CKD stage 5 RENAL DIET: Foods I ate to improve kidney function to stage 3 and avoid kidney failure

- Episode 34: CKD stage 5 RENAL DIET: What I ate that helped get me from being used to high-sodium fast food to stage 3. Not everyone is a great chef and for me cooking is something I have almost no experience doing. I work with a renal dietitian to set my nutritional goals and limits and then shop for items that allowed me to stay on target, yet could be easily made at home and while traveling (I travel a lot). I'm still learning to cook my own meals (starting with Stir Fry) and one day look forward to being a great at-home dad chef. In this video you'll see that a renal diet doesn't have to be difficult to follow as long as you know your nutritional goals and limits and track what you eat to stay within those goals. For me, limiting sodium has been the biggest challenge so far. It can be difficult to find foods lower in sodium without cooking your meals for yourself. To find out what your nutritional targets are, please work with a renal dietitian - even if you can't cook they can help you during your transition.
Some of my favorite foods that are helping me while I learn to cook are shown in this video. I wish I was able to go cold turkey and start cooking all my meals tomorrow, but it's taking me a lot of time to learn to cook things that actually taste good (you don't want to hear about the extra low sodium Chili I've tried to make - I don't even think the dogs would eat it). Tracking my meals has been extremely helpful and made it easy to find quick and easy meals to fit my busy life. My goal is to learn to cook and then prep for the entire week. I know it's possible and I'm excited to get to that point.
Figuring out what to eat when you are stage 5 or stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) can be a real challenge and your Chronic Kidney Disease diet (also known as a Renal diet) is critical to improving kidney function and getting to stage 3 and beyond. When I was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 5 my Docs couldn’t really give me a list of safe foods to eat, they just gave me lots of random renal diet information on don’t eat this, don’t eat that, avoid these. Finding out the best Chronic Kidney Disease Diet / Renal Diet to help my kidney function improve and avoid kidney failure was difficult - but I did it and today I share what worked for me to improve my kidney function and get me to stage 3. I was left on my own to find the best kidney disease treatment that would help me improve my kidney function and avoid kidney failure (end stage renal failure) and dialysis.
I had all of the typical symptoms of Chronic Kidney disease - fatigue, limited appetite, nausea, and insomnia.
I’m going to share with you the most common things I ate in a typical week on my renal diet. It may not work for everyone - you may have allergies, you may have another condition that restricts your diet, we are each different when it comes to our Chronic Kidney Disease diet. Hopefully this will help you to see what I ate on my renal diet which helped me go from stage 5, to stage 4, to stage 3 in only 6 months.

Is there a health update to this video for your results after 45 days of keto?
Do you believe that stage 5 went down to stage 3? I doubt it coz kidney once damaged is irreversible…. You can only slow its progression through diet if you are disciplined. There’s no such thing as what James is saying that he was formerly stage 5, down to stage 3. If that is so, it’s incredible!
May I know on what stage you’re in now, James. Pls share wd us what you did so we can copy them. What you’re eating… breakfast, lunch, dinner. But so you sometimes cheat like us?, hehehe. Especially when in gatherings, we got mo choice but to eat what’s on d table.
What is the best probiotic for stage5 renal
I notice you showed a couple boxes of food. Do you ever look at the sodium in boxed food. They are a no no for kidney function. No salt or sugar.
I just found out 1 week now that I am stage 5 kidney failure. My reading is 13.5%. These few days words cannot Express as I just keep breaking down in tears. I am trying to lift my faith in God and so last night I came across your video. I am a believer that God help those who tries to help themselves. I too will be a living testimonial to this disease and I will definitely be using some if not all your advice
Start here: www.dadvicetv.com/kidney-health-week-1/beat-kidney-disease%3A-my-strategy-to-reverse-kidney-failure%2C-improve-kidney-function-%26-avoid-dialysis This is a great summary of the strategy and how well it's worked for me. Working with a renal dietitian is a MUST - they are amazing.
i'd start downing gallons of water, take baking soda pills and niacin if i were you. cut back on the salt too.
I found out at near Christmas that I, had CKD. It is very confusing when you are told the news. At the time my function was 17% but fell to 13% around Xmas. Once I had gathered my senses I, started to be really strict with my diet. He is right in the video. I know it's not the same for everyone but my kidney function has improved (Saye Belleh). God is in control don't lose hope.
