- Episode 29: Fasting And Kidney Disease: A guide to improving kidney function with intermittent fasting. Is fasting and kidney disease safe or can it cause additional kidney damage? I found intermittent fasting helpful for me during my fight against chronic kidney disease and I strongly recommend you talk to your doctor to see if intermittent fasting may be a beneficial part of your strategy to fight chronic kidney disease and improve your kidney function. The results of intermittent fasting before and after can be shocking - in a good way.

Intermittent fasting is eating on a set schedule while fasting (not eating) for certain prolonged periods of time. Can have water, unsweetened tea or coffee during the fasting period, but that is all.
Lots of researching showing the potential benefits of intermittent fasting for a number of issues people face. It is very common and effective with certain diets, like the Keto diet. But what about a chronic kidney disease diet?
As mentioned, you can only have water, unsweetened tea, and unsweetened coffee during the intermittent fasting period. It is a lot easier than you think! You are not going to go a whole day without eating! I myself fast for about 18 hours every day. There are fasting methods where you don’t eat for an entire day, but that is just too difficult, and I have found no data showing that is any better than the partial fasting I’m talking about.
The easiest way to take advantage of intermittent fasting is to extend the fasting you are already doing while you are asleep. I eat my first meal around noon, then a snack a few hours later, and then finish my dinner by 6pm. That 6-hour window is when I eat, the rest of the day, including while I am asleep, I’m fasting.
You may not be able to change over to an 18 hour fast every day - you may need to work yourself up to it, and the common target is 16 hours of fasting with an 8-hour window for eating. For most people they push their first meal, typically breakfast, later and eat dinner earlier. Then a week or so later they do that same thing again, shortening their eating window and increasing their fasting window.
Is it helpful for Kidney Disease patients?
First, you always need to speak to your health care team before making any changes to your diet or treatment plan. But for me, it was a game changer, both while on the renal diet from stage 5 to stage 3, and now while on the Keto diet. My renal dietitian recommended it to me and I’ve been doing it since shortly after being diagnosed.
Benefits of Intermittent Fasting and kidney disease:
• It certainly helps your body with inflammation - and that is something everyone with kidney disease should be concerned about. Putting stress on your kidneys causes inflammation which decreased their filtering ability, can damage more nephrons (the little filters), which drops your GFR and increases waste and toxins in your blood.
• It also helps your body manage the stress placed on it.
• It can help promote and accelerate weight loss - Lose weight fast!
• Helps manage and regulate your blood sugar. Important to keep an eye they don’t go to low if you are diabetic. Your health care team can help you there.
• Your kidneys are now focused on processing the current state of your blood and not fighting against digestion which is constantly changing it.
Eat your more fatty foods and lower carbs during your last meal of the day. The fat keeps you feeling full and makes it possible to go your entire fasting window without snacking. Lower carbs have been shown to help you sleep better, and getting sleep is very important for all of us.
Fasting is much easier for men. It is harder for women due to hormone levels but don’t let that stop you if your health care team recommends intermittent fasting for you.
To help ease yourself into this schedule, pick 2 non-consecutive days to do this first, such as a Monday and Wednesday. Do a 12 hour fast - finish dinner by 7pm and don’t eat again until 7am on those days. On those days don’t do heavy exercise, just stick to the basics like walking, yoga, and playing with the kids. You can then slowly expand this to more days, then more hours until you find the right balance for you.

Hey James, I have been watching your videos off and on for a while now. Very happy you have improved your Kidney function and given so much hope to others who are affected by this. I have heard conflicting results regarding fasting effects on kidneys, so it's great to get your honest opinion on the matter. My question is have you done any research regarding stem cells on kidney function? Mesenchymal stem cells have been reportedly praised for reducing inflammation so I thought this could be a good topic. Thank you.
Thank you so so much James for your precious videos ! Already shared . .
So glad to hear you're getting healthier ! Awesome . . What is the number of hours that someone healthy need to fast? Is 14hrs enough or is 16hrs needed? Thanks
I didn't start fasting until I was on dialysis, it was the single best thing I have ever done medically for myself.
