Thank you for your support! I'm still going strong without Dialysis or transplant. Catch the LIVE interactive streams at www.youtube.com/@DADVICETV/streams Don’t miss the books I have published to help you conquer CKD: www.dadvicetv.com/book
Bad advice. You're leading people in error. Sure, diet and exercise and lifestyle are important, but don't tell people to not get dialysis. It's a life or death situation, especially if you're stage 4 or stage 5. It's malpractice and morally and ethically wrong. Bad advice....
What quality of life is left after spending all your time checking your body and staying on Strick diets? Life and living free is all the reward I need to take excellent care of my body.
33 yrs old. Stage 4 CKD. I was told there is no way to reverse this. My nephrologist informed me on 2/15/24 that my GFR was 17%. I was then scheduled for dialysis class. That same day I removed all meat from my diet and had very little dairy. I completed blood work on 2/27/24. At my next appointment 2/29/24 my GFR was 22%. SWITCHING WORKED!!! I refused to accept dialysis as a condition for me. I knew that there had to be something I could do. I’m thankful that I had enough time to figure out alternatives. 22% is better but still obviously dangerously low. If you’re reading this and still have time, CHANGE YOUR LIFE! SAVE YOUR LIFE! No one can save you but you! I don’t know you but I am rooting for you ❤️
I've watched videos where people have completely reversed the disease eating a low carb keto diet with more protein. It's individual. If a person is sensitive to oxalates, a low protein diet with high veg will make it worse
My Mom died on dialysis.... I read that once seniors are put on dialysis they don't last long. Very Sad...... They told her if she went off of dialysis she would die, they used fear to keep her as a cash cow.... So glad you set yourself free... God bless you !
Six months ago I was stage three. I did what you said and: I can't know exactly when it happened, but I got my lab results back yesterday: I'm cured! THANK YOU. MAN.
It's great that your kidney labs are normal - congrats. It is very likely you had what is known as an AKI - which is a kidney injury that can recover with time. Stick with living a healthy lifestyle and following your health care team's guidance - the healthy choices made today have a massive payout down the road.
I have a 6th thing: Have a positive attitude! 18 years ago I was supposed to DIE from severe acute pancreatitis from 22,000 level triglycerides! All of my organs were failing and I was given 24 to 48 hours to live! The pain was so excruciating that my screams were disturbing the rest of the hospital so they put in a medically induced coma and had my husband call my parents to fly in and see me before I died. Well a miracle happened and I awoke from my "permanent" vegetative state 30 days later! And made even the doctors say the M word...lol. I was on dialysis for 4 weeks post coma, told was going to be put "on the list" 🤯 one day...went to the doc for blood test and back to diagnosis the next day and at check in the nurse looked at me funny and asked me why I was there... 🤨 so I asked her why do you think I'm here for an oil change? She said, no...your kidneys are completely HEALED! YOU NO LONGER NEED DIALYSIS! ANOTHER MIRACLE!!! THANK YOU LORD! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My 19 year old son battled cancer. Chemo destroyed his kidneys.I'm on a mission to help him improve function. We are NOT giving up! Cancer survivor and now Kidney disease survivor!
Best of luck to you and your son! Diet/Nutrition plays a huge role in managing kidney disease. Check out the videos with co-host Jen Hernandez (Renal Dietitian) and Dr. Rosansky (Nephrologist) on www.DadviceTV.com - you'll find lots of helpful information there!
I'm curious how he's doing as well. I'm 38 but 3 years ago I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. One of the chemo I was on did a number to my kidneys as well. Currently in stage 3.
@@phillipsuarez2759 how are you hanging in there Phillip? My son is currently 8 years post-diagnosis and 7 years since his bone marrow transplant. He's currently in NED and other than his kidney disease stage 4, he's just living life as a normal twenty-two-year-old yesterday was his birthday! They always told us that years down the line he would probably get secondary cancers do the radiation and possible heart issues however this kidney thing has been devastating.
I had acute renal failure. After 8 months on dialysis, my kidney function returned I was taken off dialysis. It's been 8 years now and my kidney function is still stable
Check out the videos under the LIVE tab with Dr Rosansky - at 82, your kidney health will most likely be better than you think. Keep an eye on your blood pressure (keep it controlled), stay active, and focus on living a heart-healthy lifestyle. If you have protein leaking in your urine, talk to your doctor about medications to reduce or eliminate that. If you have no protein leaking - that is awesome!
If you take non steroidal anti inflammation drugs (like ibuprofen, advil, meloxicam, etc), you might be helped by stopping them. If your blood pressure is high, see your doctor and press them to help you get it as close as possible to normal (120/80). Are you diabetic? If yes, you need to make a serious effort to keep your blood sugar normal (such as avoiding food high in sugar or food high in carbohydrates).
Keep fighting friend! drink more water. Take teas like ginger, dandelion . Go mainly fruiterian and vegan.. 0 procedes and bread . Do green juices ocassionslly eat meat
@@ricebunnymoon4624Too much fruit is bad, either... fructose can get you a fatty liver. Also don't generalise about bread. You cannot compare the usual white bread with whole-grain bread.
Step 1: you need a great Dr. Step 2 : control BP and Diabetis Step 3: monitor blood work Step 4: modify your diet Eat something that put less stress on kidney Step 5: be aware of medical suppliments Step 6: Be active (walking helps, 10,000 steps a day) Step 7: manage weight Step 8: manage stress
@aBbhie's Kitchen did you watch the video and look in the drop down information links? The question you ask is to someone who was good enough to list the points made in this video, they are, like you and me, searching for their own answers. Good luck in your search.
Please help me, I was diagnosed of kidney stones on July this year,after some months , i have been taking a lot of fluids, then noticed that my foot pit when I apply pressure on it, so I decided to see urologist, he advice me to do a test, 24hrs urine test for protein, ca and uric acid with serum electrolytes my uric acid is a bit higher, urea and is within normal range but others are at the board or line. But the dr said is normal, bui I am having severe pain at my back
Hi! I was diagnosed with stage 4 and was facing dialysis by the end of the year. I went vegan &intermittent fasting.That was 10 yrs ago! Now my GFR is 45 to 48.
Thank you found you today. Was told after last Friday's cat scan im 15% in left kidney 85 the other. I cant urinate on my own. Gladly accept all prayers . Thank you ♥️♥️🙏
My sister is not able to urinate on her own either I'm scared for her she's on dialysis but she only does 2hrs 3times a week she won't listen to any doctor AT ALL she wont even get the catheter so she can urinate . I just don't know anymore she rarely rarely eats, and when she does it's like a teaspoon.
I had 4th stage CKD and found the best Nephrologist ever. After 2 years with him, he has now fired me. He said that I didn't need him anymore. My kidneys were better than his. After 33 years of multiple sclerosis, it was nice to actually lose a doctor. Now, I only have 6.🌹😊👍
@@ericad5933 Except for drinking at least 66oz of water each day, trying to keep my GFR close to 50, and stopping a medication that lowers my blood pressure to insane levels (50/30 and less,) I can't think of anything else. Sorry if this doesn't help.
Thank you, Dad Vice. I noticed (forgive me for this description of the alert of my situation) foam in my urine. I didn’t know what that meant . . . Plus, my back itched like crazy . . . I didn’t know what THAT meant, until Dr. Mandell posted an explanation of kidney problems on RUclips. So, of course, I started researching kidney disease for myself. Well, beloved Dad vice, I changed my diet . . . I still eat a Keto diet with intermittent fasting . . . But, I have reduced the amount of meat and fish I had been consuming and have increased my plant-based powders and whole veggies into my diet. After doing that for a couple of weeks, the foam and bubbling is gone! My back is no longer itching and I’m not urgently having to go the bathroom every half an hour or 45 minutes. I, now, can sleep for hours . . . Thank You, LORD Jesus . . . And am regaining strength. For this 75 year old woman, THAT is VERY good news!!!
I appreciate your video I had a heart valve installed over a year ago and one by one I'm removing the other issues. I just have taken a blood thinner and thank God I think my bladder is okay but we are in the process of checking that and I have my catheter in now and it's starting to drain clear Thank you for your video and your support I wish you and everyone else well!😅
@Viper-ms9eg , that isn't true. Too much protein, especially animal protein is harder on the kidneys. Everything in moderation. It's coming from those that are experts in their field of discipline and have wealth of experience, and knowledge. Dr Gundry, a cardiologist suggests to stay under 20g, if one wants longevity. He’s a promoter of health, suggests one eats the right foods. Research his work.
My Daughter passed away in March 2022. After her passing my health took a turn for the worse. I am diabetic, after she passed my blood sugar levels were out of control. A1C has been as high as 14+. I have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure, & my kidney function is low 36% and that is the function in both kidneys. I have had urinary tract infection, bladder and kidney infection. I take antibiotics and 3-4 days after I finish my antibiotics the infection is back. I have been hospitalized for mersa , pancreatitis, kidney stones and infections over the past year. I feel extremely tired, difficulty sleeping, nauseous after eating. I am seeing a nephrologist, urologist, and now a cardiologist. Thank you for ll your Information.
Please look into something for parasites, every sickness is a parasite. And I don't understand why they use the term because, of it sounds bad. The flu is a parasite and the treatment is out there. I take a product called, intestinal edge. It natural and just for parasites. I will pray for you.
My mom was hospitalized for 18 days and now needs dialysis 2-3 times a week- she’s living with me now and I’m not exactly sure how to take care of her- I got zero nutrition information from her damn hospital. All everybody can say is that this is irreversible. I’ve looked all over web for info and some hope. So far you’re the only one who’s given me any. You are quality, my friend. Thank you so much!!
@Héctor Ramírez can u please guide me if a patient on dialysis nd she is shugur patient also then what can she eat or any diet plan for low creatinine?
@Héctor Ramírez My Drs as well don not talk to me about diet too much. I tell them I do eat healthy and then question why is this happening?? These videos help. You do not realize when stress rises that it's food... Problem is getting weak comes very rapidly.. Thank you. Madeleine Ps I am on the verge of kidney and bladder problems.
Thanks for the video brother. I did 2.5 years dialysis to a kidney transplant and am now rejecting the transplant after 4 years. I'm in Ontario and doctors are very few and far between, but I'm going to try your advice, and am hoping for the best. I have 3 kids and a wife that is no help...at all. As I watch this video I'm sitting in a room the my wife has packed to the brim and am trying turn it into my daughter's room while she complains the entire time; so when you hit the last step I laughed out loud, took 3 deep breaths and am now gonna go for a walk. God bless everyone.
My dad got diagnosed with kidney failure. He only had 10% of kidney function. Literally just two days ago. When he gets home we are making changes to his diet and exercise. Non stop crying. He almost died. I’m looking forward to this journey of regaining his kidney function. Going to educate and watch your videos for help.
How is you dad now ? My father is dying because of kidney failure He has a diet but we don't knowbhow to reverse it I need some personal coach for my father and I don't know how to work with this community Can you please help me What you did and how you doing and how can I connect with these coaches
I just saw one of your videos. THANK YOU for what you’ve done!! My wife has been on dialysis for 8 months and NO ONE can give us a straight answer! I worked in the medical profession for over 30 years and I’m sorry to say that medicine is now BIG BUSINESS!! It’s all about profits. We will be following your advice! Thank you!!
@@mansi_16836 I cut out all things with too much potassium and phosphorus. No sodas at all, just drank flavored water. No red meat, mostly fish and vegetables. Chicken every so often. Tried eating fresher food and less processed. Walked alot to keep active. In my case, stopped two prescribed medications that were lowering my kidney function also…A water pill and a high blood pressure pill. Stopped nsaids too.
@@micheleb2195 I really hope what I am reading is true because I am initially doing the exact same step-by-step process but I just really want to know is this real so I can continue it
I am a walking example that your advice is priceless. I followed your suggestions and within three months moved from GFR 18 to 28. Thank you for your inspiration! ❤️
I just got the news I’m EGFR 60. My doctor has no idea what kind of patient I am. I went cold turkey on meat, sugar and carbs. started fasting to lose weight and get BMi to just below normal. I will test blood again when bmi hits target. My diet is absolute strict perfect. Funny thing is a shot of garlic, olive oil and vinegar makes the oatmeal I after that taste like lobster bisque.
I hope my mother will recover from her stage 3 kidney disease, just hoping and pray and I'll do my best to help her fight that CKD, because I love her so much.
Check out the videos I do with Dr. Rosansky - those are great for older adults and contain a lot of very helpful information for both you and her. I think you will be pleasantly surprised! You can find his videos at www.dadvicetv.com/drrosansky
Stage 3 isn't too far down the track, depending on the type of course. You really need a diet that helps. Some exercise is good but the diet is very important, along with sleep and managing stress. Easier said than done but very possible.
Went from stage 4 to stage 2 in 6 months. A good primary care physician makes a great difference. I had hypertension that was very well controlled but unknown to me I was diabetic. Surprised Dr by really following my diabetic regimen was able to lose weight and get off insulin. Work in my garden to relieve stress and make sure the Dr and I are on top of my labs. You really have to be motivated but it's worth it. Glad you are speaking out on this to help others.
Hello Sir , I am from India , I am diagnosed with CKD 5 BCS of hypertension , now Dr. told me to do dialysis but I don't want to go through that , I am very positive and lose my weight as well but I am not able to control my stress ,any suggestions from you
I am thankful for God leading me to this video! I am pre diabetic, my god son is about 400+ lbs. A good friend just told me she let them take out both of her kidneys. I don't know how to share with her that she didn't have to let them take them out.. smh smh smh This is a blessing for so many people.
You’ve encouraged me so much with your videos and in just a couple of months, I went from a GFR of 34 to 60 which is pretty normal for me considering I’m 66 and have had ckd for over a decade. Thanks again!
You have inspired me!! A few months ago I was diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease. I got scared and started researching. Now I’m inspired! Thank you for sharing your journey! I want to see you heal. I’m hearing positive messages now 😊
💕. Absolutely true! My mom was diagnosed with CKD, told she was near going on dialysis. We created a chart for her to record the quantity of sodium, protein, phosphorus, and potassium she consumed daily. It wasn't long before she had her kidneys functioning back up to 70% which was closer to her age range. Such am inspiration!
patricia beckman wow really?! My husband is in stage 5 CDK and his doctor wants to put him on dialysis ASAP and scheduled to do surgery to prepare him for PD dialysis while waiting a donor for a kidney transplant. I tried the same diet that you’ve done but it’s not working. My husband kidney function decreased from 15 to now 8, in 6 months. Is there anything else you have done beside the diet to increase the function of your moms kidney?
Yes please could you share a diet chart. As i am newly diagnosed and i have a brain injury that doesn't help to work things out unless i can seen what i should be doing. Please share it. candybarrart@live.co.uk my email.
guys, don't bother asking her to share any "diet chart" because she is absolutely BS'ing you. notice she hasn't replied?? her mom never HAD ckd or her mom has the kidneys of a bear
Awesome. We have to be our own advocate and do the research. I went from 51 to 73 in three weeks. My goal is over 100 at my next check up in three month.
CKF took my mom at 48 and it took my bother at 38....both had hypertension that lead to their renal failure. My mother only has two children, so I am the last surviving member of my immediate family. I had my first child at 36 back in 2017 and I am now 40years old....only by God's grace. But now I am really serious about changing my mindset and diet so that my quality of life is better from here on out; I want to watch my daughter grow up.
@@venicebeachsurfer my brother did not have any problems with high blood pressure in his teens, 20s and early 30s. So how he got it is beyond me. One night, his feet began to swell and he had shortness of breath (which I know from caring for my mom was fluid building up in the lungs) and when the paramedics arrived, his bp was like 200/180. He was hospitalized in March of 2013 for about 2weeks and then released, he died 4months later. His death certificate read chronic kidney failure and a ruptured aorta .
That’s great you are worry free..... you are a great example... my sister who is a nurse at one point was saying diabetes and kidney disease... can’t be reversed... it is so encouraging to hear people like you who is reversing your Kidney disease... you are a great example ..... just proves our bodies are always looking to be in a state of Good health.... it’s amazing to hear your story...
I think a lot of the conflict with reversing kidney disease comes from the fact that you can not cure it or fix the damage. My kidneys are just as damaged today at Stage 3 as they were when I was first diagnosed. I believe most don't see the difference between physically repairing kidneys (not possible) and learning to reduce the burden placed on your kidneys so that they can better keep up with you (very possible). I will have to stick to my diet for the rest of my life - but that is no problem and well worth it to live without any symptoms. I'm actually healthier than I have been in over 20 years!
@@DADVICETV I used to think you couldn't reverse kidney damage, as did all my friends/family and doctor. However, I am living, breathing proof it's possible. Went from 5% function in 2017 to 20% in 2021. Fact, Monday we are removing the catheter.
@Shorts vlogs I'm not a doctor. I can only share what I did, it may not work for you. All I can say is keep your diet as clean and pure as possible, no fast food, no frozen boxed dinners, cut back on sauces, dips, junk food period. Give your kidneys less to filter, keep tabs with your doctor, get your blood results, build a chart, a graph of progress. Keep your fluid in take low, avoid salt sodium salt and other sodiums and salts. Keep it simple, avoid salts. Read labels find out what is in food, follow your treatment. Talk to your doctor, follow up with your blood work, avoid salts and sodiums. Yes I said that twice to make a point, follow up with your doctor, blood labs and avoid salts and sodium.
Just been diagnosed with stage 5 CKD and I only have 1 kidney, this video and all the comments are giving me great hope today I am starting no meat diet and hoping for the best I am already an active person so here's to giving it my best, thank you for the video!
Check out the videos with Dr Ro - they are under the live tab on the channel. Make sure your blood pressure is controlled and check for protein in your urine. Stay active, work with your doctor, and eat a heart healthy diet! I’m coming up in 6 years since diagnosis and doing great! No dialysis or transplant here.
I am 5’8” age 62. Weight is 140. BP always been lowish 11/80. Never smoked never drank. Married young straight from high school grad to mother no party years. Got cancer at age 42. Survived but had horrible radiation damage to trigeminal ganglion. Am legally blind and lost all teeth. Now this early kidney disease. Up in Canada we have no choice about doctor. Most people have no doctor. Ontario health used to be good but not anymore.
You need a great dr. YOU DIDNT HAVE ONE !!!! And it saved your life the fact that YOU DID THE RESEARCH. YOU did your OWN homework!! Finding a “great dr would be a freaking miracle and I don’t have the insurance . I’ll go to Dr utube a Dr AINT gonna tell me what YOU just did. Thankyou so much !!
Hi am dr jain Nephrologists in Burlingame ca I 100 percent agree with your talk and I have several patient referred for dialysis and they instead improved for all the 8 steps which I strictly follow in my practice it’s gratifying to see patients improving in the right direction no body wants to get dialysis if they have an option I will share your video with other patients as it speaks my mind kudos to you Excellent talk I had this patient since the beginning g do what’s right for the patient
Thank you, I was told I had CKD after getting some blood work done at the hospital. I'm still really scared for my future as I'm 31. You've given me faith in myself. I'm gonna fight as hard as i can.
@nicholassmith2223 We are on the same boat. Im also just 31y.o I just got diagnosed this month and just started dialysis. Keep fighting ! We can do it!
My kidney is very proud of me...I took good care of my kidney, my life saver.. I'm 63 my gfr is 91 my createnin is 0.51. Great videos Jim, keep the good work.. 🙏👌👍❤️
Best 16 minutes that I've ever spent. Thank you for the information. The last 5 years I've degraded physically due to numerous back problems. Scolios, high grade spinal stenosis, 3 bulging discs, 2 discs with no cartilage, causing the upper disc to permanently slip below the lower disc. Because of the excruciating pain I experience 24-7, exercise and motion in general, have been greatly reduced. I saw a surgeon 2 weeks ago and he said that I had the worst case of spinal stenosis that he has ever seen. He showed me the MRI and how my nerve core in the spine is completely compressed on the bottom discs. Recently, I have started having swelling and numbness in my legs and feet. It all happened very suddenly. The back problems I've had all my life. The medical industrial complex has become a joke since it was taken over by the government and I don't trust ANY doctors. I have a lot of research to do, but thanks to you, I know where to start. Cheers, Frank
Excaliber, I can relate to every single one of your back problems and I know it’s getting worse all the time. My sister was treated for her scoliosis when she was young but I wasn’t, probably because I was born with a rare birth defect and that was the only thing the doctors focused on, ignoring everything else. My scoliosis is so bad that I have Levoscoliosis AND Dextroscoliosis, meaning it’s like an S curving in BOTH directions. I’m 63 and I feel like I’m completely falling apart. I barely get ANY sleep because I’m in pain, even though I’m taking pain meds which I honestly wish I had never been given. It’s impossible to function without sleep! The pain meds are most likely causing more harm than good and I HAVE cut down a lot but not completely because I’m in so much pain. Also, I went cold turkey off Cymbalta (EVIL DRUG!) about 4 months ago but I know I’m STILL going through horrible withdrawals from it. There’s no way taper off the lowest dose (20 mg) without opening the capsules and counting the tiny little beads which a lot of people are actually doing. I didn’t think I’d have the patience or steady hand to do that so I just quit and I’m suffering bad. I HATE doctors and don’t trust them although my family doc is very anti pharmaceutical and he’s not afraid to say it. He’s also a farmer 😂. I DID NOT get a Covid vaccine and neither did he. But I JUST realized, after looking over some of my test results from a few months ago, that my eGGR was 47 and my doctor never even said anything about it 😡!! I was actually seeing his young physician assistant at the time so I’m gonna give him the benefit of the doubt for now because she didn’t catch it. I wish I had known 20 years ago what I know now, about doctors, Rx drugs, and so much more that I’ve learned in the last 10-15 years. I believe my whole life would be different now. I also have chronic Lyme disease which was misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia for years so I never recovered from that, even after long term IV antibiotics. I hope you’re doing better. I’m going to try changing my diet and doing some of the other things suggested in this video. Good luck to you.
