Today I want to cover the best foods for kidney disease.

The top causes of kidney problems are diabetes, insulin resistance, and high-sugar, high-carb diets.

Consuming a low-carb diet, like the Healthy Keto® diet, and doing intermittent fasting are two of the best things you can do to help prevent kidney disease.

But, if you have stage 3A through stage 5 kidney disease, you may want to consider making some adjustments to your keto plan.

If you have a kidney problem, it’s important to work with your doctor to make sure certain nutrients aren’t out of range. These nutrients include potassium, sodium, and phosphorus. Protein levels can also become too high if someone has a kidney problem.

The best diet tips for kidney disease:
• Consume lower amounts of high-quality protein (pasture-raised organic eggs, wild-caught fish, seafood, and grass-fed, grass-finished beef)
• Consume lower amounts of sodium (2,300 mg of sodium per day)
• Avoid processed foods and junk foods
• Avoid high-potassium foods and consume low-potassium foods
• Avoid soda
• Avoid foods high in phosphorus
• Take the natural form of certain vitamins (B vitamins, vitamin C, and vitamin D3)
• Get plenty of omega-3 fatty acids (take cod liver oil)

💊 1: Kidney disease requires a different diet than preventing kidney problems.
💊 2: Different stages of kidney disease demand specific dietary considerations.
💊 3: Reduce protein intake, aiming for about 45 grams per day in later stages.

💊 4: High-quality protein sources like eggs, fish, and grass-fed beef are preferred.
💊 5: Limit sodium intake to around 2, 300 milligrams per day.
💊 6: Foods high in potassium, such as beet greens, spinach, and avocados, should be avoided.

💊 7: Choose low-potassium vegetables like cabbage, cauliflower, radishes, etc.
💊 8: Watch phosphorus intake by avoiding phosphoric acid in sodas and reducing meat consumption.
💊 9: Focus on low-phosphorus foods like berries, poultry, certain seafood, and eggs.

💊 10: Balance potassium intake and always monitor key nutrients with your doctor.
💊 11: Disagree with recommendations to include grains in an end-stage kidney disease diet.

Husband has had 4 acute kidney crisis due to undiagnosed autoimmune disease. Each crisis catapulted kidneys to the next state. This past month it was clearly stage 4. The nephrologist, a very good dr, sent us home with diagnosis, but no education on what to do next. "Lower bp. Lower salt. Don't overdue protein." Feeling so sad and overwhelmed. Reversed trajectory by adjusting thyroid medication and totally removing phosphate additives from diet. This video is the first I could find anywhere which actually explains how to calculate protein to reduce the overload on the kidneys. This information is the first practical information making an adjustment for AKD. Thank you.

I am doing a 180 on my old lifestyle and eating and dropped 20 lbs in 4 weeks, cut out carbs and I am eating veggies and berries and walking a bit more, I have more energy and my day and sleeping better, drinking lemon water most of the time and limit my portions of salmon, cod or white chicken, also egg whites, I am loving steamed and sautaeded onions and red bell peppers, It was a great life change for me and very hard to do as i am Italian decent and love all that goes with that, but loving the results.

We live, we learn, and sometimes we never learn, what's good for us and what's bad for us. Thank you, Dr. Berg for the knowledge that you teach us!!!

Diagnose Stage-5 Kidney failure 7.5 years ago. GFR-10. It is now 59. It can be done depending on the cause/damage. Good luck.

Plant protein is the best for the kidney. I’m doing this now. Im on dialysis. I’m seeing great benefits. Eat potassium, phosphate & sodium in moderation. Eat more fruits melons & berries. Make a food diary. I stay within 40 grams of protein a day but I’m small so adjust according to your weight like he said. 20-30 ounces of water or fruit juice until urine output increases then increase drinking accordingly. Eat more raw. Make sure you pooping a lot. Eat lots of fiber. Sweat as much as you can. Free game! Happy healing.
