Pretty good advice. I changed my diet to total vegan and ended up with high protium and hospitalized. Beans other than green beans were stopped. Then I added back oysters sardines, albacore tuna, calf liver and 93% lean 4 oz hamburger Pattie’s. Result: HbA1c 5.4 with no meds for type 2 diabetes. And by using frozen blue berries, Fiji apples baked with Ceylon Cinnamon and fresh salad consisting of ice berg lettuce, red onion, red bell pepper, cucumber, white button mushrooms, red radish with olive oil and vinegar most days, but 2 times a week a cabbage soup consisting of cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, red onion, green beans, peas, white mushroom, red bell pepper in water with turmeric and thyme and fresh cracked black pepper I have a better eGFR. Went from 3 B to 3A. And went from 205 lbs to 130 lbs. walk outside not less than 2 miles but never more than 11 miles. Now that weight is off usually 3 miles a day. Food can be poison to medicine to your body!
Congrats!! This proves everyone is different. Some people are healthier on higher animal protein and some are healthier on WFPB. There is no one size fits all diet out there. People have to listen to their bodies and test results. Some people are more sensitive to oxalates and some more sensitive to animal protein.

Thank you so much for your salad and soup idea. It was incredibly helpful and I will be using them!
I wish I could eat like this- but I've got gout, and blueberries are my biggest trigger ;_; (the skin is full of purines) But I'll figure it out. My liver is more concerning at present.
@@Treemeadow Cherries! Tart cherry juice, cherry juice capsules, and fresh cherries when you can get them. Lowers the uric acid load. Use a search engine to see the studies. Works.
CKD patients need more guidance on how to best follow a whole plant based diet. We need charts that list each food with its protein content per half a cup portion in order to figure out what foods and how much of it we can put on our plates at each meal in order not to go over the daily limit. We are told to restrict our protein intake to a certain daily amount based on body weight but I have not been able to find a standardized chart that tells me at a glance the protein content for each food so I can plan my meals accordingly. We shouldn’t have to be guessing every time we fix our plates. The same goes for phosphorus, potassium, sodium and fat content. This should be the most basic resource that a CKD patient should have available at the PCP and nephrologist’s office, at the National Kidney Foundation etc. If you know if such a chart exists please let your viewers know, I and most of us would certainly buy it immediately. Thank you.
Research Dr. SEBI diet. He was a know black herbalist that died in police custody. There is a cure to a lot of these dieases they have put on us. Not telling us the poisions an toxins in the food, soaps and so on. I am stage 4 an not once has my nephrolgisht mentioned this to me. You would think going to school for so long you SHOULD know at least about Alkaline fruits & veggies. Healthy protiens and ect. The meat, their putting unatural hormones & toxins in these things. They don't plan on helping us cure our bodies. God made are bodies perfect. Drs claim there is no cure for AIDS,CANCER, DIABETES, HERPES. Their targeting American people, especially the oppressed. Medical field & Pharmacutical companies are just big cash cows, at our lives & loved ones expenses. ❤🙏🏽#GODHASTHEFINALSAY
Hi...I am a CKD patient and as yet haven't found a chart either. I have however downloaded the Cronometer App in which you can enter and save the foods you eat and it gives a breakdown of micronutrients that you've had that day. Example I just entered I've had a cup of cooked Kale which is 3 grams of protein. I'm keeping track that way which gives an overview of what I'm putting on my plate each day. The free version is sufficient for that or can pay to upgrade to get more detailed info. I hope that helps ...wishing you well 💜Xx
If you visit with a kidney dietitian, we have all of those charts and more. National Kidney Foundation has a directory listing of kidney dietitians for each state that are available to provide guidance and help CKD patients. Insurance may also cover these visits.
@rubenperales3173 Thank you for replying...I am in the UK & don't have any access to a kidney dietician, unfortunately. I've only just found out that I have CKD... apparently since 2014!