you are hell of a sincere and tough guy. I did the same with my high cholesterol levels and was asked to take statins and did drastic reduction in 45 days only with right diet and calories reduction.
Since December 2019 I was 99kg and went down to 86.8kg but I am still losing. I listen to music. Chatting with my kids to relax and stop panic attacks with stress.
Hi there. I'm from Botswana. I can't tell you how grateful I am for running into this video. My husband has sickle cell anemia, and just got diagnosed with CKD. I was so worried. But after watching a couple of your videos, I have so much hope. Unfortunately we don't have as many food options as as you, but I'm slowly trying to adjust best as I can for him. Thank you so much 🙏🙏
Sego , I am from Botswana too and friend has been suffering from kidney failure since 3 years ago and I am living in the Uk, she can't find a doner and is on dialysis, hopefully anyone reading this can direct us to the right channels to help fight this. This video is equally helpful
Just focus on fresh fruit & vegetables, & much of it raw for good enzyme provision. You don’t need the fake highly processed vegan ‘meat’ products. There is plenty of protein in veg, beans, etc. but it’s protein (amino acids) that are much easier for the body & kidneys to process. Fruits, like lemon, grapes, melon, watermelon, etc are very astringent & cleansing for the kidneys. You might find ‘Reverse Kidney Disease’ by Yaw Boateng, helpful.
Hi! I love your advices specialy the one you said that you have to set a goal on the stage of your ckd to make it lower!2 months ago my gfr is 48% .After my diets now it became 72%! This year my target is to get 100% of my kidney function! I do not lose hope and I know I will survive this ckd without having dialysis and transplant in my entire life!!im so positive!!
PERFECT attitude!!!!! And congrats on making changes and improving your kidney function!! Too many doctors fail to inspire patients to make changes to improve their overall health and kidney function - but it can be done! Setting goals is a great way to be motivated and measure your success. Fantastic job and good luck at continuing to improve!
No pork and beef just vegetables and fruits,fish and chicken breast twice a week.Super less salt .But most of the time just vegetables.I have breakfast and lunch together at 11:00 in the morning(rice,vegetables and sometimes fish or chicken breast .I make sure that I will just eat 35grams total of protein a day.I have fruits as my snack at 2:30 in the after noon and just light meal like salads and just vegetables before 6:00 in the evening..end of the meal for that day.Thats my everyday meal schedule.In just 3 months I lost 22 lbs!thats the thing I like the most!!it is so challenging,specially when I get to know the results of my blood test.If im not satisfied..I try another diet and set another goal.To keep all in balance.good luck
Thanks for sharing your diet! I found out today my level is at 47. Dr said since I didn't l drink enough water I MUST intake more. I have a follow up in two weeks but I'm changing my eating habits and she's Keen to that as well! I'm diabetic and have high BP... diabetes is controlled but BP needs a little more work. I'm not letting this get to me. I refuse to be on dialysis or have a transplant. Thanks @Dadvice for your videos!
Thank you, buddy. Your advice will be a great support to all CKD patients. In my case, it was detected seven years back and I am still going steady with controlled BP/sugar, food habits, etc. Thank you!
Great video! Totally agree. A few things that helped me big time were the following: nettle seed tincture extract - 5ml - 3x/day, astragalus 2000-3000mg raw herb per day, Rehmannia six formula 2 caps 3x/day, nattokinase 100mg/day, nettle leaf tea 2 cups per day, and 2000mg cordyceps mushroom fruiting body (not mycelium). It took 4-5 months but now I am 100% back to normal from borderline stage 3. I am kidney disease free now. My gfr basically doubled and creatinine levels dropped dramatically. Protein and blood in urine disappeared. Current creatinine score is 0.9, and gfr is 126. 35 year old Male.
@Dan Stokes several sources. I got the rehmannia six from Dragon Herbs, Nattokinase from AOR, Cordyceps from Harmonic Arts, Nettle seed tincture I got from a herbalist on vancouver island (Ravensong Herbals), nettle leaf tea I got in a health food store. Astragalus I got from New Earth Organics. Of these I believe the nettle leaf and nettle seed tincture as well as the Rehmannia six made the biggest difference.
I love your refreshing message, which is the exact opposite of the usual mainstream health advice that we are constantly being force-fed today by the medical profession. Advanced liver disease is completely reversable they say, as is Type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome [insulin resistance], same with leaky gut syndrome, cardiovascular disease and a raft of other common conditions affecting a large percentage of the Western population today. However kidney disease is notably treated quite differently, and once the damage is done then there is no going back we are told; once your kidney function has declined to a certain level then your ONLY choices are dialysis/transplant/death with absolutely no other treatment options available. Thank you Dadadvice for spreading this seldom-heard message!
I am in stage 4high severe kidney failure only .one kidney remove one due to kidney cancer l am on a renal diet my problem that I can not keep my iron level up I have to go often for IV iron treatments
I'm kidney patient last 15 years and I'm fitting every time with out medicine i try rann my kidney with tips and diet . And I'm happy to see you very good information about kidney disease .u r superb
I’m a RN and have worked in dialysis for years. This is all good advice except for the diet and supplement advice. You’re kidneys don’t digest protein for one. Tylenol doesn’t effect kidneys. Avoid all nsaids, stay well hydrated, low sodium intake for your BP and keep your sugars down.
Being RN means you also singd the pact not to heal people by complete. Tylenol might not affect the kidneys directly, but affects the lungs . You don't even help the people get out off KD where you tell them a lie that you help them . You just break there lungs too and prescribe peg to help them soften their stools, where you lie and say you help them but peg dehydrats the colon and therefore brings colon cancer . You should consider changing from lies to truth . You'll not find an excuse for following protocols knowing it's not the best for patients. You need to do what's right .
Hello, I would like to say that you are a great source of encouragement for all CKD patients worldwide! included my partner, who received a CKD 5 diagnosis last month and is currently receiving three times a week of dialysis treatment. I'm going to put all of your advice into action now! in particular with the diet plan. Thank you so much for the vids! God Bless!
My mother just recommended your channel. She is in stage 5 and has her doc pushing for dialysis. She has been following a plant based diet and lost 60 lbs and is still not on dialysis . Woohoo. My great grandmother and grandmother her side both had late stages when they found out they had it. My mom has had for about 10-15 years. I am 59 and eat salt like crazy and need to make a change. Thanks for the encouragement! I am starting with your fist vid and see you are here 5 years later. Thank you for helping my mom and me.
I never thought I would be writing to anyone because I was so depressedm but your video has got me gun ho and ready to fight. Thank you for your encouraging words, I will do as you have instructed since I am at stage 5 and my doctor has started me on a change of my diet and different medication. God Bless you so much. Thank y ou! Frances R. Smith
Thank you - and you can do this!!!! Make sure to check out the recent videos with Dr. Rosansky and Jen Hernandez. We do live shows a few times a month and those are packed with the latest info to help.
I take care of my father. He's a diabetic. This guy is on point with everything he says. It's very important to get copies and keep track of your blood work. Most people don't. Big mistake.
Light meat choices fish, lamb, grassfed meats 6oz. Maximum a day , kidney beans good , increase water intake it keeps kidneys flushed. Also 10,000 IU +K2 ( I bought mine all in one I use Dr. Berg brand) magnesium and vitamin C, I also take Tudca first thing in the morning on empty stomach, and then Oxbile supplements, one after each mill twice a day.
thank you very much for this wonderful video. my friend had advanced stage kidney disease, he battled with it for months and was able to overcome it. he documented his experience and cure he used to overcome it on medium . Thank God he is doing fine now and healthy. To anybody still having challenges with kidney disease, I pray you overcome it.
Thankyou soo much my dads 50 now in few months his ceratanin atm is 7.5 ,doctors said to us to put him on the machine. M really sacred and don't know how that would go coz he's very weak and doesn't have much hemoglobin. I really wish whoever is fighting from this disease gets better soon. I would love to try this steps by you. It's really hard to see your loved ones suffering. God bless you everyone and have faith in him 💗
Hi, how is your dad. My father started at 9.5 creatinine level. It went down to 6.49 in just 25 days. We still havent scheduled him for dialysis as we want continue the diet for another month and see if there will be progress.
@@athiranair2279 stop eating red meat. Limit salt intake. Amas much as possible eat only vegestables and fruits. Can eat chicken meat and fish but moderation only. Then exercise.
You’re an inspiration! I’m in Stage 3b (38) and I’m going to follow your instructions and keep watching your channel, so hopefully I’ll be getting great results soon.
This gives me hope I've prayed everyday for something else i could do, my dad has kidney failure not sure what stage tomorrow is his drs appt. I need to know ive done everything possible to help him Your video gave me hope thank you. 🙏
Which medication is a PPI? PPIs include heavily marketed and familiar brand-name drugs like Prevacid (lansoprazole), Prilosec (omeprazole), and Nexium (esomeprazole) are associated with serious side effects and increased dying from specific causes -- namely acute kidney injury, acute interstitial nephritis, incident chronic kidney disease, kidney disease progression, kidney failure. . .characterized by too little urine leaving the body, fatigue and swelling in the legs and ankles
Hi Mr James I got diagnosed with kidney failure 2019 I'm 41 year old 3 kids and I'm on dialysis. I just started a page like u about my experience so with all this kidney failure stuff Its new to me but I got faith and u so right life had change for me a lot of things I did I could not do anymore. My mom die 6 year ago on dialysis. I'm a scar but I no I can do this and this is the first time I seen ur videos u give me so much hope. PLEASE keep up the good work and the support you give us.
Wonderful series for people whom the doctors disillusion with just one sentence. Truly inspirational......sincere prayers that we experience the truth in it.
Dear Mr James, We love you and pray for your health happiness prosperity and long life. You're a very great man. We are learning a lot from your wonderful 63 videos on kidney health. Thank you very much. Hameed Jilani. 19.3.2020. Age 84 Lahore.Pakistan.
My mum has CKD, heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, arthritis & neuropathy. She recently had a heart attack & was told she would have to wait a while for her dialysis. The other worrisome part is that her sugar levels have not been stable; sometimes they are very high & at times she gets into hypoglycemia even when she is sleeping. Thank you for the information you are sharing with us because am sure many lives will change including my mother's especially now that am nursing her from my home it will be easy to apply all this information Thanks once more.
same me !..daily my food 01 drink cinnamon 02 eat vegetable not dark green..cabbage 03 green tea 04 No protein 05 No supplementary 06 zero SUGAR Now I can sleep well.Main 🥰🥰 point if we hate sugar and cab 100 percent..we happy
My blood pressure was 126/154 I went to the ER and they told me to get new blood pressure cup. I came home googled it and was told by a Dr in England that I had CKD that was March 7 and the earliest I can get an appointment with a kidney specialist is Dec 7th
This is just great advice from a guy who has walked the walk. I have a lot of problems from diabetes including eye disease and mild heart failure. Kidney problems the latest challenge. Doctors are great but their instinct is to prescribe more and more drugs. Alongside the Doctor’s advice we must help ourselves to get healthy. The advice on this channel is priceless. Thank you.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!! ❤💕 I knew there had to be another way and those 3 options are exactly what they gave my mom. She is so scared. They told her if she doesn't do dialysis she will die in weeks, I refuse to believe that, and then found you. I am praying, and we will aggressively fight this together! Thank you.
Do the dialysis. Otherwise fluid will continue to build from the ankles, to the legs, up to the torso, right up to the lungs and heart and drown the person. Can’t breathe. Heart muscle fails too, bringing on heart failure as well as kidney failure and lung failure.
My mom has kidney disease and after she caught and fought Covid now they are saying get her on the transplant list in case and that dialysis is a possibility. Her doctor is praying that her numbers go back to a baseline but gave all the what ifs. I’m worried honestly but I’m glad i found your channel.
Your words alone carries a healing and If your advise is followed ,CKD God willing will be gone. Thank you very much sir. You have lifted my hope. I would like to see the dietary options for kidney cyst.
I am so grateful to God for you James🙏🙏🙏...your advice are very helpful. I am so privilege finding your channel with that much useful, trustful n helpful information for kidney disease patients. Thank you for being the evidence of surviving stage 5 ckd. Your advice is a direction of hope for those who are currently having kidney disease like me. Once again Thank you so so very much Kidney Coach n Warrior. May God bless n healed you in Jesus Name, as well as everyone who subscribe to your channel having the disease to follow your instructions on how to beat kidney disease 🙏🙏🙏. Amen
Hi James my son has lupus but now dr are doing dialysis due to kidney labs are very high .gfr is 17 .my son is 22 years old only .pls give me some advise thanks
Thank you so much James you give me hope to live because of am stage5 CKD You,re such an angel guiding us to live / i like reading your Dadvice T.V thank you james,,,,
I have started taking 500 mgs of Cranberry caps. Now I'm up to 47 on my GFR. I haven't been that high in a long time. 😊 When I was taken to the hospital, my GFR was 15. No doctor had caught that I only had use of one kidney.
Please tell your diet sue, my mothers gfr is 4 . I really need your help.. How should I manage it.. My mind has stopped working I am very afraid what shall I do
@@eboninoelle08 I don’t remember off the top of head which company it was but I drank over 1000$ worth of this tea but don’t boil all the quality of it out of the leaves, I did a slow process on low heat. Both China and South Korea have a clinical trail on it
I found you when I was first diagnosed in 2019 with Stage 4. In Aug 2021 I had pneumonia and didnt know it, it put me in kidney failure, I had to get on dialysis. Got up to a 15 and my doc took me off Sept 2022. Now, Im back at an 8. I assume due to being prescriped the wrong meds and uncontrolled bp. Im rewatching this to remind me of hope! I dont want to go back on dialysis. I have a better understanding of what went wrong.
Wonderfully inspiring. Thank you for the encouraging video. I'm dropping weight now. Using calorie counting, intermittent fasting, and selective food intake. Onward !!!
43 year old man here. I went to a clinic after noticing I was urinating more at night and they did a blood test, after which theysaid I had proteinuria and hematuria and told me to see a urologist. Also they checked my heart and said I had hyperlipidemia and hypertension and to see a cardiologist, and put me on high blood pressure medication. They said I was negative for diabetes which is at least one good thing. I can't say for certain that I'll be diagnosed with CKD however I want to prepare myself now in case that is what they find. Thanks for your helpful advice. The Kidney disease community is very supportive and caring which I greatly appreciate. I cut out all junk food, fast food and processed food from the grocery store. I'd like to find a list of things to buy from the grocery store every time I go. You're right that being proactive is extremely important.
Thank you so much for this video. I am currently on dialysis and I want to get off of course. I am 44 year old that recently discovered I have lupus. My creatinine is about 5 right now and I've been doing dialysis for almost 2 months. I have hope that my creatinine will go down and my kidney function will return.
Thank you for this… my nephrologist told me eleven years ago I had no hope and would be dead in two years. Not having hope is the worst thing. Take matters into your own hands, learn healing scriptures, learn about diet.
Great Video. One more important thing to add that you can work with dietitian to have your diet customized with no cost because all insurances cover this at 100% with no co-pay or co-insurance. You do not have to meet your deductible to see a dietitian if you have Chronic Kidney disease, Diabetes or over weight/obesity. All you have to do is ask your doctor to refer you to a Registered Dietitian.
My 16 year old son has just been diagnosed with CKD about 2 month ago. Currently on Dialysis. I feel very down now...so sad for my son situation. I really hope my son can recover even just a bit. Thank you for your info, i really appreciated
Keep hoping! I helped my mother improve functionality by cleaning her diet. Limiting animal protein with occasional organic chicken or fish. Doc was surprised to see improvement from 13 to 22 functionality in less than 2 mths. Unfortunately she went back to old unhealthy eating habits. Now she's struggling with low bp due to hemodialysis. I believe she could have avoided stage 5 if she'd nourished her body healthfully. Good luck! 🙏🙏
You're awesome. I'm so happy for you and that you're doing so well. You are just what the doctors should be ordering. Someone who has been through the experience has done the research and genuinely wants to be of service to those who need it.😇 Great stuff 👍 ❤🇬🇧
Thank you - and you are very lucky to find out at such an early stage. A lot of what I discuss is from my journey from stage 5 to 4 then up to 3b - many of the restrictions I had at stage 4 or 5 won't apply to stage 2. My recommendation is to work with a renal dietitian - they will help you understand your labs and learn how to adjust your diet based on them. you'll also be so much happier and not over-restricting food. Keep an eye on your blood pressure and blood sugar - keep those under control. Do you know the underlying cause of your kidney damage? You'll want to work with your doctors to try and figure that out so you can manage it to stop further damage. Even without knowing your history, you have a very good chance of living an amazing life with CKD just from finding out so early and starting to look for ways to manage it. You're certainly on the right track!
@@DADVICETV Thank you for responding!! Unfortunately, my nephrologist doesn't really seem to know what is causing my kidney disease and she doesn't wan't to put me through unnecessary tests at this point. It's kind of discouraging not to know, but I understand and appreciate her not wanting her to do that, especially if everything is stable. All I can do is follow these steps, continue to do check ups, and be on top of this! Thank you for your advice!
Thanks for sharing this ! My husband has kidney failure, diabetes, heart disease and other health problems. It will be hard for him not to eat his meat every day, but I will encourage him to make some changes. Thanks again!
As a man of 59 with 37 of them with renal failure I found your post highly interesting and positive I have had 3 transplants 2 worked last one stable and currently have 4 kidneys inside my body After watching your post i figured i will try out all your methods from tomorrow Hopefully it will protect my last graft for as long as possible Thank you again you are a very likable man good luck and love to you and all other renal patients x
GREAT INFO, thank you!! Step 1: Get a good doctor Step 2: Control your blood pressure and diabetes Step 3: **Monitor your bloodwork, get copy of results Step 4: Modify your diet (watch protein, sodium, potassium, phospherous). Protein=try plant based. Step 5: Be aware of available supplements instead of prescriptions. Step 6: Be active even walking, try 10,000 steps a day (5 miles). No lifting weights or high intensity. Step 7: Lose weight Step 8: Manage stress
Thank you very much for this video. I am stage 4 and my doctor did not offer me any help like you did. I had to search the internet and gradually understood whai I should do. Your video is the conclusion. Thank you!
My husband was just told this morning that his GFR is 13. Yesterday it was 18, the day before that it was 25. I’m here with him at the hospital. Waiting to see if his platelets have come up so he can have a kidney biopsy done. There have been many tears cried today! This happened so fast!
I know it is scary and heartbreaking, but such a quick drop is most likely an AKI (temporary kidney injury). His doctors should be able to determine the cause and address it, which would bring his kidney function up to where it was. This was my problem when I was GFR 8 - I had an AKI on top of CKD. That was just over 5 years ago and I have made so much progress since then. I hope the same for your husband. He will need you to help him live a heart healthy kidney friendly lifestyle after this. Staying properly hydrated, eating healthy, watching sodium, and giving up any bad habits he may have (such as smoking). Getting and keeping his blood pressure under control will also be important. Check out the videos with Dr. Rosansky - he is a well know Nephrologist who is on here every month sharing tips and advice.
@@DADVICETV Hello TV. When my doc told me several months ago that I needed to go on dialysis immediately (EXACTLY per the open of your vid) I told him to give me time. And I did nothing. The latest GFR is 10....A slow progression. Yeah, I'm in shock. My problem was two fold. I have had a thing called interstitial cystitis (I have a book on Amazon about that.I founded a support group of 'armchair urologists' and we learned a LOT from each other!) for the last 40 years. And only one good kidney. So....lousy readings has always been there. I thought this was more of the same. I am diabetic, just over the line now. I'm 67. To date my only symptom is fatigue. Feeling pretty good, actually. I had a growth, no-cancer, in the bladder which may have kinda stopped up the ureter (so the theory goes) which swelled up and damaged the kidney. It has been going on for some time before my docs got all their ducks in a row, removed the growth, and put in a stint from the kidney to the bladder. It was less than a week since the stint was removed that I had the last test. I'm hoping that GFR of 10 was an artifact. Long story short your vid has given me hope. NOW I intend to get busy on your suggestions. How I got here was different from you, but at some point we merged and your vid is crazy right on. Thank you for giving hope! Your plumbing challenged fan, Norm
Great video!!!! Super informative. My mom is in stage 4 ckd. Super worried but this video brings me a lot of hope!!! I appreciate your story and your efforts to share it

