Episode 31: Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment: How I increased my GFR & improved my kidney function Part 2. My Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment Journey: Just 6 months ago today I was diagnosed at Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease and was told there was "Zero" chance of my kidney function improving and that there was nothing I could do to lower my creatinine levels and increase my GFR. The doctors had no recommended kidney disease treatment for me - her kidney disease treatment was dialysis. The doctors where wrong! In just 6 months I have changed my life and increased my GFR, lowered my creatinine levels, and improved my kidney function from Stage 5 to Stage 3. In this video, part 1 of 2, I share what I feel are the 10 most impactful things that helped me improve my kidney function, lower my creatinine level, and avoid dialysis. Let this video inspire you to take an active role in your kidney disease treatment and push for better care.

6. I Did things which could help or speed up my recovery
Doing helpful actives is important to my kidney disease treatment. I got 30 minutes of exercise 7 days a week. I added Intermittent fasting to my kidney disease treatment plan at stage 3 to give my kidneys some time to catch up.
7. I managed my weight
Make weight management part of your kidney disease treatment plan. At stage 3 I switched to a modified Kidney Friendly Keto diet.
8. I kept Stress at bay
It is not easy having a chronic disease and stress can build quickly - so managing stress is an important part of my kidney disease treatment plan. There are so many things to worry about and so many things keep happening around you to remind you that you are not healthy.
9. I love getting new labs
I learned to read and understand my labs - these show me how my kidney disease treatment plan is doing.
10. Keep Learning
I have learned everything I can about Chronic Kidney Disease - from reading books, to websites, to research documents, to talking to doctors and researchers all around the world. Knowledge truly is power and can help you maximize your kidney disease treatment plan!
Together, all of these 10 items are a key part of my Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment that has helped me to reduce my creatinine level, increase my GFR, improve my kidney function, and avoid dialysis. Treating kidney disease is still a challenging field for doctors, so please push your doctor to develop a Kidney Disease Treatment for you that best fits your kidneys condition and your lifestyle.

James, Not only have I seen the difference with your weight but you even look healthier. You look more rested as well. The dark circles around your eyes are fading. You are getting healthier from the inside & outside. It is great to see. Fantastic that you have a Doctor that will allow you to send your questions in well before your appointment. I wish all Doctors to be like that. I have recently found a great Doctor and I look forward to my appointments with him. He is happy to work with me to get me healthy again. He has a positive attitude too. He is the 5th Doctor so it took a while to find him but so glad I did. The other Doctors had that attitude that it was the end of the line for me. They can keep that attitude away from me as I have bigger plans for my future. Thanks for another great video.

@DADVICETV 5 лет назад

Thank you for your kind comments - and so happy you found a doctor that is positive and supportive! Most of us run into that - I'm on Dietitian #5 and she is amazing. For me, the difference between a supportive doctor and a "bad" doctor is massive. Good luck!!!

Hello. I am a 75 year old woman. I have stage 3 kidney disease climbing toward stage 4. 20 years ago I had a heart attack. I have crippling arthritis in my spine. I am also overweight. I have recently come down with my 3rd case of gout. The worse one by far. I am absolutely certain my poor functioning kidneys and poor diet have caused this. Thank goodness I discovered your advice videos. You have been more help to me than my kidney specialists. I am currently riding my diet of all added salt, sugar and unhealthy fat as possible. Also doing away with all foods that are triggers for gout. I have written down the foods you have listed when starting on your kidney friendly diet. Am trying to concentrate on eating only those foods. Of course I have discovered doing away with salt, sugar and fat have made me feel better. I love your videos. I thank you for them and hope you will keep up the good work and keep on posting more of them. Thank you very much.

+Patricia Tharp Thank you for sharing - it really warms my heart to hear of others who find my videos helpful. It was difficult making them at first, putting myself out there when I was still so sick and weak, but I am so glad I did. The videos show proof of how powerful diet can be when used as part of a treatment strategy for kidney disease. I have huge plans to take things even further in 2020 with many more videos and a lot more helpful information. If you don’t mind me asking, where are you located? I keep a map in my office and like to put pins for the different places people are watching my videos.

Pay special attention to what Dr. McDougall says about Oil & Fats. I was shocked to learn that Oil & Fats SUPPRESS OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM. If you get Cancer, your Immune System can fight it bcos it's supressed by consumption of oils/fats. Click link below & listen very carefully. Take notes. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ij1r27_dHk0.html Also, check out Dr. McDougall.com He offers lots of Free Info. Look for the list of foods to eat, which will Feed Our Gut Bacteria. Also, listen to one of his hundreds of lectures on youtube. * APO-E-Gene. Look it up. There the number 2 or 3 or 4. If you have 4, you die from eating fats. If you have 2, then you die from "not" eating fats, in both cases via diseases. Then there are sub categories of these numbers in combination. Do your homework on the APO-E-Genes.

