- Episode 30: Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment: How I increased my GFR & improved my kidney function Part 1. Just 6 months ago today I was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease stage 5 and was told there was "Zero" chance of improving kidney function and that there was nothing I could do to lower my creatinine levels and increase my GFR. The doctors had no recommended chronic kidney disease recovery treatment for me - only dialysis. The doctors where wrong! In just 6 months I have changed my life and increased my GFR, lowered my creatinine levels, and improved my kidney function from Stage 5 to Stage 3. In this video, part 1 of 2, I share what I feel are the 10 most impactful things that helped me improve my kidney function, lower my creatinine level, and avoid dialysis. Let this video inspire you to take an active role in your kidney disease treatment and push for better care. Let me help you in your chronic kidney disease stage 5 recovery!

1. Built an amazing health team.
The first part of a good kidney disease treatment program is building a health team. My #1 support is not my Nephrologist - it is my Primary Care Physician. He is very positive, straight forward, and is there to help me get better. My Nephrologist mostly keeps an eye on my improvements, but really gives me little support or details. My Endocrinologist and Urologist have put my worries to rest of other serious issues. My Dietitian is the #2 player in my team. She is amazing at listening and giving me real advice - including exactly HOW to do things. I had to go through a lot of others to get this team built, but strong communication and a dedication to getting better like no other has been critical.
2. Manage my blood pressure
I made this a priority. It took some trial and error, but I take my blood pressure at home multiple times a day and pushed my doctors to change my meds quickly if I didn’t see positive results. It took about 1 month to find the right combo of kidney friendly meds to get my blood pressure down to under 130/80 consistently.
3. Eat a low inflammation kidney friendly diet.
Check out my video on how to shop for foods at the grocery store and download my list of low inflammation kidney friendly foods that I eat. The list is pretty massive - the largest I’ve ever seen. Yet it is missing a number of foods you may have heard are ok to eat which I have not included in my diet. Such as potatoes - even leaching potatoes is not acceptable to me. Following this renal diet and never cheating got me from Stage 5 to Stage 3 in about 5 months. At stage 3 I modified my diet - it is a different strategy to get from Stage 5 to 3 than going from Stage 3 to 2. I also strongly encourage everyone to see a Renal Dietitian. They will customize your diet and set the daily min and max for key nutrients like Water, Calories, Protein, Potassium, Phosphorous, Calcium, and Sodium.
4. Used supplements to support my body.
The word “supplement” scares a lot of people because they don’t understand the word, but supplements are a key part of my kidney disease treatment program. There are good and bad supplements. The ones which have really helped me the most are Fiber supplements (like Benefiber and Chitosan capsules), Vitamin D3, Vitamins B6 and B12, Omega 3, and a lot of other vitamins and minerals. As the right balance was figured out, I was able to replace a lot of different tablets with less - mostly thanks to a Renal Multivitamin called Pro-Renal+D w/Omega3. I also take CoQ10 to support my heart and blood pressure.
5. Avoided things which could slow or stop my recovery
I removed all NSAIDs from the house and only take medications or supplements approved by my health team. I drink plenty of water - started out at ½ my body weight in ounces and adjusted as I lost weight. Avoided all sodas and juices - I stuck with only drinking water from Stage 5 to 3. At stage 3 I added 1 small cup of coffee in the morning without any additives except MCT oil. I avoided all Artificial ingredients, preservative, and I read all food labels for everything I purchased. I stopped eating out except for an occasional treat and always stuck to the diet.

My daughter has been diagnosed Stage 5. No prior symptoms. Creatinine around 6 and GFR 8. Need lot of support to improve and follow your steps🤞🙏
How is your daughter now?
Have her completely change her diet to a plant based diet and eat more fiber through fruits and vegetables
How is your daughter now. What happened to her in such a young age. Kindly share with us her correct condition we pray for blessing. Good wishes From Pakistan
All would love to know how your precious daughter is doing? 🙏🙏❤️
I was so devastated when I was diagnosed with CKD stage 5. I am 24 years old. My doctor told me i have to go through a dialysis, and yesterday was my 5th dialysis. This video gives me hope to get better.
