E 9: What to eat and drink for kidney disease? Best water for CKD? 

Thanks so much for checking out our video. Let us know what questions you have and we will add them to our upcoming episode!

My son was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy this year. I’m so happy to find this channel to better support his needs. Although he is in the early stages of a kidney disease, I strive to keep him as healthy as possible for as long as possible by any means possible ❤️

Recently I was diagnosed with stage 3 and I don’t know what to eat. I’m glad i sub to your channel.

Recently diagnosed with CKD stage 3a, found your channel seeking information for a better diet and care. Great information, thank you!

Wow! You answered all my questions without my even asking! Thank God for your knowledge and willingness to share this information. 😊

Just starting to watch this and have learned so much. Hope you keeping having this on RU-vid

I have kidney disease, I had cancer in one and it was removed. Now the one kidney I have is not hundred percent, I have been stable for 12 years, but found your Chanel helpful. It is just reminding me of certain things, and it makes me aware of what I must do. And your program is not so loooooog and boring.....❤️❤️❤️

Very valuable information here. Thank you to both of you for your generosity for teaching us here. Just looove this chanel.

Dr. Sean you are a gift - thank you SO much for this!! SO well explained! SO helpful, Michele! I am learning so much from you both!

Omg!!! I'm so confused! I listened to this whole video AND I STILL DON'T HAVE A CLUE OF WHAT IS SAFE TO EAT if you have kidney disease!!!! Can you just make it simple? Like give us a list of vegetables and fruit? That's all ... veggies and fruit because I'm pretty sure meat is a no-no!!!

Fantastic and highly enlightening video! I am grateful that you shared.

Kidney solutions needs either of you on a zoom call with us. Brilliant practical advice

I’m so happy I found this channel! I was recently diagnosed with stage 3 CKD as well as high blood potassium. I won’t be able to see the nephrologist for a couple of months. So this information is invaluable! Is there a list you have compiled with the brands of bread, tortillas, and other staples with low sodium and phosphates? That would be so helpful! ,

I am so glad I found you. I am stage 3b and told by 2 nephrologists that diet doesn't mean that much. I have followed a diet on my own for a year and felt so much better. Moved to a senior living with no added salt diet meals which is just not enough for me. I will use the water filter with my bottled water from now on. I also am curious about the carbonated water. I drink that with just flavor added nothing else.....at least nothing listed extra on label. I am thrilled with the info you are presenting as so far every video has answered questions that I have. Keep up the good work. Bless you both.

I’m very happy that I found your channel. Both of you make everything very easy to understand, I will be looking forward to your future videos! Thank you 🙏 very much.

Thank you Dr Sean and Michelle! Great information, I appreciate the tip on potatoes 😊 I’m looking forward to your podcast on K2.

Thank you so much for all videos, thank you Dr Sean.

Excellent you both make it easy to understand. Thank you❤

Also, can you do an updated full episode dedicated to essential vitamins/supplements based on each stage? My family has particular interest in this topic for stage 3 where there are no dietary restrictions but energy is already a big challenge. Thanks for all you all do!

Thank you for sharing this information.

Awesome..... Thank You very much for this episode ❤️

Thank you for this information. It’s very helpful.

Love your program don’t think it is to Lon or boring. I found it very educational and life saving.

I’ve just been leaning more about K2, it’s so interesting

This was shocking to me: BRITA water filters has just been sued because of there claim to filtering is said to be false. In other words its not filtering the way they claim. Please look into this if you would.

OK. I'm a lifelong oxalate kidney stone😅 -maker and vegetarian for the past 20 years with a past passion for sugary carbs. Latest 24-hr x 2 urine test summary concludes with longstanding bilateral kidney stones despite reasonable fluid intake and a basically good diet. Of fruit and veg After years of living with kidney and gastric disorders I'm absolutely convinced that IBS and certain bowel disorders; leaky gut for example play a significant role in the making of kidney calcifications Although, blood tests may show no abnormality in Creatinine and protein levels in the kidneys, in much older years weight gain, kidney stones and hypertension can become a bigger problem when the diet is not carefully adjusted. In my early seventies my diet is good, but without sugary carbs, gluten and salt. These three cancer-causing foods are absolute poison in the gut, including weight gain and even inflammation of the joints. I might then suggest thst Kidney stone sufferers are well advised to substantially cut sugar, salt and gluten out of the daily diet altogether. Thank you.

I absolutely love the information Michelle & Dr Hashmi provide as a team. I am a NP, but I learn so much from both of you. The information is practical, presented in an easy to understand way and so relevant to those with kidney disease. Thank-you both so much! You are providing essential information to the public & you both are much appreciated.

Very interesting information

You had me running ti check on the ingredients on my corn tortillas: corn,water,corn flour & trace of lime. 0mg of sodium, 25g carbs for 2 tortillas😀 Thanks for all the info, I'm going to have lots of questions for the dietitian... I'm binge watching your videos now.