@joycenowell3312 3 года назад

From my medical and scientific knowledge over the years as a student and a worker in the medical field and reports from medical journals tells me that everything we eat or drink, in other words everything that enters the body, is filtered through the kidneys and liver. They are our filtering systems. They may say things don't affect the kidneys. I beg to differ with them. If it goes through the kidneys at all, as we know it does, it does affect them. That's my honest opinion.

I can eat out anywhere and have no issues - I may just not be able to eat a lot of some foods. I've also come to see veggies as more than toppings for Pizza's and burgers. Life has gotten a lot easier and I'm so much healthier because of it.

@DADVICETV 3 года назад

Sorry to hear about your brother. I agree, education is what is needed to help CKD patients. And it needs to be provided to us so that we understand it, not in a lot of medical jargon. As the channel grows, I hope some of the big kidney organizations will see that and start shifting to more education in a patient focused style.

You may have to do a Q & A live stream when it is harder to answer individual questions on Facebook & RU-vid. You could even read questions from your past videos from the comment section and answer them all in one video :) I have joined your Facebook Page that way I get the notification from both FB & RU-vid. :)

@DADVICETV 5 лет назад

That is a great idea. I'm also chatting with a few doctors about possibly doing some live Q&A sessions with them. There are a lot of people out there who can't find a good helpful doctor or that don't have the means to see one. Bringing some of those doctors online to help answer questions would be fantastic.

From Kingman Az. Question for you. Neph is pushing for me to get a fistula to prepare for dialysis I'm at egfr 10 in 10 days I went to 11.3 I'm not ready to give up the fight I know you're not a doctor but in your opinion should I push back?

@DADVICETV 4 года назад

Only you and your team can decide when is the right time. If it was me, I would look at what have I done so far - if I had been eating poorly, I would certain give strict dieting a good try. But if you'd been sticking to a good diet, it may be time to get a access ready to prevent needing it in an emergancy.

@Spy530 5 лет назад

Dave from California, I’m currently at stage 4, I’ve been following you for little while now lots of good stuff thank you. Have you done any research on the Mayo Clinic? From what I’ve gathered they have done great amount of research on kidney disease. I have an appointment with them in July in Phoenix. Is worth the time and money, because my insurance is out of network with them. I would love your advice or if you’ve done some research on Mayo Clinic, what were your fundings?

@DADVICETV 5 лет назад

Both the Mayo Clinic and UC San Diego have made amazing progress in the furthering of knowledge about Kidney Disease. I've read research papers and exchanged emails/messages with both of them and found them SO helpful and advanced. To me, it would certainly be worth seeing them. A lot of people may think I'm just cruising along, following my diet - but I am still constantly talking to Nephrologist and researchers all over the place to plan far into my future. I'm currently on a modified Keto diet - doing great - and just got back about an hour ago from a doctor visit today planning out the NEXT phase for me after my 45-day Keto diet test, as well as the next phase after that. There is still so much doctors do not understand and you have to look to the leaders, like the Mayo Clinic and UC San Diego, to see the possible solutions. The more you learn, the better your chances of discovering a solution that works for you to help you get better faster. Good Luck!!!

I did watch part 1 and part 2, I am 58 years old, being with LUPUS and then ARTHRITIS, my GFR is 63, at what stage am I now?, being with LUPUS for more than 15 years now. In my case is reversible?. Can you talk about it, From California. GRACIAS ! . THANK YOU ! .

@DADVICETV 5 лет назад

You are in stage 2, but close to the border of stage 3a. Kidney function typically declines as we get older, so you can expect yours to decrease naturally over time. With a GFR of 63 you are considered lucky - you found out at an early stage where you should have little or no symptoms. Diet and living a healthy lifestyle (no smoking, no heavy drinking, no NSAIDS like ibuprofen) should help to maintain your kidney function so that you have no issues. My only concern would be with the medications you may take for your Lupis and Arthritis - important to make sure those do not harm your kidneys, which your doctor can verify.

Thank you very much sir.. by the way.. i had been downloading your videos sir since i come accross your video lastnight, as guide for my brother who is under dialysis. I hope i never violated any rules sir.. thank you very much

@DADVICETV 5 лет назад

Honey has SO many positives, just be careful if you are diabetic or on a low-carb diet. For your brother is can be helpful in preventing infections related to dialysis. Since your brother is on dialysis, have him check with his doctor to make sure there are no issues specific to him with adding honey to his diet, as well as how much he can have on a daily/weekly basis. His doctor may even have a recommended type of honey - they vary based on what the bees feed on that make the honey.