What sort of fasting did you do?
@@maztergee water fasing.
I am on dialysis and am just starting to fast have questions about your experience with fasting awilliamsder@gmail.com
Did you get better
@@ritwikamaity8049 I haven't come off dialysis if that's what you're asking, but the benefits to fasting gave me a better fighting chance.
Hello, I a 58 year old female. My dad just past away. My doctor just told me my kidney function keeps going down, and now he wants me to go to see my urologist about the low kidney function of my one kidney that I have. I've been turning to youtube for the questions I had about it. Low and behold Dadvice comes up. It's like the holy spirit (pentecostals believe in this) is talking to me. Both Dad and vice at a time when things bad are happening out of control. Thank you for being on you tube when I needed it.
Brother I just wanted to thank you for the channel and all of your great information. My kidneys were damaged by chemotherapy for non-Hoskins Lymphoma. I have used time restricted eating along with a mostly plant based diet to reverse from stage 4 right on the verge of stage five down to stage 3b. Thanks for your help and information, you do a terrific job.
I think the most enjoyable part of this video is seeing your personal success and resultant exuberance, and happiness due to your victory. I am really glad for you.
Finally you touch on this subject. I've been wanting to ask you about intermittent fasting for awhile now. Perfect timing!
Glad you like it - it is certainly something I strongly urge others to ask their doctors/dietitians about.
I'm so happy that your channel is growing at such a fast rate. Congrats. You're doing a great service to people with kidney disease.
Thank you - I too am so happy to see it growing. As it gets larger it will be much easier for me to get specialist to interview to add even more helpful information. Thanks again!
I am 3rd stage kidney patient and looking at you am tempted to try IMF. But I m 77 yrs old and slim so would not like to lose weight. I would like to try the 12 hrs window. Can u guide me. My creatinine is 3.1 and I would like to avoid dialysis.
@@josephinerodrigues1735 While most people use Intermittent Fasting to help accelerate weight loss, it is easy to adjust for that. If you eat enough calories during the eating-window, you can easily maintain, or even gain weight. Even with my reduced caloric intake, there have been weeks where I gained 3-5lbs due to not getting my exercise, even while on a Keto diet with Intermittent Fasting. The best way to ease into IMF is to start with an evening cut-off to stop eating. Pick a time that is comfortable for you, perhaps 8pm. Then dont eat or snack after that time until your first meal the next day. After a few days or a week, move the cut-off time an hour earlier, and maybe your first meal a half hour later. Continue doing this until you have comfortable created your fasting routine. For many people, they target 16 hours of fasting and 8 hours of eating. Eat a higher fat last meal to help keep you full longer and avoid hunger - and good fats are recommended. Your doctor can recommend fats to eat for you and help you with IMF - it is important to always keep your doctor in the loop. Good Luck!
Your trial and experience is better than any doctor ! Iam impressed by the love and concern for others love from a priest l
I love you ! You are definitely a godsend! Thank you and God Bless you 🙏🏼
Found this extremely beneficial video by chance. I am Diabetic and Hypertensive for more than two decades and now have been diagnosed with Kidney problem. Lots of medicines prescribed by the Doctor. Decided to go for Intermittent Fasting and today is the 4th day. Have easily managed to adjust to the 16:8 schedule. Would highly appreciate help from elders in this path. Am now more determined to succeed after wathching this video.
:
How are you doing today ? Still looking for elders ?
I love you Dadvice. This information saved my life. Now, I’m getting better and better everyday in every way.
What did you do ti beat that kidney disease? How you deal anemia and muscle cramps? What is your prefer food? Hiw much do you eat? Im from the Philippines.. Pls help me.. Thanks..
Thankyou Dad for your endlessly caring & advices, we will be cured, we will be the winners...(we means
my darling combatants & l). Even the war is feroce, the wicked irreversible KD shatters many life. How many victims fell in this battle , including my husband died in pain 3 years ago (he had no time to know about 2 words keto)... But you , you are
my hero , you triumph stade 5, 4, 3 then 2,1,,you look
so well so healthy...You give us a ray of light, a ray of
hope, a ray of love... If one day l fell out of wagon, surely l will run with my whole heart and catch the train again. Don't worries.