Thanks Dr! I had a kidney transplant 28 years ago, I am doing well eating plant foods and some fish. I’m 5’ high and weight 103. I would like to gain some weight. I’m 76 and very active practice yoga every day and walking most days. Since a had transplant I stopped eating meat, no one told me to I used my intuition to do what is good for my body. For 2 weeks I have been watched your advice on how to protect your health. It’s. Very interesting and I appreciate very much. Sorry for my English spelling.

Mexican mango, the ones nature drops because they are mature super sweet ready to eat, is the MY FAVORITE

Frm CA, thx for educating the public.

Love your videos very helpful indeed! I know that people with Ckd are supposed to eat low protein but, what about vegetarian Morning Star products,my food has very little sodium.😊

Most plant based milks , oat, soya, almond etc usually only contain a tiny amount of the base…..they are mostly water and additives….not many people realise this…

Hi Dr and Michelle from Southeastern Indiana, great video... I'm trying to get my Husband to eat more fresh fruit, or any he just doesn't eat it. What is a great way to incorporate more fruit in his diet ?

A yr ago? Is this the last video you have put out? This popped up in my feed and is the first video I have seen from you. Thx

Can you comment on the use of Himalayan pink salt and CKD. You have a great show!

In your discussion of teas, it sounds like you were referring to various forms of green tea, which contain caffeine. How about non-caffeinated herbal teas? I ask because I drink hawthorn and hibiscus tea. A related question is that I have an overactive bladder & I can't drink 1 to 2 liters of water (as Dr. Hashmi suggests) or I will be peeing all day & night.

Good evening doctor hashmi . Could my blood pressure medication lisinopril be the cuse of my kidney problem. It started at the same time started taking it for bp month later my gfr started to deteriorate.

Good morning..I am so happy to have found this channel!!! I live in Italy and I have not had all this information, you have opened up a whole new world for me!! I have a thousand questions but I will only ask one..I have been on a plant based diet for years now..apart from kidney problems I also suffer from ibs...that's why I became vegan after being a vegetarian..I was watching another video and it was talking about oxalates, which come from vegetables and its very dangerous for who is following a plant based diet and that have kidney problems..I am so worried now!! I'm terrified about what I should eat..my question is... Is it dangerous to follow a plant based diet if we can damage even more our kidneys from the oxalates in vegetables? I'm so confused and scared..it would be lovely to have a video on this subject Thank you so much.

Always great info! Thank you!!

I live in UK I could not fidn EWG website. Is there one in UK that I could access.

I have a reverse osmosis (RO) system in my home but I bought a cartridge with minerals that is attached to my RO system. Should I remove that cartridge and drink only either RO water? Is distilled water better to drink with kidney disease?

How is the grams or armend,corne for eat ckd petionts

Dr Hashmi thanks

I would like to know if organic Blue Agave ok to use for a ckd patient?

Too bad that Ezekiel Bread is so expensive! Close to $7.00 a loaf in some of the stores where I live!

Using only veggies as meat substitute is problematic for CKD patients. There's too much potassium & carbs and there's. Veggie protein is not as efficiently used as animal protein and without enough protein the body will consume it's own muscle tissue and there's more to meat than just protein. Meat has a bunch of nutrients you can't get anywhere else. You'll need to take supplements.

I eat once every 24 hours only boil vegetables or green leaves salad with only sprinkle of organic olive oil please advise

What do you think about Hyponatremia in low sodium diet. My mom in CKD stage V non-dialysis and start plant based diet but its not 100%. Its been 2 Times in a month she needs NaCl3% iv. Will LMNT added or or salt tablet or salty food is safe for her? Since her BP fluctuated 138 to 171 through the day....and her Potassium increase to 5,2 from 4

Hi i have protein in urine can we have dairy products,what abt coconut milk also fish ?

I agree with Sean! I also love mangoes but for me on a par with papayas. 😋🧡

Do you have a research about kangen water? From japan filtered.

What causes low potassium? I get heart flutters when I am low and it's scary sometimes. What is causing this? High protein? I know flaxseed oil helps reduce C-reactive protein. Is that Creatine? Mine is a little high.

Will the k2 lecture here or will it be somewhere else?

Is moringa good for a Stage 3 ckd patient? Kindly advise!. Thank you.

Hi plz tell me my creatinine level is 0.8 is it ok?

Great advice and really appreciated as my hubby strives to improve his kidney function through better dietary choices. But can you help us by answering this question: can a borderline CKD stage 2/3 patient eat a higher amount of protein in a diet that is 100% plant-based, or must the diet be restricted to the normal 0.6-0.8 g/kg body weight? Thanks very much.

Menu for a week or more would be great

Here in the Philippines all you can find in bread is made with the cheapest ingredients. Been to many bakery’s only find wheat no whole wheat. Nothing really healthy. Hard to stay on a kidney diet

Watching from Antigua

Some food food for kidney is not for thyroid.. works be nice to know how to tackle this challenge

Dr Berg says that we put too much emphasis on sodium intake. If you take too much sodium add potassium. Is this true?

What can you say about eating deep fried beef large intestines

Mangoes are actually super easy to cut once you learn how to efficiently pull the peel off.

Doc, do you mean all kinds of CHEESE is forbidden for people with chronic kidney disease? Would you please give me a reson for that Doc. Thanks.
