saturated fat, but in some cases we still say this kind can be okay as it doesn't raise LDL (bad cholesterol) like butter (research: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9132222/)

What is the watermelon good for ckd
Watermelon is good in moderation! It's actually a low potassium fruit per serving. Plus it has great nutrients like lycopene, and is very hydrating! :)
What is the worst foods for ckd
@@brianshields727 - Beef. Any processed meat that you can get from Deli.
I am stage 3 with a creatinine of 1.3 and a GFR of 44, other labs are normal, non diabetic, no high BP, have high cholesterol and taking atorvastatin with CQ 10, I am obese and just started walking, my doctor told me i did not need a diet restriction of any kind or need to drink more water, would the DASH diet without potassium and phosphorus restrictions be ok for me?
We can't give personalized recommendations here. We do recommend a low-sodium diet for most everyone. Potassium and phosphorus restrictions are depending on individual situations. Chat with your doctor and healthcare team to see if it's something you need to follow. If you'd like to learn more, we cover them in more detail in our PPK 6-week course! (Enrollment will be opening soon!) www.plantpoweredkidneys.com/course/
Please give a plant based diet a try. It does help so many of us and if you have access to a swimming pool try water aerobics and swimming a couple days a week, it's a God sent.
Thank you
@@van3363😊
What the FSGS diet and explain please
We don't currently have articles on this specific type of kidney disease, but stay tuned! :)
What is the worst foods for ckd
In a quick nutshell, highly processed foods (specifically ones with phosphate additives) and high-sodium foods are pretty rough on the kidneys. There are more details depending on the stage and situation of the individual (for example, high protein foods are bad for someone with stage 5, but important for someone on dialysis). We have a lot of articles at www.plantpoweredkidneys.com if you'd like to check them out! :)
@brianshields727 - Beef.
How often should labs be done?
That will depend on your physician. Generally, we see labs drawn anywhere from monthly to yearly. The more frequently they get done, there should be a plan in place to see what is changing.
3b caused by dye in scan! Now scared to death
Plant base is a great help. Drop the meat.
Get to the diet
Is drinking lots of water good or bad for kidney disease?
@robertwilliams4208 - Drink lots of water - it is good for your kidneys.
We have new videos coming out for this soon! Stay tuned 😉
They have to enrich the flour? otherwise it wouldn’t be a food! Don’t ya love our food laws and how much they really care?
Hmmm..Stage 3 ckd, Celiac Disease, diabetes & lactose...hot mess here😢
Aw, I'm sorry to hear that! You're not alone. Many people with CKD have other health concerns on top of it. Sending you a big hug. 💚
@@PlantPoweredKidneys TY! What is odd is that my health fell apart a few months are my husband of 37 years unexpectedly passed away😢
What meats are safe to eat without harming your kidneys?
It's not so much which ones, but more so how much. CKD may include a protein allowance that's lower than what most people are used to (especially here in the US, where protein is made to seem like a cure-all).
I consume NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS
We do not need carbs from starchy food. We need carbs from veggies. Complex carbs. I do not agree with you.. nope...people do your research..carbs is carbs. Sugar is sugar... whole grain is high carbs, no difference with any starchy food..
You keep on trolling with irrelevancies . Just come to the damn point. Get it done.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We'll work on it. :)
you totally lose me
Uh oh! How can we help?