Please read my comments below Nickie... Saye Belleh
@@DADVICETV Activated Charcoal has been proven to improve kidney function. It kept stage 5 patients off dialysis. You should research it. A lot of people have improved their kidney function, so it is not a death sentence.
THIS GUY'S FANTASTIC.....IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE'S BEEN "CALLED," TO THIS MISSION.
I agree!
Mr. DadVice,
I accidentally came across your video about CKD.
I was level 4 ckd but, after watching your videos and changing my diet to mainly blueberries, raspberry, cherries, & strawberries , my kidneys are now up to a level 2.
I've been sharing your videos with everyone I can.
Just as you said... my Dr. said chronic kidney failure is er-reversable!
I showed her my Nephrology report & she was shocked!
I still & will continue eating my assorted berries & nuts!!
I wanted to thank you for posting your videos.
I believe you've saved a lot of lives...
especially IF they'll pay attention to what you're saying & apply it to their
everyday living.
It me some getting used to eating differently! Depriving myself of all that poisonous junk!! Thank you Sir Again.
What other stuff do you eat other than berries & nuts?
Does it good also for a diebetic patient?
This is still incredible! Do you have kidney supplement to support reversing your kidney damage? Pls. share wd us… I’m stage 3B and I’m taking ketoanalogues 9tablets/day. It lowers down my creatinine. Taking it 3 months already. If become stable, nephrologist will cut down to 6tabs/day and so forth.
She added another supplement like Dapagliflozin and my blood works and Microalbumin got better results in a months time only.
❤
I'm a lupus patient, my kidney stage level is ckd5 . My Dr said no water restriction and salt restrictions, I'm little scared abt my life cos I dunno what diet to follow. My creatinine level is 4.2, wanted to lower the creatinine level. After watching ur video, I feel good, let me follow the diet and check...
Thank you so much James! Your videos have helped my mom..the doctor asked her to go into dialysis, she refused. I helped change her diet with the help of your videos and a lot of research. Now she is doing so much better and is very energetic. She sleeps better and feels better too. Thank God for wonderful ppl like you who want to help others. God bless you abundantly and heal you completely! Praying for you.
Wow, what an amazing testimony!! Thank you for sharing ❤️
How long were you able to hold the condition Florence. How is she doing now ❤️. My father is in stage 5 impacted with Covid hospitalization .. Been told dialysis. Could u help me with your research.
pls share some of her foods tips because i'm also in stage 4 right now
Thank you so much for Sharing ❤️ I'm stage 3A changing my Lifestyle.Im fighting Every day!!
Can you please share more of what she ate. I am trying to help my dad
am so glad i finally found someone who walk the talk and have such generousity in sharing ur experiences. wish u all the best, while i start my fight as well...
Thank you Oscar! I believe that is the one thing that really sets my channel apart - I'm not someone talking about kidney disease with no real experience, I'm not dressing up like a doctor to trick people into buying some "cure" I'm pushing - I'm an actual CKD patient who is just following one of the methods promoted by the Mayo Clinic to treat CKD. I never realized just how powerful diet and lifestyle changes can be - and I am so glad I found doctors who believe in Conservative Management as a form of CKD treatment. Glad you are here to join all of us kidney warriors.

Thanks Sydney for giving us insight on how to take care of our kidney health
That is priceless 💗
Your experiences in your kidney problem and how your recovery is truly a blessing and a great great help, after all it is not as dreadful and futile. Somethings must be do to reverse the situation. Thank you so much James, your a Godsent. May you to continue sharing your positive experiences. Godbless us all.
I’m so grateful to you Mr.James for your very useful advices about kidney disease. I m in stage 4. Since I watched your videos I learned a lot and now I’m stage 3b. Even I said to my nephrologist that she is not treating me, Dadvice TV is treating me. Dr. Ro’s book is my table book now. Thank you very much.
Thanks for the Intel. You have a great delivery. Love your sense of humor. Six years ago the doctor wanted to remove my kidney and adrenals. I even went in for the preop visit. I called the doctor with remorse and told him I wanted to get a second opinion. I’ve never been back. Not 100% yet but working on it. Thanks for all you do. God bless you.
Hello, Dadvice ! I try your diet and lifestyle for a week now. Also i'm doing IF, lemon water, strawberries, cranberries, low sodium and calories. I feel great. I've been diagnosed with CKD stage 4 for almost 4 years now, i hope i'm getting better soon. Thank u so much for sharing ! God bless u~ Fans from Indonesia
Keep it up!