hello sir james. just want to know, what did you do when your urine stop?
What kind of supplements?
Bad advice. You're leading people in error. Sure, diet and exercise and lifestyle are important, but don't tell people to not get dialysis. It's a life or death situation, especially if you're stage 4 or stage 5. It's malpractice and morally and ethically wrong. Bad advice....
Love this! Recently diagnosed with Stage 3b CDK. Will be following you and learning!
What quality of life is left after spending all your time checking your body and staying on Strick diets? Life and living free is all the reward I need to take excellent care of my body.
33 yrs old. Stage 4 CKD. I was told there is no way to reverse this. My nephrologist informed me on 2/15/24 that my GFR was 17%. I was then scheduled for dialysis class. That same day I removed all meat from my diet and had very little dairy. I completed blood work on 2/27/24. At my next appointment 2/29/24 my GFR was 22%. SWITCHING WORKED!!! I refused to accept dialysis as a condition for me. I knew that there had to be something I could do. I’m thankful that I had enough time to figure out alternatives. 22% is better but still obviously dangerously low. If you’re reading this and still have time, CHANGE YOUR LIFE! SAVE YOUR LIFE! No one can save you but you! I don’t know you but I am rooting for you ❤️
You're very nice. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your advice. My GFR is 24, Stage 4 CKD after years of Stage 3B. I hope I can do it, like you do❤
Congratulations.. can you please share more tips on what helped you.
I've watched videos where people have completely reversed the disease eating a low carb keto diet with more protein. It's individual. If a person is sensitive to oxalates, a low protein diet with high veg will make it worse
@@AzzZul64 how much is your creatinine?
Yesss!!! I did it too. After 5 years of dialysis I said NO MORE!!! I’ve been off dialysis 2 years now. I fought back!
Good to hear
My Mom died on dialysis.... I read that once seniors are put on dialysis they don't last long. Very Sad...... They told her if she went off of dialysis she would die, they used fear to keep her as a cash cow.... So glad you set yourself free... God bless you !
You mean you were able to restore kidney function?
did you stop dialysis based on doctor's advice? or you stop on your own
PLEASE TELL US HOW YOU DID IT
Six months ago I was stage three. I did what you said and: I can't know exactly when it happened, but I got my lab results back yesterday: I'm cured! THANK YOU. MAN.
It's great that your kidney labs are normal - congrats. It is very likely you had what is known as an AKI - which is a kidney injury that can recover with time. Stick with living a healthy lifestyle and following your health care team's guidance - the healthy choices made today have a massive payout down the road.
How
@Potroastation what do you mean when you say cured?
@@thobekasilika442 went from 32% function to 88%. anything above 80% is not failing.
What are your symptoms?
I have a 6th thing:
Have a positive attitude! 18 years ago I was supposed to DIE from severe acute pancreatitis from 22,000 level triglycerides! All of my organs were failing and I was given 24 to 48 hours to live! The pain was so excruciating that my screams were disturbing the rest of the hospital so they put in a medically induced coma and had my husband call my parents to fly in and see me before I died. Well a miracle happened and I awoke from my "permanent" vegetative state 30 days later! And made even the doctors say the M word...lol. I was on dialysis for 4 weeks post coma, told was going to be put "on the list" 🤯 one day...went to the doc for blood test and back to diagnosis the next day and at check in the nurse looked at me funny and asked me why I was there... 🤨 so I asked her why do you think I'm here for an oil change? She said, no...your kidneys are completely HEALED! YOU NO LONGER NEED DIALYSIS! ANOTHER MIRACLE!!! THANK YOU LORD!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glory be to God Amen
Thank you Jesus for what he has done for you. God is truly a miracle working God. I thank the Lord for saving your life🙏🏾💕
Amen,God Is Good!