That's a lot more to do w kidney stones . Yes,that is included in kidney disease. You just have to avoid those foods that are high in oxalate ,then !! Lol I am very prone to kidney stones ,I love tea & chocolates & nuts !! But, I drink water w squeezed organic lemon juice every morning !! That takes care of it ,too if you didn't know . Of course, nothing is perfect. But, you can prevent that issue that way !! The most enemy to kidneys is phosphorus. That deteriorates kidneys !! Especially, animal sources. This is why plant based ,vegan diet are considered as the best diets for chronic kidney failures. Many nephrologists are recommending vegan diets ,including UCLA nephrologists. I am not vegan ( I was for 17 years ) ,I am vegetarian for almost 17 years .💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
I’ve asked this too AMAZING how he ignores oxalates when many board certified urologists mentioned how nuts and vegetables particularly beets lead to kidney stones and they mention when eating high oxalate food eat it with dairy to counteract the oxalates.
Of all the many many videos I've been watching while i'm having kidney problems, this is the one video that's really helped me a lot as regards about food to take in. You're the best, thanks a million. Your ideas completely will overhaul my way of eating all these years.
I am thrilled to hear the cooking doc promoting a whole food plant based diet! It is the answer to so many health issues. Plus it helps animals and the environment. Win-Win-Win!
Our kidneys work 24/7 like brain and heart and yet we forget to take care of these precious organs. Thanks for these healthy tips.... I appreciate your work
I thinkthis is an informative talk, it's just a guide line.Eating too much meat is not good for the body. I am grateful for the informative advice. Thank you doc.
I reversed kidney disease in my 12 year old schnauzer. Vet was shocked and told me my dog now has the blood panel of a puppy! Glory to God, my baby and I have much more time together! Edit: 8/24 As a dog rescuer, and an herbalist the dogs we rescue typically have health issues and i treat them with diet and herbs. I immediately feed my foundational diet of 20% raw meat with ground bones, 10% raw Green Tripe, 10% raw organic eggs, 60% steamed veggies, alpha Lipoic acid, salmon oil and vitamin d3/k2 and magnesium. CKD dogs get cruciferous veggies, especially bok choy because it is the most potent detoxifying veggie. * Cruciferous veggies are not good for a dog with Lupus or thyroid issues. Commercial dog food is NEVER fed to my rescued fur babies. I utilize herbs to meet their individual needs. As far as Roccos diet for CKD, I began with this same foundational raw diet, customized with herbs and suppliments. There is much more to it, but all CKD treatment is different. There is no one size fits all treatment for CKD. I work from individual bloodwork in order to suppliment what is missing and remove what is too high in the blood. Phosphorus is typically too high...when this is the case, I feed low phosphorus veggies such as bok choy, carrots, green beans, cabbage, arugula, astragulus. I add required customized supplements and elements, and 4 Tbl lemon juice per 10 cup batch. i add *Epikin to Roccos food. Epikin is a phosphorus binder. This is Roccos diet. Because no two cases are the same...customizing herbs and supplements should be done by a professional. I highly recommend seeing a functional medicine vet for guidelines in individual treatments for your dog. What healed Rocco could in fact harm your dog. Again, see a functional med vet. Hopefully, this edit does not get deleted like all the others, but probably will, because I promote a RAW MEAT diet for my dogs. This video promotes PLANT BASED diet. End of edit: 8/24
@@IgnacioRuiz-tb2nh Sorry. I can not help your dog. Every dog. Every case is different. With kidney disease there is no one size fits all. Rocco's diet is in direct response to HIS blood panel. His needs are specific to him. To best help your dog, you will need to base it off YOUR dog's blood panel. Kidney disease is a tough one as it affects all the organs. I strongly recommend working with a homeopathic veterinarian to come up with a specific plan for your dog. Example: Rocco's diet saved him, however it could be very harmful to a dog whose blood panel is different than Roccos'. So you see, one size does not fit all. I can share his basic diet. However, Rocco receives much more in herbs and nutrients specifically for him. STOPPED ALL COMMERCIAL KIBBLE, it's a slow toxin paving the way to disease and early death I bought a meat grinder to make homemade RAW food. I ground veggies first then chicken leg quarters with bone. ROCCO= 20 lbs. RATIO: 20% meat 80% Veggies. *RAW Blend= meat and veggies **NO ORGAN MEAT!!!! AS Per one cup serving of RAW BLEND, ADD: Raw beef Green tripe- 1 Tbl Veggies list is specific for KIDNEY health- (These veggies are harmful to dogs with Lupus) again...consult a homeopathic vet. Bok choy. #1 All cruciferous veggies Green beans Arugula Carrots Medicinal additives to address organ health; Activated charcoal- filters kidneys 1 tsp Vit D3/K2 with magnesium-4 drops (500 iu) Colostrum-. 1/8 tsp Alpha Lipoic Acid- sprinkles Moringa Oleifera 1 tsp Salmon oil- One pump squirter Ashwaganda 1 tsp Coconut oil- 1 tsp Fresh lemon juice- 1 tsp Parsley- 1 tsp Pink salt- one shake (light sprinkle) 1/2 cup filtered water. (Soupy consistency) *** Rocco had low potassium, so at noon, away from meals, I give him one thin slice of honey Dew melon, because it is high in potassium. I give fruit 2 hours away from any meat to prevent digestive woes. Fruit and meat do not sit well in the stomach together due to their differing digestion rates. SNACK- one Brazil nut (selenium) daily ***No jerky, or any commercial treats or chews!! No!!!...not a single product sold commercially. Poor ingredients, inert ingredients, high heat processing and preservatives were enough for me to run far away from commercial dog food and treats. This is all my opinion, I AM NOT A DOCTOR. I have shared what I did for my dog.