I want to thank you for the videos of your fantastic journey through Kidney Disease. At first I was skeptical, because at stage 4 kidney disease doctors were saying my kidney function would only worsen, not improve, but I decided to give your advice a try, couldn’t hurt. Because my labs showed a GFR of 24, a creatinine of 2.69 and a bun of 77, my doctor scheduled me to have a vein mapping done for the insertion of a fistula to be used for dialysis that was going to happen soon. But after watching your videos and following your guidelines, I greatly improved my readings to a GFR of 48, a creatinine of 1.51 and a bun of 26 in only one month. My doctor was amazed and said to hold off on any dialysis preparations that I was now a stage 3A. I am going to continue following your advice and hope to improve even better. Again thank you for changing my outlook on living with Kidney Disease.
Outstanding work - keep it up, and all the best to you going forward!
Sam, were you really able to do this in one month. That's awesome . I was just diagnosed and am terrified. Feels like a death sentence. What were all the main steps you took to get a handle on this monster? Thanks Sam. Sincerely,. Mike
Sam, that is amazing. What specifically did you do? That really is amazing.
@@questioneverything594
@@jksatte Right off the bat I stopped eating all meat. Went on a plant based diet. Drank only water and a lot it. 4 cups of Black coffee in the morning then 67 oz. bottled water the rest of the day. Hard at first but got used to it. For breakfast, 3 fried eggs and toast with no-salt butter every other day. Shredded wheat with blue berries and strawberries the rest of the time. Lots of blue berries, about 2 ounces in cereal and 2 ounces strawberries with 1/2 cup of 2% milk. I like Amy's frozen plant based dinners, so I eat them 4 or 5 times a week. Never added salt to anything only pepper. Not much of a cook but sometimes I fry up peppers and onions in a little olive oil and a lot of seasonings for taste. Lettuce, tomato, celery and onion salads with low salt dressing. ( hard to find ). I use tomato sauce and spices and cook green beans, sometimes spaghetti cause I love tomato sauce. It' really very high in Potassium but my blood levels seem to be in the normal range so I cook with it a couple times a week. I have diabetes, so no sugar, but carbs are a problem. I also eat nuts, all kinds, usually unsalted ones about 1 ounce a few times a week.. That's about it. By the way, had blood work done last month and my GFR is now 51.
Hope this helps. If I can do it, anyone can. good luck.
Thank you so much. Thought I was doomed. Stage 4. Ready to fight. Dr actually apologized to me when I went from 3 to 4. Gift was 19. Working my way back up. Thank you for your help!
These is pretty good video... i have stage 5 ESRD and Stage 4 cancer... went vegan to get off dailysis in 4 months. Its been two years since my diagnosis... not easy fighting both. Started eating grass feed beef due to anemia... i do oats fruits,apples pears blueberries , 2eggs and big salad, no microwave meals. Green and black tea with raw sugar and almond milk. snacks is cheese cake. i used Himalayan salt i have no retention and 8.3% body fat... no bloating for me. I had Nephrostomy tube's to drain my kidneys due to blockage which was removed after two months. Still fighting the battle.
God Bless you!
Keep fighting
How are you doing now?
Thank you do much because I felt hopeless until I saw your video. The doctors still working on this condition, so listening to what foods and things I can eat to improve my health is a blessing.
Ha! you're great! I'm watching videos to help my dad. He's on a Dialysis now and poor guy, he is such a foodie! I'm making Christmas dinner for him tomorrow, so checking things out. Thanks so much for your channel!
Thank you so much for your positivity and support. You’ve given me so much hope after receiving some terrible news last week that i’ve dropped to egfr 15
James thank you so much for providing your channel for us to give us hope, I went for a physical about 12 days ago, and found out I got stage 3B kidney disease, egfr 39, protein in urine at 78. You give me a lot of hope in recovering some from this condition at at least maybe stabalizing. I got on the program fast with plant based diet, and chicken/fish. Been on this diet for 8-9 days already. Lots of vegs and fruits. Have eliminated all the processed heavy hitters with salt, even condiments like pepperchini's have heavy salt in them we were surprised. Eliminated processed foods and meats, even a single flour jumbo tortillia has a lot of salt. Good work with your channel!!
Do they prescribed you any medication?
Hi, James! Many thanks for all you’re doing! I pray for your complete success in this and for you have a very long, healthy and joy filled life with your family.God bless you! Keep your great videos coming pls!