How is your son now?
I'm curious how he's doing as well. I'm 38 but 3 years ago I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. One of the chemo I was on did a number to my kidneys as well. Currently in stage 3.

He's currently in NED and other than his kidney disease stage 4, he's just living life as a normal twenty-two-year-old yesterday was his birthday! They always told us that years down the line he would probably get secondary cancers do the radiation and possible heart issues however this kidney thing has been devastating.
I had acute renal failure. After 8 months on dialysis, my kidney function returned I was taken off dialysis. It's been 8 years now and my kidney function is still stable
Would you please share what you did.
Would love to hear how you acheived this
sounds like giving the kidney a break helped it.
Congratulations please share with me what worked for you
Whats your gfr?and are you still off dialysis
Just diagnosed, and very scared. You have given me hope. I’m 82, but not ready to give up! Thank you!
Check out the videos under the LIVE tab with Dr Rosansky - at 82, your kidney health will most likely be better than you think. Keep an eye on your blood pressure (keep it controlled), stay active, and focus on living a heart-healthy lifestyle. If you have protein leaking in your urine, talk to your doctor about medications to reduce or eliminate that. If you have no protein leaking - that is awesome!
Don’t give up! You keep going and fight illness off! You can do it!
If you take non steroidal anti inflammation drugs (like ibuprofen, advil, meloxicam, etc), you might be helped by stopping them. If your blood pressure is high, see your doctor and press them to help you get it as close as possible to normal (120/80). Are you diabetic? If yes, you need to make a serious effort to keep your blood sugar normal (such as avoiding food high in sugar or food high in carbohydrates).
Keep fighting friend! drink more water. Take teas like ginger, dandelion . Go mainly fruiterian and vegan.. 0 procedes and bread . Do green juices ocassionslly eat meat
@@ricebunnymoon4624Too much fruit is bad, either... fructose can get you a fatty liver. Also don't generalise about bread. You cannot compare the usual white bread with whole-grain bread.
Step 1: you need a great Dr.
Step 2 : control BP and Diabetis
Step 3: monitor blood work
Step 4: modify your diet
Eat something that put less stress on kidney
Step 5: be aware of medical suppliments
Step 6: Be active (walking helps, 10,000 steps a day)
Step 7: manage weight
Step 8: manage stress