I'm glad the videos help. Once on dialysis, it is difficult to get off it without a transplant, but it is possible! Check out this book - he was on dialysis and got off it and shares what he did: amzn.to/2HMkYQ2
How did you get to with out notice? Did you never has any sintoms?
ANGIE VLOGS I’m 25 at stage 5 they are telling me the same..

@@col3hearted453 how are you doing now?.
If only I had learned about ibuprofen 10 years ago.....my doctor never told me what I was doing to my kidneys, but I am committed to following this advice now.
Me also 😢
Same here🥲
Amazing congratulations!💛 I have stage 2 which was a shock. I wish my Dad had been as proactive and educated as you have committed to be. He might still be alive today
James and his dadvice program has given me hope, everyone needs to listen to his show. Healthcare in uk is terrible. In the six months that I had been diagnosed stage 4 I’ve only seen my nephrologist once for five minutes and even had to prompt him to recommend a renal dietitian. Pretty bad!
Thank you for your help James.
Curious how you are doing?
Probably great listening to this video, Thank James follow him, n ur Dr of course
Dear Mr James,
Thank you very much. We love you.
All your videos are helping me to fight CKD.
My cretanine is up from 60 to 84 to 99.97.
Thank you again.
May God bless you.

Thank you Lexi.
Way to improve GFR for kidney failure
1. Built a health team - always why
2. Managed blood pressure
3. Ate a low inflammation kidney
- say no avocado, no banana, no potato
4. Used supplements - fiber or benefiber, omega 3
5. Avoided that cause kidney damage
- No soda, painkillers
B
Congratulations on your results. I'm writing from Oz and I'm assuming you mean no soda relates to fizzy, sugary drinks, not Soda Water? As a diabetic for the last 35 years I manage quite well on low carbs now but had not been aware of the painkillers, and I fact had recommended paracetamol to help with gout pain (not aspirin).
Wow, pls is paracetamol amongst the list of pain killers to avoid?
Thank you James! I grateful the Lord kept you around! You are doing a good work! Bless you!!
God bless you James Fabin. You and Dr Rosansky are saving more lives than a battalion of fire fighters. I am studying both of your books like I am preparing for college exams.
Thanks for your positivity and support!
@DADVICETV My PTH INTACT Parathyroid blood test shows my number is 355. Normal is 13 to 85. No doctor has bothered to mention phosphate binders. I wouldn't even know that I have that problem to address if I had not read it in Dr Rosansky's book. He should be teaching at a University.
I really love how positive you are and THANK YOU for educating us! I’m taking care of my dad and I really appreciate your support 😊
Thank you for your time making these videos, and for your hopeful attitude.
Thanks. At stage 3 and want to stay at that stage. I had been eating wrong. Ate banana's every day and loved baked potatoes. Stopped them all and other things. Never been a soda drinker. Anyway great videos.
Omg bananas will be the hardest thing for me. I love them and eat them everyday
Congrats on getting back to stage 3!
Thank you. I've been holding there and extremely happy to have all my energy back and no symptoms! I've been very active with my kids and enjoying life.
you can get to stage 2.im praying for you.keep us updated
Thank you! I'm giving it my best effort and have already done what the doctors said couldn't be done - made it to Stage 3 and am holding stable there.
Thank you James for giving me hope in avoiding dialysis. Im a CKD patient stage 4 and starting to change my lifestyle.
Dude you’re a badass I’m stage 3 GFR just came in at 53 I feel optimistic I can get above 60 after watching this!
You can do it! The higher your GFR, the easier it is to increase it with diet and lifestyle changes. Be careful with focusing too much on your GFR - it's just a measurement and really is very general. Focus on how you feel, how your blood pressure is, and things related to your health. You won't notice a different between GFR 80 and GFR 50 - it really isn't until your GFR is fairly low that issues start appearing.