Wow good for you man I can see your progress and love your set up info which helps us to appreciate what we are getting from you ,keep it up
Your a wealth of information and I appreciate your positivity. I have not been diagnosed with kidney disease, but I’ve had a recent scare and your videos are a great tool I needed to educate myself. Thank you and many blessings to you.
Thanks for your support! I'm glad it was only a scare for you. This is a great time to look at your diet and any habits you have which could be putting additional stress on your kidneys. Then you can work to make changes to help keep your kidneys working great and never have to worry about kidney issues. Good luck!
Thanks for sharing. Some of us need this kind of info- we are overwelmed trying to figure out what to eat. This will make it so nice with less stress. Thanks Again im very grateful to you. God Bless you from grandma Katie in Oregon

Hi I have medullary sponge kidney disease now CKD but I saw your ribbon the orange and green one and I was wondering if you have that too?
@@dreuthomas1266 I choose the Orange and Green (with a light red across the top) due to the colors being used often with kidney disease, and the colors represent dual illnesses (since we usually start with something like diabetes or high blood pressure and then developed kidney disease). You are the first person to actually ask - great eye! Later this year I will be replacing my leased vehicle and I'll be hiring someone to design a wrap using the green and orange on my next vehicle.

Congratulations on your hard work on achieving your goals!!!
Only God led me to this channel thank you for sharing I so encouraged
Thank you for sharing. Avoiding all the usual foods is so difficult. But I’m sticking to it. Your video was reassuring me that healing can happen. I’m hopeful. Thank you so much.
I just found your channel today. I have been told I have Stage 3 kidney disease. Fantastic video! Over the next few weeks, I will be bingeing on your videos and taking lots of notes. Thank you for sharing!!!❤
Results pls
On 28th of December 2023 I was rushed to hospital with 4%. I thought I had gout. 3 doctors didn't pick it up that my last kidney failed. Im type 2 diabetic and it was the high blood pressure that went on top of that and was too much for my kidney now im on Dialysis been 3weeks now. Thank you ill be taking on your information
good stuff and thanks for going through in detail what you eat, really helpful for all of us dealing with CKD
im just proud of you !!!!!!!! thank you a million times over
Thanks for your support - I really appreciate it.
Fantastic. Such a friendly, practical and positive approach to a kidney disease diet. Just diagnosed with stage 4 CKD and hoping I can improve my GFR with proper nutrition. This was a great help!
Great to have you here Pat. One note is that we are each a little different, and your dietitian will help you to know HOW MUCH of key nutrients (like potassium, phosphorus, fiber, etc.) you need. Then you can eat based on what you need - making it easier to not over burden your kidneys while focusing on your overall health. It gets easier with time - today I feel like I can go anywhere and eat (I know what my limits are and I stay within those).
Looks like an awesome set up.Thanks for sharing your experience with us.All this helps so much.
Thank you so much for sharing your story, experience, and coaching. Also, thank you so much for the behind the scenes setup tour. I am so grateful for the time, energy, and effort you invested in sharing with others how we can help ourselves. All praises for your refusal to accept No for an answer. Bless you!

Great advice ! Thank you so much for being so kind and generous.
You are so welcome!
So glad I came across this channel, thank you for making these videos
Thank you sooo much from the bottom of my heart for making these videos! It is amazing that you have been able to start the process of healing despite what doctors have told you. I am only 27 and I have polycystic kidney disease (a hereditary one) in which I was diagnosed with as a child. I read about kidney disease and see things like it’s basically a death sentence and it makes me so nervous! I eat a plant-based diet and work out often, but it’s so hard to find things to eat that aren’t detrimental to my kidney health. I really appreciate all of your videos and I’ve been watching some every day! Good luck on your journey and I would love to be able to encourage people about this someday as well ✨

How are you today?
I’m fine lol I think 😅 just living life
Thank you for sharing. I also have PKD and am so scared. I have watched my GFR continue to fall... currently at 22. Reading your comment and watching James has inspired me to take action. Thank you ❤

Great information James!
Thank you so much!!! I was just diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome, still waiting on further results, and I was told to follow the renal diet. I feel like I’ve been buying a lot of produce and my plans for it always fall through. This is so helpful for me, even some of your personal limits, like no more than 700 mg of sodium at one meal is amazingly helpful, thank you!