@@IgnacioRuiz-tb2nh Number one... STOP FEEDING DOGS WITH COMMERCIAL KIBBLE!!! Kibble, regardless of brand has a plethera of poor ingredients, toxic inert ingredients and preservatives that is killing your dog by slow death. Feed raw diet!!! With kidney disease each case is different. I used very specific herbs to respond to Roccos blood panel. Your dogs needs are different, so pointless to share precisely what i did. Get your blood panel, research everything so you can read it. Then give what is missing. I feed Rocco Raw, bone in chicken quarters, ground. Yes i bought a commercial food grinder. Besides Roccos specific proprietary nutrients, i add- Alpha Lipoic acid Activated Charcoal Salmon oil Vit d3/k2 with magnesium Parsley Nutritional yeast Sea salt sprinkle
I was diagnosed CKF Stage 4 last week. am told to stay away from high potassium foods. But my potassium is too low already. (3.2) and phosphorus foods. But my phosphate is normal (73). I am on day 5 of a vegetarian raw 30/70 diet. 70% raw and 30% cooked. Do I still need to watch potassium foods even tho I’m chronically low in potassium? Thank you so much. Blessings to your and yours for all of your effort to help ppl.
Thank you for a factual and most helpful video im 88 type 2 but just started getting kidney pain i think to much cheese and chicken meat both my fault.
Thank you doc very informative a lot of us try to do the right thing without all the education the know-how the right way to get things done to help things out you can look things up sometimes you get conflicting answers I appreciate you
Hi Doc good day, I was diagnosed CKD with my creatinine 3.76 i was so stressed what to eat everyday because my Dr never guide me what to eat he just told me to not eat meat please help thank you and God Bless🙏🏻❤🙏🏻
My kidney was damaged because of I was living in a water damage house and was found with high level of mycotoxins in my urine, never had diabetic or high blood pressure.
If I ate an all plant based diet my body would be wracked with severe kidney stones, alot of vegetables particularly beets a cauliflower and also nuts are very high in oxalates . Yes too much meat is bad but some fish like sardines are very healthy , especially in reducing dementia. So AGAIN please talk about OXALATES, because alot of plants are culprits.
How do I know if I'm getting enough nutrients not found in a plant-based diet? Things like iron and vitamin B12, for instance. Also, how do I know how much animal protein would benefit me as a 61-year-old woman with dodgy kidneys?
Hi Doctor, I’ve been reducing my meat protein and replace it with nuts and seeds. I’m worried about the phosphorus level. My last blood work was 5.2. So my question is should I start taking phoslo. Or adding calcium supplement with my meal. What do you suggest?
thanks! can your eGFR be reversed? Presuming you make the change of healthier eating, can the body actually recover? Or is it just about holding or maintaining current kidney health?
Great video. I have an angiomyolipoma on my left kidney. It's about 6mm. Could my obesity have caused the AML? I have normal bloodwork and stable BP....I am in my mid40s, female. There's barely any info on AML. It's a dark and lonely world. Doctor, anyone know how I can shrink the darn AML? Thank you!