@@DADVICETV what's numbers are low for you feel?
Thanks Mr. James to share your CKD experience with all of us. You are brave enough to fight. l was also diagnosed CKD stage 3b (creatinine 189) last year May 2020 and was broken hearted till l started watching your videos, it gave me courage and Now my creatinine level is 141 .
Appreciate your courage and giving guidelines to others .
God bless you.
Thanks for sharing and great to have you here in our community. Our community is a great source of support, motivation, and hope.
What did you do, or what did you change to change your numbers?
@@DADVICETV I have protein urea issue but no diabetic I am kindly advise how to lower protein in urine. Age 68
plz guide
How old you are from which country you belong.Would you like to share your current position please will help others to maintain their kidney health
Very wonderful resource from a kind heart. Very grateful to you! I have had a bizarre history since i noticed i had slipped to efgr59. I knew it was on account of my BP as i had known of the relationship. Immediately, i started taking lots of water and it shot up to 62. Unfortunately, my physician just said everything was normal so i wasnt paying too much attention. Just last year February, i did my annual meds and realised it efgr was 55. Started searching for remedies with more water and green tea and guess what, a repetition of my meds just last week saw my efgr at around 35. Very significant drop. Now, i have just changed my BP drugs and going to follow a strict regimen on food. I am inspired by your videos that if there is the will and with a great deal of luck, it can be overcome so much. Thank You
How are you now ?
Hi My creatinine was 19 then came down to 12, i got 4 sessions in dialysis but still hope's on recovering through diet and help from your videos. Thanks
Check out the videos I do with Dr. Ro and Dr. Butt - you'll find lots of helpful and encouraging info in those. Here is a link to Dr. Butt's guest appearances playlist: ua-cam.com/video/2A65hKeAQrU/v-deo.html
Good video & information. I will be keeping my eye out for Part 2 to this video. Thank you for being so positive. It is true that Nephrologists don't know enough about healing Kidneys. Keep up the great work James. I am sure you will reach your goal !!
Omg, I just discovered your videos and after watching them I feel so much better. My mother's doctor just told her that her creatinine is at 1.4 and it is not good. Right now I am stressing out. Your video really helps me to believe that there are things I could do. I believe that her creatinine is this high because she had been sick for a long time so all she eats are blended meat mixed with rice porridges every day. I think the protein is causing her level to be this high. She doesn't have any fibers in her diet which I will start incorporating after watching your videos.
Ace - glade you found my channel. You mom is actually very lucky to discover her Kidney issues so early. Being sick will also throw off her test and most people start to see decreased kidney function as they get older. I'm sure her doctor will recommend a change in her diet. It will seem a little extreme at first, but she'll get used to it and find lots of great alternatives. After just a few months I no longer missed the old foods that were the key staples of my unhealthy diet (like Big Macs, French Fries, Ice Cream, etc.). I'm just a few minutes away from uploading Part 2 of what I feel were the most important things to improve my health - check it out and I'm sure you'll find more helpful information. Good luck and it really warms my heart that you are concerned and helping your mom! There is so much conflicting (and bad) info out there and having someone help is amazing!
@@DADVICETV thank you so much for responding. God blesses you and I pray that everything you wanted will come true. Stay strong and healthy.
You aare god given to us dadvice T.V/ you give me hope to live ,,,,
Hello sir my brother suffering from ckd 5 on dialysis 2 time a week please help me sir to lower createnine
You talked about Ibuprofen and it's dangers. My wife used to take Tylenol twice a day on the advice of her old doctor. She died because of liver failure caused by the Tylenol.
Im sorry for your loss.
Same happened to a dear friend and mentor of mine :/
Thank you so much!! I feel better knowing there's hope. Blessings 🙌
You are a great person.. you are doing a very noble thing by sharing all your experience.. in such detail...
Praised God you have good self control and did best to improve or heal yourself by studying and following the goodness and effectivity and ev3n share to all people suffering kidney troubles. Thanks and Godbless you more. 🙏☝️❤️😘
Hi, I need help. My Gfr is 72. I am 40. Any suggestions?