@ernestobasquinez8387 4 года назад

My latest lab creatinine is 361. My previous was 381. The doctors rated me to have stage 5 ckd. Could I improve more to increase my gfr and reduce my creatinine for 5 months by following your instructions? Thanks for your video presentation - it is very encouragiing

@DADVICETV 4 года назад

We are each a little different, so I can't give a 100% yes or no - but 5 months is a LONG time and there are things you can do to see if they improve. First you need to make sure you are treating the underlying cause to stop further kidney damage - blood pressure, blood sugar, etc. Then look at your current labs and your diet - this is where a dietitian can be VERY helpful. Lowering your Creatinine and BUN are 2 of the most difficult and time consuming. Diet is key - and that includes drinking plenty of WATER, eating less foods that cause creatinine to increase (animal proteins for example), and keeping you diet BALANCED. You can't starve yourself to health. I would encourage you to strongly consider talking to your doc about going vegetarian and seeing how that impacts your next blood work. I personally would not wait 5 months - I'd switch to a strict vegetarian diet, only drink water, avoid processed foods, get plenty of fiber, watch my salt (only use Pink Sea Salt) and then new labs in 30 days after doing that and sticking to it. This will let you know if it is working for you, which will give you the inspiration to do more. What do you typically eat during a week currently?

@ernestobasquinez8387 4 года назад

The truth I am avoiding eat meat including chicken. I'm now on diet by way of not eating too much, I can say semi vegetarian and fish, small cut of fried chicken (1 and 1/2 sq. in.). There are time I eat (just to taste small pork or beef) but the I do not swallow the meat - is it a good practice? Speaking of water, I am used to drink green tea, is it equivalent of drinking of plain water? OK, I will change my salt to Sea Salt or rock salt we commonly call it. In additiion I like fried rice with plenty of garlic mixed with granulated cabbage(half cooked) and add to taste cinnamon. I used to oatmeal as well in the morning. Thanks so much for your very encouraging reply. Best regards.

Hi dadvice I'm from Trinidad and recently because of my friend's dad kidney function decline , I came across your amazing and life changing videos. In the Caribbean you don't ever recover once you're diagnosed with chronic illness you just decline till the end and it's because of the fact that they always tell you eat with moderation when you should essentially cut it out immediately , when it comes to rice and bread .I myself for the last two months have been doing the keto diet , which has proved to be the next best thing for me I've lost 25lbs in 1 and 1/2 months and was able to introduce it to my boy friend after he was told he was type 2 diabetic and given metformin . It's one month into him using the keto diet and I've never given him a single dose of metformin and he has gone from fasting blood glucose of 159 to 90 . Bottom line it was because of research i was able to change my boy friends life and it's research that led me to your videos . I would really love my friend's father to listen to what you have to say but all I hear about is the doctors that Don't help to improve the illness with proper diet and the diet sheet that allows them to eat rice and bread and other things they shouldn't be eating in moderation .

Thank you for sharing - your boyfriend is VERY lucky to have you helping him, along with your friends dad. I just published video #55 a couple days ago and it goes into what foods you can eat, including what information you MUST GET from a doctor or dietitian so that you can make sure and get the minimum nutrients your body needs while not getting too much.

@DADVICETV 5 лет назад

You will want to eat a kidney friendly diet so that together your kidneys can keep up with you. You have plenty of function, so diet isn't as important though it is nice to always eat a balanced healthy diet. What is VERY important is to avoid bad habits that can damage your kidneys (like using NSAIDS such as Ibuprofen or eating StarFruit). Here is a video of the 12 most common bad habits that can damage your kidneys: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xL4VrDaf1yI.html - also if you want to eat better, there is a food guide you can download from www.dadvicetv.com/grocery-shopping-kidney-disease As long as you manage your blood pressure and blood sugar and avoid things which can damage your kidneys, you should be fine. Some people live their entire lives with just a single functioning kidney. If you start to see you overall kidney function decline, then you'll want to get more strict on the diet. There are also a lot of potential treatments being worked on - we may have an alternative to dialysis in the next 5-10 years. Keeping your kidneys healthy until then could help you to never need to think of dialysis and it's challengs.

I actually eat more healthy fat at that last meal to keep me from getting hungry. I have a video on Sleep here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7lGnEaeuMaE.html