Please don't give up, my darling fellow warriors.
I💖U.Jade.
PS:I follow your renal diet & keto diet of Dr Berry.
Eat no sugar (mm cake wait me, it s tough part)
Very low carbs, no bagel, no pasta ,no pizza
Much fat, butter,olive oil avocat eggs, chicken,tuna sardine steak pork
veggies..allthings you teach us in many videos...
And IF drink water, coffee ,green tea ,dandelion tea...
And walking,
Bye.Thankyou 🤹♂️🤹♀️
A vegan and GLUTEN free diet is best for you.
@@maamedansowaa1520 It depends. If you already have kidney disease your body can not process many of the minerals in certain vegetables and fruits. For example spinach and bananas are killers. I don't see what gluten get's you, unless you have a wheat allergy - or inflammation caused by wheat. Most people benefit from a keto diet because it has no inflammation and many of the minerals in fruits and vegetables. Vegan diet might be good if you are healthy.
Thank you for this helpful video! Have a blessed day!
i just got diagnosed stage 3. I needed this video, this is somet hing i can do.
Thanks once again for info I have never considered. Always inspiring 😀
Glad to heat that - good luck and good health!!
Thanks, James the research was nominal for kidney benefits.
This is so good to hear that you’ve reversed by 2 stages! Wow
Great Video. One of the major benefits , which dadvice alluded to is the cleanup that your body does when its not actively processing injested food. It goes throw a cell review phase(aka maintenance), in which is uses any cells not running at optimal for energy, these cells are then replaced with new, when you have next meal(simplified). Also since insulin is low, your body will start utlising fat stores for energy, so its a win win
I really love this guy. So positive about such a scary thing = KD.
Thank you james!
Hi Dad, love what you do. 🙏🏼 I practice intermittent fasting and have since before my transplant failed 1 year ago. Its so great to see someone on top of their kidney health. And yes we should always discuss issues, ideas and problems with our doctors. However I must say, many renal doctors aren't as update with some of the things that you cover, as we would like them to be. Some don't have a clue, and aren't even willing to research and find out. You seem to have a great relationship with your team. I just wish we all had. Brilliant channel, love your work. All the best in the future. 🙏🏻
Please tell me how the fasting helped your kidneys, I need support, as you know the doctors and even the "experts" are idiots, at least I am smart and can read scientific literature better than them :) At this point I want to hear personal stories of recovery, I feel lonely through this.
well also they dont want us to know how to heal are selves cause they be out of a job this medical system is a racket i believe but there are some good doctors out there
@@someoneusa Maria what stage of KD are you in?
@@annettegenovesi Was stage 3. Hoping to keep it there. I've been able to get it to 2, so now I bounce between 2-3.
@@someoneusa Way to go Maria. If you're inclined to, I'd like to hear more about your condition.
Great advice, God bless you!
You are adorable. You have an engaging way of discussing the issues. Thanks 😊
Thanks for watching!
The beauty about doing an 18/6 fasting protocol is the body will use up stored fat and you also get other benefits from Intermittent Fasting as well.
I am 54 and don't have kidney disease, but my GFR was dropping. In 2014, it was >90 (ideal). In 2016, it dropped to 89. In 2019, it dropped to 86. I started getting concerned about this trend and my doctor at the time said, "oh, you're just aging and it will continue to decline, as long as your gfr doesn't go under 70 you're fine". That didn't sit well with me because it seemed at the rate i was going, my gfr would be under 70 by the time i was in my 70's. Then, in August of '21 i started time restricted eating, specifically eating only within a 6-hour window (18/6). My reasons for taking up TRE were unrelated to my declining gfr, but imagine my surprise when 6 months later my bloodwork from my physical revealed that my gfr had gone up to 107! Quite the unexpected side benefit!
You give me hope! I'm 39 and otherwise healthy, but after having COVID four months ago and probably getting long COVID my GFR dropped from 115 to 66 :( I hope I'll recover and hopefully time restricted eating will help. Best wishes for your health!