@@hecatesdaughter2207 what about your diet? And thanks for your response I pray you have positive results with your other medical issues too 🙏🏾
Thank you, Dad Vice. I noticed (forgive me for this description of the alert of my situation) foam in my urine. I didn’t know what that meant . . . Plus, my back itched like crazy . . . I didn’t know what THAT meant, until Dr. Mandell posted an explanation of kidney problems on RUclips. So, of course, I started researching kidney disease for myself. Well, beloved Dad vice, I changed my diet . . . I still eat a Keto diet with intermittent fasting . . . But, I have reduced the amount of meat and fish I had been consuming and have increased my plant-based powders and whole veggies into my diet. After doing that for a couple of weeks, the foam and bubbling is gone! My back is no longer itching and I’m not urgently having to go the bathroom every half an hour or 45 minutes. I, now, can sleep for hours . . . Thank You, LORD Jesus . . . And am regaining strength. For this 75 year old woman, THAT is VERY good news!!!

@Viper-ms9eg Please provide source for this? We see protienuria in the hospital with kidney disease. Too much is obviously going to build up, right?
@Viper-ms9eg , that isn't true. Too much protein, especially animal protein is harder on the kidneys. Everything in moderation. It's coming from those that are experts in their field of discipline and have wealth of experience, and knowledge. Dr Gundry, a cardiologist suggests to stay under 20g, if one wants longevity.