Nephrotic syndrome? Caused from lupus?
love your enthusiasm my friend, bless your soul

Dadvice TV - Kidney Health Coach
Any reason U didn't say a lot about salads or raw veges? Videos are great info & helpful, Thank u.
There are several ideas to try
drink lots of water.
eat watermelon - this helps prevent kidney disease .
try taking vitamin A and drink organge juice - these can cure kidney disease .
cut down on tomato, asparagus, spinach and alcohol.
(I discovered these and why they work on Jaylands kidney kit website )
I heard no milk.
Thank you for taking time to help us all with Kidney Disease what we can eat.
You're welcome. Getting healthy was challenging for me, but once I started working with a renal dietitian to customize what I ate based on my own labs, things got so much easier and my health continued to improve. Do you currently work with a renal dietitian?
Thanks Dadvice. I love your positivity. I was diagnosed with stage 3 efgr 33 in 2014 and I had to cut down meat and increase water intake and regular exercise. I wasn't much of a drinker which is the main culprit for my kidney disease. I have been on stage 3 since then, but 6 months ago my efgr dropped to 26 which scared me. I turned vegan, eat more fibre and watch my sodium & potassium intake. My efgr went back up to 33. I feel empowered by your positivity and your determination to move to stage 2 which I didn't think it's possible from what I read online. Hey, if Dadvice can do it, so can I!
Wow. Good for you. I didn't know that was possible.
You have maintained very well. I am 5 years in, I have to do something to improve things.
Two ticks: it’s been a year since your post. How are you doing now? Were you able to raise gift more? Please respond. Thank you.
Are you on dialysis?
My egfr is at 35 in Mar, so it's gone up a bit. I followed the Kidney Coach's kidney solution guide, having a more alkaline diet and taking their recommended herbal tea and supplements.
James, I love the information you provide. Without you and other RUclips champions, I woulld have lost faith. By the way, you look so so healthy in this video. Congratulations! and on your eGfr reversal to stage 3. You're one of my heroes.
Thank you. I'm doing great (so great I've even gained a lot of weight I'm now working off).

Is your kidney disease polycystic ? You need to know the type of CKD .
@@michaell3711 s he has cyst in his kidney. His mother also had same problem.
@@selvikamala4562 ,,, Once it is polycystic kidney disease he has to remain on dialysis at least twice weekly. The kidneys are usually BOTH damaged from it. Yes,,, anything is possible with divine help. Polycystic Kidney disease usually is hereditary and passed on from generation. I wish him well as this disease took my brother in 2016.
Just discovered you and oh my goodness, you’ve turned my outlook around 180 degrees!!! I’m also not a great cook, too tired from anemia, looking for a way to stop my GFR slide. It’s down to 27 now (38 a year ago!). My only worry is cutting out black coffee. Made a list of your foods and will be shopping tomorrow! 😋 thank you 🙏🏻
Check out the videos with dietitian I have - coffee can be part of your diet as long as it’s not too much or loaded with sugar.
It’s nice to know that it’s possible to move up in the stages. I’m going for a jog now. Thanks for the extra and thanks for posting.
Glad to have helped! So far I've gone from Stage 5 (GFR 8) to Stage 3. More importantly I have my energy back and feel great.
@@DADVICETV can you do egg yolk or no?
@@rahat2492
Egg yokes, potassium, and phosphorous are to be avoided by those with critical kidney disease, as well as salt and red meat.

Thank you!
Your videos are very encouraging and stress relief that not to worry and giving belief that i can do and change my life style with smily face not with depression mood. Thanks a lot James.
I am so glad I found your encouraging videos.
Very much inspiring and happy video.
Glad I found you! I have my 1st Nephrology appointment on July 19th. My GFR has been 53-43 for a long time! My primary care doctor did not tell me I had anything to worry about! No special diet, nothing! Before he retired on 4-1 he wrote in his doctor’s notes that I was Stage 3, possibly Stage 4 kidney problems. Still did not tell me. He said my pre-diabetes issues probably caused my CKD over the years! Exasperating! I have always been under a doctor’s care but have not been advised about my issues! I am so disheartened but lucky to see your video!
Sadly I learned that doctors have been trained for a long time to not mention kidney issues until they become serious - which breaks my heart since it takes away time to make changes. Good think you found out - it's never too late to look at what you can do to slow down your kidney function loss and maybe even regain some of it.
