What are the best foods for kidney disease?

Well, they're somewhat different than the foods that you would eat to prevent a kidney problem.

If you were trying to prevent kidney disease, you would consume the foods on my program,

which is the healthy version of the ketogenic diet within a minute fasting,

because that provides not just low carb, but high quality foods,

since the cause of most kidney problems stem

from diabetes insulin resistance high sugar high carb diets but that being said we want to talk about

what do you eat if you have a kidney problem there are various stages of kidney problems you have have stage one, two, three, four, and five.

Five being end stage, which means you're usually on the list for dialysis, and it's irreversible.

So I'm going to kind of split this up into kind of the make-break point of when you would start

eating what I'm going to suggest, okay? And that would be stage 3A through stage

five. So if you're between a 3 and 5, then we're going to talk about what food you should eat.

And the kidney has a bunch of tiny little filters called nephrons, and they're basically there to

filter the blood. So when they can't filter anymore because they're damaged,

you start getting waste that backs up into the blood. And you also have problems with these

very specific nutrients. Phosphorus becomes too high. Potassium becomes too high. Sodium

becomes too high. And then protein in general. So that's one way to diagnose

kidney problems as having protein in the urine. So let's first take a look at protein. You need to

lower your protein a little bit, okay? But of course, keep the quality there as well, which I'll talk

about. So how much protein would you really need? A normal amount of

protein, let's say for myself, I weigh about 185 pounds. I would need to apply this one formula.

And this is kind of really a rough estimate, like 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram. And what that