My Daughter passed away in March 2022. After her passing my health took a turn for the worse. I am diabetic, after she passed my blood sugar levels were out of control. A1C has been as high as 14+. I have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure, & my kidney function is low 36% and that is the function in both kidneys. I have had urinary tract infection, bladder and kidney infection. I take antibiotics and 3-4 days after I finish my antibiotics the infection is back. I have been hospitalized for mersa , pancreatitis, kidney stones and infections over the past year. I feel extremely tired, difficulty sleeping, nauseous after eating. I am seeing a nephrologist, urologist, and now a cardiologist. Thank you for ll your Information.
Please look into something for parasites, every sickness is a parasite. And I don't understand why they use the term because, of it sounds bad. The flu is a parasite and the treatment is out there. I take a product called, intestinal edge. It natural and just for parasites. I will pray for you.
My mom was hospitalized for 18 days and now needs dialysis 2-3 times a week- she’s living with me now and I’m not exactly sure how to take care of her- I got zero nutrition information from her damn hospital. All everybody can say is that this is irreversible. I’ve looked all over web for info and some hope. So far you’re the only one who’s given me any. You are quality, my friend. Thank you so much!!
What about if you're a diabetic as well
@Héctor Ramírez can u please guide me if a patient on dialysis nd she is shugur patient also then what can she eat or any diet plan for low creatinine?
@Héctor Ramírez thanks please
My mother us a victim but doctors told her to stop taking milk,,thx
coconut water noooooooo, too much potassium
@Héctor Ramírez My Drs as well don not talk to me about diet too much. I tell them I do eat healthy and then question why is this happening?? These videos help. You do not realize when stress rises that it's food... Problem is getting weak comes very rapidly.. Thank you. Madeleine Ps I am on the verge of kidney and bladder problems.
Thanks for the video brother. I did 2.5 years dialysis to a kidney transplant and am now rejecting the transplant after 4 years. I'm in Ontario and doctors are very few and far between, but I'm going to try your advice, and am hoping for the best.
I have 3 kids and a wife that is no help...at all. As I watch this video I'm sitting in a room the my wife has packed to the brim and am trying turn it into my daughter's room while she complains the entire time; so when you hit the last step I laughed out loud, took 3 deep breaths and am now gonna go for a walk. God bless everyone.
My dad got diagnosed with kidney failure. He only had 10% of kidney function. Literally just two days ago. When he gets home we are making changes to his diet and exercise. Non stop crying. He almost died. I’m looking forward to this journey of regaining his kidney function. Going to educate and watch your videos for help.
How is you dad now ?
My father is dying because of kidney failure
He has a diet but we don't knowbhow to reverse it

I just got the news I’m EGFR 60.
My doctor has no idea what kind of patient I am. I went cold turkey on meat, sugar and carbs. started fasting to lose weight and get BMi to just below normal.
I will test blood again when bmi hits target.
My diet is absolute strict perfect. Funny thing is a shot of garlic, olive oil and vinegar makes the oatmeal I after that taste like lobster bisque.
how are you now
I hope my mother will recover from her stage 3 kidney disease, just hoping and pray and I'll do my best to help her fight that CKD, because I love her so much.

Can she get a kidney transplant?
Stage 3 isn't too far down the track, depending on the type of course.
You really need a diet that helps.
Some exercise is good but the diet is very important, along with sleep and managing stress.
Easier said than done but very possible.
Went from stage 4 to stage 2 in 6 months. A good primary care physician makes a great difference. I had hypertension that was very well controlled but unknown to me I was diabetic. Surprised Dr by really following my diabetic regimen was able to lose weight and get off insulin. Work in my garden to relieve stress and make sure the Dr and I are on top of my labs. You really have to be motivated but it's worth it. Glad you are speaking out on this to help others.
Hello, how are you doing by now?
Hope all great 🙏please what is your meds for your hypertension
Hello Sir , I am from India , I am diagnosed with CKD 5 BCS of hypertension , now Dr. told me to do dialysis but I don't want to go through that , I am very positive and lose my weight as well but I am not able to control my stress ,any suggestions from you
I am a stage 5 CKD patient ,can I reverse back my CKD ?
Can u pls suggest to me your doctor's name so I can consult with him
I will fight back
I am just diagnosed CKD 4 and my mom is CKD 5.. Your video gave me inspiration and i am not giving up. I am 38 with a 10 months old kid.
I am thankful for God leading me to this video! I am pre diabetic, my god son is about 400+ lbs. A good friend just told me she let them take out both of her kidneys. I don't know how to share with her that she didn't have to let them take them out.. smh smh smh
This is a blessing for so many people.
You’ve encouraged me so much with your videos and in just a couple of months, I went from a GFR of 34 to 60 which is pretty normal for me considering I’m 66 and have had ckd for over a decade. Thanks again!
Wow, that's amazing. May I ask what steps you took to achieve this?
Congrats, how you gave done it? What are strategy you have taken? Could you please write it detail please.
Thank you Sir for your great presentation.
now what is your gfr?
A glomerular flow rate of 60 is not normal. 60 is stage 2, 59 is stage 3a (kidney disease). It’s better than 34 though.
You have inspired me!! A few months ago I was diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease. I got scared and started researching. Now I’m inspired! Thank you for sharing your journey! I want to see you heal. I’m hearing positive messages now 😊
One of the greatest gifts you give is HOPE! Thank you
💕. Absolutely true! My mom was diagnosed with CKD, told she was near going on dialysis. We created a chart for her to record the quantity of sodium, protein, phosphorus, and potassium she consumed daily. It wasn't long before she had her kidneys functioning back up to 70% which was closer to her age range. Such am inspiration!
patricia beckman hi... wow thats awesome.. did she take any supplements or natural herbs? Or just stick on diet?
patricia beckman wow really?! My husband is in stage 5 CDK and his doctor wants to put him on dialysis ASAP and scheduled to do surgery to prepare him for PD dialysis while waiting a donor for a kidney transplant. I tried the same diet that you’ve done but it’s not working. My husband kidney function decreased from 15 to now 8, in 6 months. Is there anything else you have done beside the diet to increase the function of your moms kidney?
Plz share diet chart
Yes please could you share a diet chart. As i am newly diagnosed and i have a brain injury that doesn't help to work things out unless i can seen what i should be doing. Please share it. candybarrart@live.co.uk my email.
guys, don't bother asking her to share any "diet chart" because she is absolutely BS'ing you. notice she hasn't replied?? her mom never HAD ckd or her mom has the kidneys of a bear
Awesome. We have to be our own advocate and do the research. I went from 51 to 73 in three weeks. My goal is over 100 at my next check up in three month.
May I ask what you did for such improvement?
Please what did you do for such an improvement
Hi Felicia, did you do IF and/or keto? Tia 🙏
CKF took my mom at 48 and it took my bother at 38....both had hypertension that lead to their renal failure. My mother only has two children, so I am the last surviving member of my immediate family. I had my first child at 36 back in 2017 and I am now 40years old....only by God's grace. But now I am really serious about changing my mindset and diet so that my quality of life is better from here on out; I want to watch my daughter grow up.
I am curious how your brother, at such a young age got it. From hypertension only? No other issues? BP super high from teens? Sorry for your losses.
@@rhondapagan5759 thank you very much, sister.
@@venicebeachsurfer my brother did not have any problems with high blood pressure in his teens, 20s and early 30s. So how he got it is beyond me. One night, his feet began to swell and he had shortness of breath (which I know from caring for my mom was fluid building up in the lungs) and when the paramedics arrived, his bp was like 200/180. He was hospitalized in March of 2013 for about 2weeks and then released, he died 4months later. His death certificate read chronic kidney failure and a ruptured aorta .
@@rhondapagan5759 who is Dr. Umo?
That’s great you are worry free..... you are a great example... my sister who is a nurse at one point was saying diabetes and kidney disease... can’t be reversed... it is so encouraging to hear people like you who is reversing your Kidney disease... you are a great example ..... just proves our bodies are always looking to be in a state of Good health.... it’s amazing to hear your story...
I think a lot of the conflict with reversing kidney disease comes from the fact that you can not cure it or fix the damage. My kidneys are just as damaged today at Stage 3 as they were when I was first diagnosed.
I believe most don't see the difference between physically repairing kidneys (not possible) and learning to reduce the burden placed on your kidneys so that they can better keep up with you (very possible). I will have to stick to my diet for the rest of my life - but that is no problem and well worth it to live without any symptoms. I'm actually healthier than I have been in over 20 years!
@@DADVICETV I used to think you couldn't reverse kidney damage, as did all my friends/family and doctor. However, I am living, breathing proof it's possible. Went from 5% function in 2017 to 20% in 2021. Fact, Monday we are removing the catheter.
@Shorts vlogs Dialysis free and still improving
@Shorts vlogs I'm not a doctor. I can only share what I did, it may not work for you. All I can say is keep your diet as clean and pure as possible, no fast food, no frozen boxed dinners, cut back on sauces, dips, junk food period. Give your kidneys less to filter, keep tabs with your doctor, get your blood results, build a chart, a graph of progress. Keep your fluid in take low, avoid salt sodium salt and other sodiums and salts. Keep it simple, avoid salts.
Read labels find out what is in food, follow your treatment. Talk to your doctor, follow up with your blood work, avoid salts and sodiums. Yes I said that twice to make a point, follow up with your doctor, blood labs and avoid salts and sodium.

Great to hear. It's worth it to make some adjustments. Time to get even more serious with a kidney friendly diet.
Best 16 minutes that I've ever spent. Thank you for the information. The last 5 years I've degraded physically due to numerous back problems. Scolios, high grade spinal stenosis, 3 bulging discs, 2 discs with no cartilage, causing the upper disc to permanently slip below the lower disc. Because of the excruciating pain I experience 24-7, exercise and motion in general, have been greatly reduced. I saw a surgeon 2 weeks ago and he said that I had the worst case of spinal stenosis that he has ever seen. He showed me the MRI and how my nerve core in the spine is completely compressed on the bottom discs. Recently, I have started having swelling and numbness in my legs and feet. It all happened very suddenly. The back problems I've had all my life. The medical industrial complex has become a joke since it was taken over by the government and I don't trust ANY doctors. I have a lot of research to do, but thanks to you, I know where to start. Cheers, Frank
Hi.. do look into Aulora Pants with Kodenshi.. it helps to improve blood circulation for those who has limited capability to walk..
Excaliber, I can relate to every single one of your back problems and I know it’s getting worse all the time. My sister was treated for her scoliosis when she was young but I wasn’t, probably because I was born with a rare birth defect and that was the only thing the doctors focused on, ignoring everything else. My scoliosis is so bad that I have Levoscoliosis AND Dextroscoliosis, meaning it’s like an S curving in BOTH directions. I’m 63 and I feel like I’m completely falling apart. I barely get ANY sleep because I’m in pain, even though I’m taking pain meds which I honestly wish I had never been given. It’s impossible to function without sleep! The pain meds are most likely causing more harm than good and I HAVE cut down a lot but not completely because I’m in so much pain. Also, I went cold turkey off Cymbalta (EVIL DRUG!) about 4 months ago but I know I’m STILL going through horrible withdrawals from it. There’s no way taper off the lowest dose (20 mg) without opening the capsules and counting the tiny little beads which a lot of people are actually doing. I didn’t think I’d have the patience or steady hand to do that so I just quit and I’m suffering bad. I HATE doctors and don’t trust them although my family doc is very anti pharmaceutical and he’s not afraid to say it. He’s also a farmer 😂. I DID NOT get a Covid vaccine and neither did he. But I JUST realized, after looking over some of my test results from a few months ago, that my eGGR was 47 and my doctor never even said anything about it 😡!! I was actually seeing his young physician assistant at the time so I’m gonna give him the benefit of the doubt for now because she didn’t catch it. I wish I had known 20 years ago what I know now, about doctors, Rx drugs, and so much more that I’ve learned in the last 10-15 years. I believe my whole life would be different now. I also have chronic Lyme disease which was misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia for years so I never recovered from that, even after long term IV antibiotics. I hope you’re doing better. I’m going to try changing my diet and doing some of the other things suggested in this video. Good luck to you.