I am not sure why you are more concerned about potassium than phosphorous, and why you are worried about potatoes but not meat. Dropping meat is probably the best thing you can do to avoid causing further damage (Although it is actually meat plus inflammation, probably. Since meat causes inflammation this distinction might be moot). Especially avoid meats that come with lots of preservatives like hot dogs and sliced lunch meats. I agree with you about ibuprofen. If you need this sort of pain relief, a better alternative is a shot of tart cherry juice. If you need it because of workout muscle pains, consider eating watermelon.
If I am wrong about potatoes I would love to see the studies demonstrating this. I always want to get better.
Edit. It should also be noted that French Fries have 3 times as many calories as baked potatoes by weight, so are not what is being discussed here.
Millions of people are true carnivores-they eat only meat, chicken and fish and have Zero inflammation. They actual went carnivore to reduce inflammation. You should read up on it. Dr. Berg, Dr. Berry, Dr.Caffe, Myzerocarblife, Laura Path, I could go on and on so much info on UA-cam!
@@jillf24agreed been on it since October 2 after a huge tumor scared my life. No more meds nothing. My mental health has never been better. At first I was like bullshit I tried it cause I was desperate. Well I did and I don't even have an eating disorder anymore. I was so thin and frail that I was literally killing myself slowly. No more. Never been happier. Never knew how sick I was till I started feeling good.
thank you so much James, you are a great hope.
I wish I had the time to watch all your videos; but I doubt I would have the time to put all your information into my mind, and then the time to put it into action to help myself.
I wish you had a printable version of the diet you used to help yourself, it would be much easier if you did for those of us older people to follow for the short time we have left, thank you, God bless.
Check out this book - it is amazing and will have most of what you need: go.dadvicetv.com/book
I just want to say thank you for your family.
Why would anyone downvote this?
I get lots of downvotes with each video - and almost 5 right away from the admins of one of the largest Facebook Kidney groups. I am banned for being "too positive to really have CKD" and they do their best to try and discourage people from listening to me and all of the experts I bring on. But it doesn't bother me - at least people are finding the videos and over time they may learn something that can help improve their lives.
@@DADVICETV thank you so very much for giving people hope. And actual stuff THEY cam do to positively effect and have real change on thier situations. I cant thank you enough. And shame on them people downvoting you. They must just be a bunch of cons.
Doctors make money on dialysis.
I don’t have kidney disease but I am always excited to watch your vedio..I am so happy to see that your vedio have ads now,I hope you will get better🙏.
Thank you! One day I will be posting a bloopers video - keep an eye out for that and it should have you laughing like crazy. You won't believe the mistakes I make while making these. :-)
You have helped me so much. Thank you very much!
Happy to help!
Good morning from Houston Texas. Thank you for sharing information . Always watching your videos.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you soo much for sharing your journey!
Can we try to work with legislators to do something about Ibuprofen? I feel the same as you.
You have given me some hope...I am stage 4 ckd
Hey thanks for the hope sir! Found I have stage 2 (GFR 80) yesterday...i had quit drinking for 6 weeks prior to knowing my kidneys had damage. Going to try your tips, hope I can get GFR to 90+ again
You got this! You're VERY lucky to have discovered so early. Make sure your doctor determines the underlying cause so that you manage that to prevent any additional damage. Making changes now has a very high chance of you never needing to worry about kidney failure!
Isn't 80 normal within normal range? The lab I go to says anything above 60 is within "normal limits" which I found strange, as the optimal numbers I read, should be in the 90s.
@@michelle75504 between 60 and 90 is stage 2 kidney disease
@@immers2410 no its not. there are many factors that are needed to before making that diagnosis. such as ...i quote "However, for values in the range of 60 - 89 mL/min/1.73 m2, doctors will consider kidney disease only if there is additional evidence of kidney damage, such as polycystic kidney disease (cysts in the kidneys), proteinuria (protein in the urine), or hematuria (blood in the urine). If there are no such abnormalities, GFR of > 60 mL/min/1.73m2 is regarded as normal"...