The same thing happened to me. I only found out because of my bloodwork. I immediately bought the book stopping kidney disease by Lee Hull. I was in stage 3b at 42 GFR. I only eat salad, vegetables, fruit. I eat a little chicken once a week. My GFR is now 50 and 52. I am not a diabetic and don't have high blood pressure. I did find out my iron is low and my B12 is too.

I really enjoyed your positive attitude. I'm at stage four of renal failure. You have really inspired me to keep trying to get to one of the other stages so I won't have to be on dialysis. I see my new nephrologist at the end of this month. I moved that is why I have a new one. Also recently I found out my old one became semi- retired. He isn't taking anymore patients in his office. I hope I can reverse mine like you did.
For me, the most important parts of all of this comes down to stopping further damage and using nutrition/diet to give my body what it needs (not too much, not too little) while reducing stress and the burden placed on my kidneys. I recently added Renadyl ( www.dadvicetv.com/renadyl ) to my treatment strategy - took it for 90 days and got new labs - lowest BUN and CREATININE levels since being diagnosed! I encourage you to check it out and talk to your new doctor about using it as part of your diet. Good luck and always feel free to reach out! Our community of kidney warriors is amazing at supporting each other - and that is a huge boost in kicking kidney disease to the curb!
How are things going now? I hope you have continued to improve.
Greatly enjoyed learning!
I am in stage 5 kidney failure, I'm at 11% now and I have learned more from your videos then my nephrologist has given me in last 6 years! I'm SO frustrated because I've been given absolutely NO food requirements, renal diets or even NOTHING about on fluid requirements!! I started seeing this nephrologist when I was in stage 3 almost to stage 4 well Im now at stage 5! I feel he is just letting me die!! I have little support, besides my parents and siblings and I went from loving life too having my mortality smack me in my face! I'm VERY scared and I need help! There is so many conflicting things on the internet on what I should or should not eat but hearing what actually works is what I want to hear! I still would like à list of foods u can and can not eat and the proper amounts! I didn't realize I wasn't supposed to eat a ton of red meat! I go to the doctor with a list of questions and he rarely answers with a direct answer! He's so nonchalant about my care and I'm super afraid its going to cost me my life!
Brother I went through the same things, diaylsis,makes you feel so much better, follow the diet,take your meds,became a friend with God,and watch your fluid intake,you put alot of fluid,taking off a lot of fluid in 1 session is murder,and watch your phosphorus..you have any questions,hit me up here,I'm Jason
The cooking doc 9n you tube is an actual kidney Dr. A nephrologist, he has tons of quick recipes. The processed crap this guy is recommending is why he is still obese.
Get in diaylsis,and you will see even less,but not to worry he's watching you,thru your blood test,,once your in they have a dietitian at diaylsis,and become friends with the guys that have been there awhile,they have all the tips,wish I could help you more
Kari Hilborn I was the same way,when I first got the news I thought it was a death sentence,,then I started diaylsis,talk to some folks,and felt alot better after diaylsis,,water or fluid intake should be 34 oz,, basically 2 water bottles,,once you get to diaylsis they have a dietitian on staff,stay away from foods with phosphorus,make sure to take your binders,no oranges or bananas,,just watch what you eat if your phosphorus is high,it will borrow calcium from your bones don't want that,,be prepared to loose weight I dropped 100lbs in 3 years,,and if you don't like who is sticking you,don't be scared to ask for someone different
Hi tiger talks, the foods he mentioned on this video is how he ate early after his diagnosis and how he traveled. His diet has evolved and you can learn more on other videos that include Jen Hernandez , a board certified lisened renal dietician. Everyone should speak to their own dietician
James, I've been following your videos since early this year. I had given up looking up information on ckd because there was controversial information. This is when I came across your videos. I immediately took to your positive attitude. Your words immediately gave me hope. I am stage 5 and already have the catheter for dialysis ready. Just waiting for the doctor to say, "it's time." NOT REALLY. Since following you, I bought my prorenal vitamins (with discount thru your promotion), my renadyl and I plan on being one of your warriors. Thank you for all that you do. You are very much appreciated. I'm also sharing your link with others and they're ordering their vitamins, etc. God grant you complete healing of your Kidneys. God bless you always. 🙏
Interested to know how the renal vitamins helped you.....I'm Stage 5 too & doctor wants to put my catheter in but I am waiting it out.
@@rachelstratman1405 isnt stage 5 the end stage? how do you survive without dialisis?