Get pasely leaves and coriander, give cranberry and blueberry juice, consume more vegetables
Just focus on fresh fruit & vegetables, & much of it raw for good enzyme provision. You don’t need the fake highly processed vegan ‘meat’ products. There is plenty of protein in veg, beans, etc. but it’s protein (amino acids) that are much easier for the body & kidneys to process. Fruits, like lemon, grapes, melon, watermelon, etc are very astringent & cleansing for the kidneys.
You might find ‘Reverse Kidney Disease’ by Yaw Boateng, helpful.
Exactly! I'm from Nigeria, and I have problems with food options, too.
I hope I can eat groundnuts, tiger nuts and dates.
Kindly help.
Hi! I love your advices specialy the one you said that you have to set a goal on the stage of your ckd to make it lower!2 months ago my gfr is 48% .After my diets now it became 72%! This year my target is to get 100% of my kidney function! I do not lose hope and I know I will survive this ckd without having dialysis and transplant in my entire life!!im so positive!!
PERFECT attitude!!!!! And congrats on making changes and improving your kidney function!! Too many doctors fail to inspire patients to make changes to improve their overall health and kidney function - but it can be done! Setting goals is a great way to be motivated and measure your success. Fantastic job and good luck at continuing to improve!
How did u do it...?
No pork and beef just vegetables and fruits,fish and chicken breast twice a week.Super less salt .But most of the time just vegetables.I have breakfast and lunch together at 11:00 in the morning(rice,vegetables and sometimes fish or chicken breast .I make sure that I will just eat 35grams total of protein a day.I have fruits as my snack at 2:30 in the after noon and just light meal like salads and just vegetables before 6:00 in the evening..end of the meal for that day.Thats my everyday meal schedule.In just 3 months I lost 22 lbs!thats the thing I like the most!!it is so challenging,specially when I get to know the results of my blood test.If im not satisfied..I try another diet and set another goal.To keep all in balance.good luck
Thanks for sharing your diet! I found out today my level is at 47. Dr said since I didn't l drink enough water I MUST intake more. I have a follow up in two weeks but I'm changing my eating habits and she's Keen to that as well! I'm diabetic and have high BP... diabetes is controlled but BP needs a little more work. I'm not letting this get to me. I refuse to be on dialysis or have a transplant. Thanks @Dadvice for your videos!

Thank you, buddy. Your advice will be a great support to all CKD patients. In my case, it was detected seven years back and I am still going steady with controlled BP/sugar, food habits, etc. Thank you!
God bless u am all the way for plant based food
Great video! Totally agree. A few things that helped me big time were the following: nettle seed tincture extract - 5ml - 3x/day, astragalus 2000-3000mg raw herb per day, Rehmannia six formula 2 caps 3x/day, nattokinase 100mg/day, nettle leaf tea 2 cups per day, and 2000mg cordyceps mushroom fruiting body (not mycelium). It took 4-5 months but now I am 100% back to normal from borderline stage 3. I am kidney disease free now. My gfr basically doubled and creatinine levels dropped dramatically. Protein and blood in urine disappeared. Current creatinine score is 0.9, and gfr is 126. 35 year old Male.
Can you tell me where you purchased your herbs
@Dan Stokes several sources. I got the rehmannia six from Dragon Herbs, Nattokinase from AOR, Cordyceps from Harmonic Arts, Nettle seed tincture I got from a herbalist on vancouver island (Ravensong Herbals), nettle leaf tea I got in a health food store. Astragalus I got from New Earth Organics.
Of these I believe the nettle leaf and nettle seed tincture as well as the Rehmannia six made the biggest difference.

I love your refreshing message, which is the exact opposite of the usual mainstream health advice that we are constantly being force-fed today by the medical profession. Advanced liver disease is completely reversable they say, as is Type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome [insulin resistance], same with leaky gut syndrome, cardiovascular disease and a raft of other common conditions affecting a large percentage of the Western population today. However kidney disease is notably treated quite differently, and once the damage is done then there is no going back we are told; once your kidney function has declined to a certain level then your ONLY choices are dialysis/transplant/death with absolutely no other treatment options available. Thank you Dadadvice for spreading this seldom-heard message!

How are you now?
Are u still alive?
I’m a RN and have worked in dialysis for years. This is all good advice except for the diet and supplement advice. You’re kidneys don’t digest protein for one. Tylenol doesn’t effect kidneys. Avoid all nsaids, stay well hydrated, low sodium intake for your BP and keep your sugars down.
sir are the one victim of ckd sir?
Protein excreted by the kidneys shows up in urine
Being RN means you also singd the pact not to heal people by complete. Tylenol might not affect the kidneys directly, but affects the lungs . You don't even help the people get out off KD where you tell them a lie that you help them . You just break there lungs too and prescribe peg to help them soften their stools, where you lie and say you help them but peg dehydrats the colon and therefore brings colon cancer .
You should consider changing from lies to truth . You'll not find an excuse for following protocols knowing it's not the best for patients. You need to do what's right .
Tylenol yes. Low sugar, low sodium. And drink water.
Animal proteins release creatinine when digested though so that increases your serum creatinine. Maybe that’s what he meant.
I’m so glad I saw this channel. My doctor said i only have 3 choices. I never knew there was a 4 Choice. Thank you for this channel.

Hi, how is your dad. My father started at 9.5 creatinine level. It went down to 6.49 in just 25 days. We still havent scheduled him for dialysis as we want continue the diet for another month and see if there will be progress.
@@kristianmarc1024 how did it went down..can u plz tell me
@@athiranair2279 stop eating red meat. Limit salt intake. Amas much as possible eat only vegestables and fruits. Can eat chicken meat and fish but moderation only. Then exercise.
You’re an inspiration! I’m in Stage 3b (38) and I’m going to follow your instructions and keep watching your channel, so hopefully I’ll be getting great results soon.
How are you now? Please tell. What did you do?
This gives me hope I've prayed everyday for something else i could do, my dad has kidney failure not sure what stage tomorrow is his drs appt. I need to know ive done everything possible to help him Your video gave me hope thank you. 🙏
Is he taking a PPI? His doctor had him on this for fifteen years. Killed him.
How’s your dad doing now?
Which medication is a PPI? PPIs include heavily marketed and familiar brand-name drugs like Prevacid (lansoprazole), Prilosec (omeprazole), and
Nexium (esomeprazole) are associated with serious side effects and increased dying from specific causes -- namely acute kidney injury,
acute interstitial nephritis, incident chronic kidney disease, kidney disease progression, kidney failure. . .characterized by too little urine leaving the body, fatigue and swelling in the legs and ankles

Wonderful series for people whom the doctors disillusion with just one sentence. Truly inspirational......sincere prayers that we experience the truth in it.
Dear Mr James,
We love you and pray for your health happiness prosperity and long life. You're a very great man. We are learning a lot from your wonderful 63 videos on kidney health.
Thank you very much.

How sweet
My mum has CKD, heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, arthritis & neuropathy. She recently had a heart attack & was told she would have to wait a while for her dialysis. The other worrisome part is that her sugar levels have not been stable; sometimes they are very high & at times she gets into hypoglycemia even when she is sleeping.
Thank you for the information you are sharing with us because am sure many lives will change including my mother's especially now that am nursing her from my home it will be easy to apply all this information
Thanks once more.
same me !..daily my food
01 drink cinnamon
02 eat vegetable not dark green..cabbage
03 green tea
04 No protein
05 No supplementary
06 zero SUGAR
Now I can sleep well.Main 🥰🥰 point if we hate sugar and cab 100 percent..we happy
My blood pressure was 126/154 I went to the ER and they told me to get new blood pressure cup.
I came home googled it and was told by a Dr in England that I had CKD that was March 7 and the earliest I can get an appointment with a kidney specialist is Dec 7th
Helped my mom with research a good book and her kidney failure reversed completely before she passe at 85.
This is just great advice from a guy who has walked the walk. I have a lot of problems from diabetes including eye disease and mild heart failure. Kidney problems the latest challenge. Doctors are great but their instinct is to prescribe more and more drugs. Alongside the Doctor’s advice we must help ourselves to get healthy. The advice on this channel is priceless. Thank you.
Thank you so much John for your support!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!! ❤💕 I knew there had to be another way and those 3 options are exactly what they gave my mom. She is so scared. They told her if she doesn't do dialysis she will die in weeks, I refuse to believe that, and then found you. I am praying, and we will aggressively fight this together! Thank you.
How is she doing ?
Do the dialysis. Otherwise fluid will continue to build from the ankles, to the legs, up to the torso, right up to the lungs and heart and drown the person. Can’t breathe. Heart muscle fails too, bringing on heart failure as well as kidney failure and lung failure.
How is she doing now?
@@Hello6914 you’re a breath of fresh air
@@iamhischosen3866
Nice to know. Thank you!
My mom has kidney disease and after she caught and fought Covid now they are saying get her on the transplant list in case and that dialysis is a possibility. Her doctor is praying that her numbers go back to a baseline but gave all the what ifs. I’m worried honestly but I’m glad i found your channel.
Your words alone carries a healing and If your advise is followed ,CKD God willing will be gone. Thank you very much sir. You have lifted my hope. I would like to see the dietary options for kidney cyst.
I am so grateful to God for you James🙏🙏🙏...your advice are very helpful. I am so privilege finding your channel with that much useful, trustful n helpful information for kidney disease patients.