@@EspirituDeSilentio thanks for the correction
My brother is stage 5 and 10% function. They are talking about starting the process of dialysis and putting in the port today. After watching many of your videos, I am trying to convince him not to do it
If your brothers eGFR decline over time to 10%, then it may be time to consider having an access installed so that he ready for dialysis when needed. The latest recommendations are to start dialysis around eGFR 5, unless there are other risk factors that cannot be addressed by medication. While diet and lifestyle changes along with managing blood pressure and blood sugar can help slow the progression of kidney disease in most people, with your brothers low kidney function. It may be too late to slow the progression. If your brother’s dropping kidney function is sudden, have him ask his doctor if this may just be an AKI in which he may be able to recover without dialysis to a higher kidney function or may only need dialysis for a short amount of time. It is difficult when the kidney function is so low since symptoms become present and time is not on your side. For me, I have been very lucky the last 5 1/2 years to get up to stage three and now I teeter on the border of stage three and stage four, with absolutely no symptoms now. My doctors believe I had an AKI on top of CKD which drove my kidney function down into the single digits Due to dehydration.
Wow looking so much healthier now than the first few videos. Nice job.
I am so glad I found your videos. Thank you
Thanks so much for all the information you've provided
Hi james my egfr six weeks ago was31 today i did my blood work and egfr is 39 jean.
Thank-you so much! I just heard that I have stage 3 a (55) but will be retested soon. Currently have a bladder / kidney infection but am also overweight.
How are you now Bonnie ?
Lucky that you were blessed with such a great Dr! The Drs here in my country, are only interested in getting rid of you as fast as possible & are not interested in discussing much or helping you get the right treatment or support, etc. It's like a conveyer belt system, in, out, neeeeeext! Kaching! Done. They're just not interested. And they get very irritated & impatient and act insulted when you question them. And I can't afford private Drs & private care/treatments. Specially can't afford a dietician!! How am I ever going to get better?? According to the blood work I just had done, I skipped from 100% normal to beginning Stage 3 in 6 months! 59.3 - It's not cancer coz those nrs are healthy!
How are you doing now ?
5x cherry concentrate, moringa powder, acacia fiber and iodine.
keep up the good fight for health😊
I am on stage 5 and my doctor told me my kidney is scaring, my kidney function is only 13% they are already introducing me for dialysis. Then i stumble upon your video i am hoping as i follow what you did i can reverse my kidney function though they say kidney scaring is hard to reverse, I don’t feel fatigue or itchiness on my skin or even i never loose my appetite. It kinda give me hope when i see your video. Thank you!
Saad Alqarni i am already 40 years old
same i am 11% and pregnant. i need to terminate my baby. may i ask does your kidney size is shrink or is okay?
@@memoryla hi my kidney is ok, I’m so sorry to hear that, my doctor here in canada already told me if i am planning to have a baby don’t ever do it , he said it is very dangerous for me and the baby or it maybe survived but will have a lot of complications because of the medications i am taking. So no kids for me.
How are you doing now?
Thank you James!
Thank you for putting these together. !!!!
Low inflammation kidney-friendly diet. (Phos phosphorous, excess potassium, no potatoes no avocado) . Use good supplements (fiber, benefiber, D3 CoQ10, B6, B12, omega-3, and others). Pro-renal + D.
NO SODA AT ALL.
Thanks for caring.
Thanks so much! Your are GREAT!!!!!
Glad it helped!
If humans can dso this we alao can bring ourt pets back. Im going through it bow with my dog. Im trying for the life of me to keep this dog alive.
Love your videos. Has helped my attitude. I just learned I have been diagnosed with stage 3 GFR 41. What books do you recommend? Did you reach your goal of reaching stage 2? I am in KY.
How are you doing now? Have you improved?
Interesting videos, thanks for sharing. I’m 42 years old & had CKD since 2017, I’m now GFR 31 (down from 34 in Feb) with creatinine >200.