@@mathmo hi, now how are u?
Thank you dadvice I’m a dialysis patient,when I found your programs.since then ,my energy is so very Amazing thank you more and god bless you, from Philippines.live in California.
+Wilfredo Igna Thank you for your support. I visited the Philippines when I was young - it is where my brother was born. I also used to live is Mission Virgo California - loves the weather there!
atleast you have money for dialysis
rose mary I’m am paying my treatment now every month.im so depressed.
How is your health now?ur on diyalisis now?
Thanks for the info. I believe in you and what you have accomplished. I'm going to fight this ckd stage 4. I'm tired of feeling like I'm going to die.
You can do it Kreg! Believe me, when you start to feel better it is AMAZING. You forget just how great it feels until you have to suffer with the symptoms of kidney disease, then when you are able to get better it is like a tidal wave of positivity! I am so close to my super high energy outgoing self now and you can really see it comparing my first video to my latest video. Intermittent Fasting and getting my RBC into range really made a huge difference (which also brings up your Hemoglobins).
@@DADVICETV thanks for the advice. It will make a difference in my life. I'll stay in touch with you and let you know how I'm doing. I got a long road ahead of me. God willing I can turn this ckd back to a three or better. It want be easy. Hardest thing I've ever had to do at 65. Took it 40 years to reach stage 4.
@@kregscott6750 it will be fine. We csn do it. We are fighters... Lets just make our strict diet
You can do it. I'm in the process of reversing mine!
Hey, how are you doing now? What did you do for your kidneys? What was your GFR?@@janetdarby3656
So glad I finally found a channel about kidney disease ....ckd 30
Glad you are here. In addition to watching the videos, many other CKD patients share tips and experience in the comments. We are a community that supports each other - we are all warriors fighting this battle and together we are far more powerful. Welcome!
I was doing intermittent fasting for a few months, but was still urinating frequently and constipated at the same time. I then did a 3 day extended fast (several decaffeinated varieties), on the 3rd day the kidney stop shedding so much water, and stayed like that after I resumed eating. A month later I did it again (this time eating one mini cucumber for each meal), and it reduced it more. Now my urine is now more concentrated, and it’s been a few months since that last fast. I think I had too much sugar (from sugar, bread, pasta, potato, rice I’d eaten) stored in my body, and the kidney was expelled newly arrived sugar along with lots of water. A kitchen safe box was also handy.
Very good information Good on You
I appreciate the video
Thanks for the info
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. Very helpful...I see this was 4 years ago. I need to see if you made any updates on your kidney function. I'm hoping you are stage 1 or better by now
Thanks a lot
Amazing message ❤
Thanks you for video
Thank you very much daddy James for your advice. Its very helpful.i have started to experience one of the Symptoms of Kidney disease which is frequent and decreased urine. am not experiencing other symptoms and note sure which stage of CKD am in...i must certainly see a Doctor for diagnosis...right now am very scared but your videos has enlighten me on many helpful information on the disease. Thanks a lot.
Glad to hear the videos help. Don't miss the live shows every Tuesday with renal dietitian Jen Hernandez - tons of great info and LIVE chat!
Thank you so much
This is a great channel with lots of sensible clear advice. I’m glad I found this. Thank you.
I'm glad you are here Julian! While not everyone can improve, it's worth the effort to see how we each respond to diet and lifestyle changes. Are you currently working with a dietitian (that is the single most helpful thing I've done since being diagnosed)?
Dadvice TV - Kidney Health Coach not yet as I have not yet been referred to one by my doctor. I’m having further tests. I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and this was caused by my reduced kidney function. I am currently making changes so I can live as healthily as possible. I am drinking lots of water and eating as clean as I can with lots of fruit vegetables and salad. Cutting down on processed food and reducing salt intake. Your channel is giving me lots of good advice and a better understanding of CKD. Thank you for your help. My blood pressure is now back down to normal levels due to medication. So I’m just looking at ways to improve my kidney function and heal my.body through diet exercise and any means possible. I know there are no guarantees but it’s well worth trying! Keep up your great work.