Where to buy acacia fiber james plz send me one true shopee and i will pay thanks so much james
I have started taking 500 mgs of Cranberry caps. Now I'm up to 47 on my GFR. I haven't been that high in a long time. 😊 When I was taken to the hospital, my GFR was 15. No doctor had caught that I only had use of one kidney.
Please tell your diet sue, my mothers gfr is 4 . I really need your help.. How should I manage it.. My mind has stopped working I am very afraid what shall I do
Ace inhibitors much..?
Wow, my GFR is up to 49. That means my one kidney is cleaning all of me. It's a big deal to me !
He’s right you can beat it, I heard the dialysis, transplant and death speech as well, I beat it and it’s now 5 years later no problems
Never loose hope. Never. Miracles do exist, and God indeed does bless us if we do our part. 🙏🙏🙏
That’s awesome! What did you do?
@@eboninoelle08 Astragalus ordered straight from the China mountains, it’s what I used
@@TheBlackxice thank you! Can you tell me what site you order from?
@@eboninoelle08 I don’t remember off the top of head which company it was but I drank over 1000$ worth of this tea but don’t boil all the quality of it out of the leaves, I did a slow process on low heat. Both China and South Korea have a clinical trail on it
I found you when I was first diagnosed in 2019 with Stage 4. In Aug 2021 I had pneumonia and didnt know it, it put me in kidney failure, I had to get on dialysis. Got up to a 15 and my doc took me off Sept 2022. Now, Im back at an 8. I assume due to being prescriped the wrong meds and uncontrolled bp. Im rewatching this to remind me of hope! I dont want to go back on dialysis. I have a better understanding of what went wrong.
Wonderfully inspiring. Thank you for the encouraging video. I'm dropping weight now. Using calorie counting, intermittent fasting, and selective food intake. Onward !!!
Well I’ve never had a kidney stone and this comment section makes me wanna do literally everything I can to avoid getting one
One day i will come again to this channel when i get my one kidney with 27 % to 70to 100%
good luck friend
try, don't quit, lower drastically or eliminate salt and live on water
So what today..?

你吗 的 吃哦而
43 year old man here. I went to a clinic after noticing I was urinating more at night and they did a blood test, after which theysaid I had proteinuria and hematuria and told me to see a urologist. Also they checked my heart and said I had hyperlipidemia and hypertension and to see a cardiologist, and put me on high blood pressure medication. They said I was negative for diabetes which is at least one good thing. I can't say for certain that I'll be diagnosed with CKD however I want to prepare myself now in case that is what they find. Thanks for your helpful advice. The Kidney disease community is very supportive and caring which I greatly appreciate. I cut out all junk food, fast food and processed food from the grocery store. I'd like to find a list of things to buy from the grocery store every time I go. You're right that being proactive is extremely important.
Thank you so much sir. Even though I'm not bad off, I want to be healthy. You are giving people hope in their darkest hour. GOD BLESS YOU.
Thank you so much for this video. I am currently on dialysis and I want to get off of course. I am 44 year old that recently discovered I have lupus. My creatinine is about 5 right now and I've been doing dialysis for almost 2 months. I have hope that my creatinine will go down and my kidney function will return.
how are you now mate?
Thank you for this… my nephrologist told me eleven years ago I had no hope and would be dead in two years. Not having hope is the worst thing. Take matters into your own hands, learn healing scriptures, learn about diet.
Great Video. One more important thing to add that you can work with dietitian to have your diet customized with no cost because all insurances cover this at 100% with no co-pay or co-insurance. You do not have to meet your deductible to see a dietitian if you have Chronic Kidney disease, Diabetes or over weight/obesity. All you have to do is ask your doctor to refer you to a Registered Dietitian.
My 16 year old son has just been diagnosed with CKD about 2 month ago. Currently on Dialysis. I feel very down now...so sad for my son situation. I really hope my son can recover even just a bit. Thank you for your info, i really appreciated
Keep hoping! I helped my mother improve functionality by cleaning her diet. Limiting animal protein with occasional organic chicken or fish. Doc was surprised to see improvement from 13 to 22 functionality in less than 2 mths. Unfortunately she went back to old unhealthy eating habits. Now she's struggling with low bp due to hemodialysis. I believe she could have avoided stage 5 if she'd nourished her body healthfully. Good luck! 🙏🙏
@@steviemac3453 Thank you very much Stevie🙏🙏🙏

What were his symptoms when diagnosed with CKD stage 5?
Thank you for giving hope to those who are having kidney problems.
You're awesome. I'm so happy for you and that you're doing so well. You are just what the doctors should be ordering. Someone who has been through the experience has done the research and genuinely wants to be of service to those who need it.😇
Great stuff 👍 ❤🇬🇧
Thank you!
I'm currently at stage 2 CKD, but looking for ways to prevent it from getting worse. I came across your video.. thank you for the great tips!
Thank you - and you are very lucky to find out at such an early stage. A lot of what I discuss is from my journey from stage 5 to 4 then up to 3b - many of the restrictions I had at stage 4 or 5 won't apply to stage 2. My recommendation is to work with a renal dietitian - they will help you understand your labs and learn how to adjust your diet based on them. you'll also be so much happier and not over-restricting food. Keep an eye on your blood pressure and blood sugar - keep those under control. Do you know the underlying cause of your kidney damage? You'll want to work with your doctors to try and figure that out so you can manage it to stop further damage. Even without knowing your history, you have a very good chance of living an amazing life with CKD just from finding out so early and starting to look for ways to manage it. You're certainly on the right track!
@@DADVICETV Thank you for responding!! Unfortunately, my nephrologist doesn't really seem to know what is causing my kidney disease and she doesn't wan't to put me through unnecessary tests at this point. It's kind of discouraging not to know, but I understand and appreciate her not wanting her to do that, especially if everything is stable. All I can do is follow these steps, continue to do check ups, and be on top of this! Thank you for your advice!
You are Stage 2. Don't worry, until Stage 5.

Thanks for sharing this !
My husband has kidney failure, diabetes, heart disease and other health problems. It will be hard for him not to eat his meat every day, but I will encourage him to make some changes. Thanks again!
As a man of 59 with 37 of them with renal failure I found your post highly interesting and positive I have had 3 transplants 2 worked last one stable and currently have 4 kidneys inside my body After watching your post i figured i will try out all your methods from tomorrow Hopefully it will protect my last graft for as long as possible Thank you again you are a very likable man good luck and love to you and all other renal patients x
Thanks for your support - it is very much appreciated!
How did you get four kidneys???!!??? People dying trying to get one!
2original failed 1 transplanted in me broken and 4 th one working well please god @@ReasonablySpeaking9808
GREAT INFO, thank you!!
Step 1: Get a good doctor
Step 2: Control your blood pressure and diabetes
Step 3: **Monitor your bloodwork, get copy of results
Step 4: Modify your diet (watch protein, sodium, potassium, phospherous). Protein=try plant based.
Step 5: Be aware of available supplements instead of prescriptions.
Step 6: Be active even walking, try 10,000 steps a day (5 miles). No lifting weights or high intensity.
Step 7: Lose weight
Step 8: Manage stress
That diet has been keeping my BFF off of dialysis for 2 years.
Dr, doubted the diet would work.
Keeping steady in the third stage.
How about salt?
I just found out that I have stage 2 kidney disease. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I will be changing my diet ASAP
Thank you so much for this information you don't realize how much you're doing for people who are going through something like this!
Thank you very much for this video. I am stage 4 and my doctor did not offer me any help like you did. I had to search the internet and gradually understood whai I should do.
Your video is the conclusion. Thank you!
My husband was just told this morning that his GFR is 13. Yesterday it was 18, the day before that it was 25. I’m here with him at the hospital. Waiting to see if his platelets have come up so he can have a kidney biopsy done. There have been many tears cried today! This happened so fast!
I know it is scary and heartbreaking, but such a quick drop is most likely an AKI (temporary kidney injury). His doctors should be able to determine the cause and address it, which would bring his kidney function up to where it was. This was my problem when I was GFR 8 - I had an AKI on top of CKD. That was just over 5 years ago and I have made so much progress since then. I hope the same for your husband. He will need you to help him live a heart healthy kidney friendly lifestyle after this. Staying properly hydrated, eating healthy, watching sodium, and giving up any bad habits he may have (such as smoking). Getting and keeping his blood pressure under control will also be important. Check out the videos with Dr. Rosansky - he is a well know Nephrologist who is on here every month sharing tips and advice.
@@DADVICETV Hello TV. When my doc told me several months ago that I needed to go on dialysis immediately (EXACTLY per the open of your vid) I told him to give me time. And I did nothing. The latest GFR is 10....A slow progression. Yeah, I'm in shock. My problem was two fold. I have had a thing called interstitial cystitis (I have a book on Amazon about that.I founded a support group of 'armchair urologists' and we learned a LOT from each other!) for the last 40 years. And only one good kidney. So....lousy readings has always been there. I thought this was more of the same. I am diabetic, just over the line now. I'm 67. To date my only symptom is fatigue. Feeling pretty good, actually.
I had a growth, no-cancer, in the bladder which may have kinda stopped up the ureter (so the theory goes) which swelled up and damaged the kidney. It has been going on for some time before my docs got all their ducks in a row, removed the growth, and put in a stint from the kidney to the bladder. It was less than a week since the stint was removed that I had the last test. I'm hoping that GFR of 10 was an artifact. Long story short your vid has given me hope. NOW I intend to get busy on your suggestions. How I got here was different from you, but at some point we merged and your vid is crazy right on. Thank you for giving hope!