I am the same as you. I need to follow these recommendations
My Sister has createnine of 585. We're addressing this with diet because we don't have money for the operation or dialysis. I pray there's hope.
Excellent 👍
Thank you. I needed this.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, Dad! 😊 Hang in there!
What blood pressure medicine you take James ?
My egfr fluctuates. One month it will be 63 and then 6 months later its 83. What do you think this means? My albumin, protein, BUN, Calcium levels are normal, but my creatinine is a tad high at 136. I had high blood pressure a few years ago and I had bad kidney stones last summer that completely shut off both my kidneys until I was hospitalized.
+RubberWilbur I am not a doctor, but hydration plays a big roll in your labs. Just being slightly dehydrated, having a higher muscle mass, and having done some exercise can all increase your creatinine levels. Creatinine is also added in a variety of supplements to help build muscles. Your primary care physician should be able to help narrow down the cause. It never hurts to eat a balanced and healthy diet - avoiding things which can harm your kidneys. Your GFR will also decrease with age.
Avoid:
Soda
Juice
Ibuprofen/advil
Part 01
This was great 👍
Proper thank you.
I thank God for using you to put this videos together to encourage lost hopes thank you n I pray for more grace sir.
So nice of you. When I was in the ICU I had an experience that made me think of how fragile our lives really are. I am using this 2nd chance to improve my health and help others do the same. Thanks.
Well said... Amen!
I am happy to listen to this video. Stage 4 . What supplement can i take for the bone.
The prorental vitamin do you think you could of just took that in stage 5? Doesn't that not have enough omegas in it?
what foods cause high bun?
How did she help reduce the pills you took?
Who are your 5 renal dietitians you use?
what is the name of the fiber you use to sprinkle on your food can't find the video you spoke about this on
What were the fiber pill form you take, I couldn't understand the name. Thanks
What?Chitosan capsules do you take please?
Can you please share from what GFR level has it come down to?
YOU ARE THE BEST!!
Thank you!
Good advice and thanks , gives me hope. I’m stage 5 and have been this way for three years without dialysis. Drs don’t have an explanation why I’m able to function well at this stage. I take a regimine of meds daily and watch my diet for phosphorus and potassium. I also take binders for those. If I was stricter like you said could my numbers improve. My labs are high creatinine and low GFR but I’m stable for all this time. I’d love to get to stage 3,and be off some of these meds. Can it be done. I lost my right kidney 3 years ago due to an infection and I had PKD but didn’t know it for years. I had no symptoms.
Can you make a video of resources? Books, who is Dr Barry and what is his name spelling, etc.
I don't know how my kidney & other organ ... good .. little bad ... worse : but since I watched your video..... lho be everybody take this as priority as daily information.. also you as a person everybody should love.. thank...so so much.. my Dadvice
Is it true that kidney restore bio fibre helps kidney to improve gfr and decreases creatine level
Yes it does. It worked for me very quickly. I had the powder form and put it in my water or I put it in my oatmeal
Hello everyone I come to you in desperation for advice. My mother is i in chronic is in stage 4 they took her off of dialysis she was somewhere between 19 and 20% kidney function she was doing well until a few months later when her refrigerator broke and she for a couple days ate some junk food for example Subway sandwich and one hamburger well when she went to the doctors to take a blood test her GFR level when from that 19 or 20% down to 15 or 17% I don’t want her to go back to dialysis please guys I’m in desperation can anybody recommend any type of diet to correct and help her improve the GFR i’m heartbroken and In tears I don’t want to have to go back to dialysis that place is hell on earth
Just in case you didn't see my response on another thread, I'm going to paste my response here in addition:
The most impactful and critical thing I did to improve my kidney health has been working with a renal dietitian and STICKING to what they recommend. A Renal dietitian is a life changer for many with CKD - if there is the possibility of improving, they are one of the best to help. A renal dietitian can also help with how to eat at places like Subway and other quick serve restaurants. Is your mom working with a renal dietitian? Are there things you can do to help her stay on her diet? I'm pretty good with my diet, but if the kids leave snacks laying around, it's hard to fight to temptation. It may be helpful to remove all the foods which are not good for her and make sure she is stocked up on a variety of good foods for her diet (based on what the renal dietitian recommends).