@@farnorthhomested844 That used to be the case, but now stage 5 is just before end stage/dialysis, depending on your individual labs results. In my case my GFR is 11, but my labs are pretty stable & no severe symptoms, so I am what is considered the 'coasting' stage. For most people, this would be the time to consider transplant
@@rachelstratman1405 i am already on dialysis. just had a 24 hr urine test and im at 6 at creatnine. its supposed to be .3 to 1.2. what is yours at?
I’m watching this for my mother who had kidney decease . Thanks
me too, I'm with you...
You are fantastic. Such easy solutions.
Congratulations for persevering and self-love, with wisdom and not giving up. Amazing to see your healing energy now. All the best and keep getting healthier. 🎉
Why why on Amazon is the chicken patty over 100 bucks a box? I'm so glad i found this video I'm 14% ckd with all other issues. Your fixing to change my life o have hope when I've cried for 2 months scared to death of dialysis. I'm animal lover so i transport rescue dogs cats to other states in the foster care of animals. I'm in wv i go to vt mass Connecticut all over o don't wanna stop doing that. Wish i could give you huge hug tell you ty ty
TO Dadvice : THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your help and ALL that you do !!!
You are so welcome!
Great info. Thank you !
James, thank you very much for sharing your victorious journey! Thank you for all your effort and generosity in creating very informative videos!!! More power..
I appreciate that!
God bless you.
Great video, important info. Love the colorful background, its great!!
Thank you very much for the wonderful teachings ❤️❤️👍
Thank you so much for your videos, it’s so hard to find decent videos about this. I have stage 3 kidney disease and i truly appreciate everything you do!
I was just released from the hospital for pneumonia and I was told I was retaining liquids cuz of how bad my kidneys were. Been researching since on what I need to do to get better. This really helps. Really inspired to know It’s not a lost. Thank you.
Do you happen to have access to your lab results? You'll want to see your Renal Function, CBC, and Urine results. Once you have those you can determine how your kidneys are doing, along with areas you may need to make adjustments for. Here is a great place to start in discovering a better life with kidney disease: www.dadvicetv.com/what-you-need-to-know
I'm the Mother of a son who was told he has stage 5 kidney failure. I don't know what to feed him. He's hungry and can't have salt, potassium or phosphorus and just a very small amount of liquids. I can't get very much help from these doctors for what he can have. He's just so depressed and I know he is very scared and they want him to go get dialysis. It's so hard because he's not been sick much during his life. Has high Blood pressure. He's just sleeping now so much and wakes up like he's in a fog at times. I'm so afraid everytime I try to make him food that has any tastes to it. I give him mostly chicken salad and egg whites. Can any one help me. Theyvsay no frozen dinners no red meat, no nothing and only one piece of white bread. All I do is worry and cry with fear for him. He doesn't want dialysis and none of us his brother or sister or myself can give him a kidney. I'm too old and the rest have other factors that they cannot either. He's a very young 50s and he just melting away. In this world we now live in the doctors aren't very caring or helpful at all. The naturopath we took him too gave us some pills to take that are very expensive along with the other pills his doctor gives him for blood pressure and to help him to urinate which he can . They don't seem to be helping and his depression is just hurting my heart. Think You for reading this long sad story but I'm just frightened for him and fearful I'll feed the wrong thing to him. He's very smart but has ADHD and has a problem with reading these things for himself.❤
@@littlewolfspirit7373is he diabetic?
No he is not diabetic. Sorry it took me a few days to answer. I'm just worn out from worrying about this stuff. They have vein mapped him but have not said when he would be put on the dialysis, which we are trying to keep him off of it. He doesn't want to do that, I'm sure no one wants to do that either.
His GFR is around 13 I think.
@@littlewolfspirit7373 if not, diet won’t be very difficult. My dad is both CKD stage 5 and diabetic, so I had to clarify.
I’ll send you a list of ingredients that you can use.
Thank you for all the info and encouragement
I admire you, James. Blessings.
Thank you.
You are a very very generous man...
Thank you for sharing how to make videos!!! Thank you for all your kidney info! GOD BLESS N KEEP YOU!😇💜
Thank you Roni! I started all of this not to be generous, but to keep me focused on getting better and to give me something to do which made me feel productive. My doctor recommended it - and in a way I have everyone who watches my videos pushing me to keep going and getting better. It is that amazing support from our community that helps all of us to see the possibilities and reach for them. Without the support from each other, it would be too easy to give up on this journey. I'm so proud of what has become of Dadvice TV - it has become a resource of information, motivation, and inspiration for so many. And most importantly, it has become a voice of the kidney patient - a voice that is made up of all of our voices. Thank you again!