Lets also talk about supplementation depending on what diet you adopt due to deficiencies that can occur making kidneys worse...example ...magnesium is imortant for kidneys...vitamin D also...vitamin D and magnesium should always be taken together...proper calcium...your B's... A and K a proper levels....cholesterol which goes down another rabbit hole...and you still have to make sure potassium levels are healthy not too low....they put emphasis on thebscary things but not enough or any on the good things....i feel like as great as grapefruit is for kidneys alot of us on amlodipine..felodipine ..etc...will have bad interactions...i want to talk with my doctor about getting off felodipine and maybe figure something else out so i can have my grape fruit.... Also organic grass fed, pasture raised, wildcaught meats...halal as possible....alkaline.....he touched on some...but we need OUR docs tontalk to us more about these things...please look into magnesium...iodoine...vitamin D... at least for starters
I was going to criticize this video by declaring you cannot reverse kidney disease with diet. But while the title is definitely geared towards more views, he did lay out quite clearly that diet cannot reverse kidney disease. I converted to a vegan diet and know the data suggests many benefits for CKD and health in general, but there are certainly some downsides to it as well.
What if you can't eat very many vegetables. Seriously, my digestive system is very very sensitive because I have allergies. Now what? I have no problem with ruminate meat! I nearly died on vegan. I had to take a huge amount of vitamins.. Can't eat plant based at all!
I due dialysis 3 days a week everything is great on my bloodwork but my albumen is only on low side 3.3 i get 70 mg of albumen in my blood stream during treatment i eat chicken fish beef protean drink not sure if having lower end albumen is ok
I've been doing intermittent fasting for over a year and it hasn't helped. But, I haven't had any issues either. If you wanna stop oxidative stress (damage to the organs) the supplement NAC should be taken everyday. 😊
One thing I never see in many (if not all) of these videos is, no one recommends people with kidney, liver, or other medical concerns to get an APOe Genotype Blood Test done. I am 3/3 Mediterranean. Suggestion: If you are concerned, get it done!!
Dr,Raju retired IAS Officer in Bangalore, karnataka state India.has reversed kidneys disease to his father who was 76 years by using plant based medicine, fish, flax seeds,buttermilk,curds reduce cereals pl check up these medicines. Dr raju treating many kidney patients, pl do ressearch in the interest of mankind
I hear from non medical videos talk about totally reversing without trying to sell you anything. Yet any medical one always says treating, never healing. It’s how you’re taught in medical school… it’s all treatments, never healing. I watched a bit of this video and turned it off as it’s one if those medical ones that is about treatment and improvement, but never about healing.
Lol 😂. You are right bro. I was thinking to myself this is really a bad video. What he is saying is that it can not be completely reversed . Very sad .
My gp once told me this is what happens in medical school, its hammered home from day 1 that only pharmaceuticals are any good. I don't believe that's so. So I guess that at the end of the day our health is our responsibility and how we choose to manage a comorbidity is up to us. There seems to be a lit of alternatives to lowering creatinine etc.
Eat small servings (3 to 4 ounces) of wild salmon, sardines, herring, and mackerel. Small fish with lots of Omega-3. Avoid large fish with high levels of mercury . Also, avoid added sodium . Lemon juice flavors fish nicely. Remember that tomatoes and celery have sodium naturally. You can purchase low or no added sodium canned tomato paste, sauce, diced, crushed, etc. Make your own sauces for your fish.
I appreciate your honesty and clarity! So many of us desire to become more healthy without relying completely on meds alone and, it is refreshing to know some things that may contribute in assisting the path to improved health. Thanks!
Thank you so much @sw-js6eh - that makes my day to hear because that is exactly why I wanted to make this video. Thanks for watching and sharing those kind words.
Thanks so much. You explained everything so well. I am doing mostly what you mentioned here and not so hard on myself. I eat mainly vegetables and some fruits, nuts and seeds, fish sometimes. I eat chicken now and then and meat now and then too. I make my own homemade mayo and it has two eggs in it but it lasts me about two weeks. So apart from that i eat eggs only sometimes. Last year i had stage 3 a kidney disease and now back to normal thanks to God and my mainly plant based diet. I am lower carbs so only have brown rice now and then. I have cream in my drinks, mainly three times a day so that's mainly my animal protein for the day really. That's about it.