Dadvice TV - Kidney Health Coach Thank you I appreciate your advice very much. I’m going to follow The steps I seen insome of your videos and ask her doctor for a Renal dietitian hopefully it’s not too late and she could stay off of dialysis. She doesn’t have any snacks Near her The only time she ate junk food was when the refrigerator was broke down we eat out a couple days and she had a couple of tuna sandwiches during the two days. But her diet usually consisted of fish and red meat such as steak from what I seen in your videos it seems like it’s better to go to a vegetable diet with some fish and chicken because that will put less stress on the kidneys. What I did discover is one of her favorite soups had a lot of sodium in it. So I decided to remove that soup from her diet. I’m also making sure she drinks more water. Hopefully she could increase her renal function back to 27 near 30. I’ll keep watching your videos. you always give great
Thank you so much for the advice. What does the endocrinologist and urologist do?
Great video!!!!
Hi, James. When you said from stage 5 to stage 3. Did you mean the kidneys get healthier, get better, or their conditions are the same? Our health is better just because we eat the suitable foods and reduce the work load for the kidneys? Is vitamin K2 good for kidneys when combined with D3?
You mentioned you take true lemon and add to water that your drink in one of your videos Dave. Does it give one diabetes if you take them daily ? Will they affect the kidneys negatively ?
Simply plant based diet if you want to improve your kidney don't eat fish, meat, and egg.
Creatinine was 8 . So far it has reduced to 6.8
Fantastic! I like to look at percentages and that is a a 15% drop! Yeeee Haaaa!
What is your GFR?
Hi, how do I lower protein in my urine
Excellent advice!
As long as protein leaks into urine CDK is there and better GFR does not mean CDK has improved
Check out all the videos I've created on reducing protein leakage - those will help you in working with your healthcare team to try and reduce yours. It's worked great for me - went from excessive protein to eventually trace, to now none.
@@DADVICETV Thank you very much for your advice. If glomeruli is damaged nothing can repair it and while eating less protein can reduce protein leakage but it does not unfortunatelt fix the impaired glomeruli.
Hi sir, i stumbled your video. i diagnosed with cdk stage 5 and my efgr is 11%. Right now i need to terminate my baby because else i need to start dialysis asap. Can i ask does your kidney shrink or is it normal size? Please reply thank you so much

hi James did you talk all this supplment at stage five or when you in stage 4 or 3( Vitamin D3, Vitamins B6 and B12, Omega 3, Renal Multivitamin called Pro-Renal+D w/Omega3 andCoQ10 )
I luv all your information, how mg do you take of COq10?? I read it also helps your BP
Here is the one I take: amzn.to/2H0QPvx They also carry it at Walmart. I like this version since it is said to absorb better. I take 1 100mg capsule each morning.
100 Mgs is Fine Per day..I take the Gummies
Hello my left kidney gfr is 1.5 and right kidney gfr 68.2. Doctor advised me to remove my left kidney. Is it possible to reverse my kidneys?
what is the names of the kidney friendly BP pill?
Which one?
ACE inhibitors have renal protective functions. Lowers Blood Pressure relaxes nephrons.
Might have stage four diease and like your videos and what is the name of the book you use? What tablets do you have if you dont mind? On ramipril, aborvastin, ampolodine and sertartine a anti depressant
My GFR IS 68.2 . What my chances of getting above 80
A person can live a full normal life with an eGFR over 60 and never see a single symptom. What's important is to live a heart-healthy lifestyle - whats good for your heart is good for your kidneys. No smoking, keep your blood pressure and blood sugar controlled, stay active, and have fun!
@@DADVICETV what about foods ? Do you recommend i go plant based or no fried foods etc …
Where can we download the anti-inflammatory kidney diet?