Cheering you on because you are cheering us on everyday!
Thank you Sean for your cheers and support!
Thank you James, going to your Website , bless you.

Glad it was helpful!
I am so grateful I found your videos! God bless you!
Glad you like them!
Great information God bless you for a good heart you have to share your experience and helpful information.
I appreciate that. Don't miss the live shows I do on Tuesdays with a renal dietitian. We take questions from the live chat during the broadcast right here on RUclips.
I salute your courage and what you went through which gives me hope sir
Thanks for sharing with us the videos . I
Congratulations, James on your subscriber count! Word is getting out. 👍👏❤️
Thank you - can't wait to hit 10,000 and keep going from there. The more subscribers I get, the easier it will be for me to get doctors, researchers, and others on camera to interview and get more tips and advice for all of us.
Dadvice TV - Kidney Health Coach WOW! Great idea!
Hey 🛂✋
You are such a help. GOD BLESS YOU.
Thanks!
God bless you James, ThankYou from the bottom of my heart, just love you.
You’re too funny!!! Lol...Thank you so much for sharing!!!🧡
Hi James nice to have found you. I know this is an old video, trying to get the 2023. It’s December 2,2023. I hope I can find the most current one.thanks for the tour.
Diet:
• Lots of water(no coffee, juice) iced water is ok (half weight of your body (ounces) you need to take)
• Avoid sodium/salt
• Breakfast: (egg white) 2-3 eggs worth, veggies oatmeal,
• Lunch&Dinner: Gisang gulay/steamed gulay, (vegan foods only)
• White bread only if you want to it breads in the morning
• Avoid all sauces (toyo, suka, ketchup, atbp.)
• Portion control each meal
• Add lime/lemon/calmansi for flavor of your food
• eat Apples (add fiber to your meal)
• Eat it consistently
You don’t need fiber & definitely avoid bread I’d be doing straight Carnivore actually.
Please don’t go Carnivore. The meat will kill the kidneys. Better to go Plant based.
Thanks save me time 😁
Thanks
A VERY helpful video! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Make sure to customize your food choices based on your own labs and what your doctors/dietitian recommends.
love your attitude
My precious husband was told two weeks ago he is at Stage 5 and we needed to start preparing for dialysis I found your video the day after. You gave us hope today pathology showed a notable improvement. If you ever want to visit Australia please know you know have friends down under. I felt hopeless until I stumbled across your videos. Bless you
Hows your husband now
How is he doing
Thank you so much for sharing this I am taking notes and sharing all of this with my husband who had acute kidney failure and has been on dialysis for eight months now.
Very educational and helpful
Glad it was helpful! Here is a video I did much more recently that summarizes all the things I wish I knew when I was first diagnosed: ruclips.net/video/kYhO5mvz_uE/видео.html It's a great blueprint of how I improved from Stage 5 to Stage 3.
Thanks! all the information on the foods and also how you make videos is so good to know as I made a couple videos on youtube myself on my battle with diabetes and I also had to learn on how to eat properly ... hope you the best and take care too!
James thank you for your help on what to east. It does become fairly complicated to find foods ok to eat on a stage four kidney diet! I am fairly new at this ,I didn't know I had a kid ey problem until I LEFT THE HOSPITAL THE LAST TIME. They sad I had Covid,but I really don't think so. I'm seventy give years old next week and I have had COPD for fifteen years now. I get Bronchitis every couple of years that puts me in the hospital for awhile. I believe it is all that I had again,it was No different then the other times. I'm older and I think they needed more Covid papients is what I believe! Crazy world these days! Well thank you once again, I'll try to find some of these items, well anyway they said I went from a 3-4 during that stay,. I one had ever told me I was a three, I would have been more careful off my diet. Tell Doctors to please tell us sooner.
Excellent! This needed! Drs don't tell you should do to improve your condition! Thanks
I agree. Moms dr said there is nothing to do to help her and it can’t be reversed. That was last day we saw him! So glad my hubby found this video
Our bodies are always looking to be in a state of good health... I don’t believe the medical profession... you are a great example...loved your enthusiasm...I cook everything fresh to keep healthy...
God Bless you. Thanks a lot for sharing, spending time and money doing this for helping other people. Wish we could have these videos in Spanish so I could share with some people I know. Greetings from Colombia, South America!