@@DADVICETV with kidney disease, can I eat at dawn between 4am and 5am and then do dry fasting? 6am to 6pm. No drinking or eating.
Great sir.

This is great
I liked the vidio masha'Allah thank you so much it's really helpfull👍

Hi Dad I became a new subscriber today I notice in a video you recommended plant based protein did you now change your mind on that? Thank you for great videos
That is amazing! I'm stage 2. I want to start right away. I need to learn what modified keto is. I will do the 12pm to 6pm.
At stage 2 you have LOTS of room in your diet which will make Keto even easier. I had to keep an eye on Potassium (Avocados and Tomatoes), Magnesium, and dairy. I kept my fats to good fats - no hamburger meat or hot dogs. A low carb diet would most likely benefit everyone and the extremely low carb of Keto can really help with weight loss, break insulin resistance, and help with diabetes.
You're better than me. I was stage 3a, using intermittent fasting I'm now stage 2. Good luck!
@@locvu6185 really! I am on stage 3, I hope if I can move to stage 2
@@DADVICETV hai, is it consider intermittent fasting when I'm having only two meal a day, which is one at 130pm and the other one is at 9pm. from 10pm until 1pm the next day i dont have any meal except for water and a fruit
@@DADVICETV is rice and bread consider as carb? can you teach me on how to do keto diet for someone at stage 2
Great stuff...Thanks, man.
Thank you! If you can, catch the Tuesday LIVE shows with a renal dietitian. Great info and tips plus you can ask questions!
HI, hope you are reading messges from old vids. I wrote you awhile ago when I first found, by accident I had stage3 CKD. It's a result of negligence which is still happening, it's a mess. Now it looks like I have autoimmune issues but appointments are so drawn out, who knows when I'll have answers. It's frustrating because I read all the literature and as many studies as I can get my hands on and I want to make sure I do not end up on dialysis but the doctors continued to not be concerned because I am so healthy. That's why they should be concerned and finding the cause so that I can stop the progress. I do everything on my end and most of the job my doctors should be doing. I have always lived a health and fitness life, my diet just gets cleaner and cleaner and cleaner. My gfr was normal, but too high for my vegetarian diet ages ago. I didn't know, I wasn't as involved in my health as I am now, always trusted doctors who let me go on with a vit D level under 20 (as I'm constantly going in for chronic issues) and didn't care I was in stage 1 even though I was healthy, perfect body mass, fit, young. I should have had an very high gfr.
FF to now when I'm dealing with so many chronic medical issues because I was ignored due to good health. Dealing with the anger is a full time job but have to stay as positive as possible and keep the stress away. Got gfr up 30 pts in just a few months, it goes up and down, but stays in 2. My kidneys don't seem to like my weight training but it's the only thing that keeps me sane and I've cut to a few hours a week, where before I was training as a competitive athlete. I don't have protein in the urine, YET, and I want to keep it that way. They've atrophied and are only 8.5 cm, nephrologist said there is no regeneration after 9 cm. One was already atrophied over a year ago, I found an ultrasound that was never reviewed by my doctor, one was good. Now they are both atrophied. I'm at the point where there isn't much cleaning left to do, so back to fasting it is. I started daily IF during the early days plus an extended fast whenever I felt the need. Everyone told me I was crazy, it was dangerous and I was going to get sick. I knew better since I was raised by health conscience hippies who is an evidence based health freak, aka, I have read the science my entire life. All of my critics are now doing it. I was traveling, living out of a suitcase for 8 years, the fasting became sporadic.
I know that organ tissue can regenerate with fasting but I've yet to find any study or anecdotal account showing this is true with the kidneys. If you-or anyone reading this- has any input, I would appreciate it. Do you have kidney atrophy? I have researched this to death and there is no reason my kidneys should have so much damage, other than autoimmune. Working like mad, researching, and taking a full body approach. Have got to get rid of inflmmation, 30 years of chronic illness, despite insanely healthy lifestyle, multiple cities, states, countries, and as I look through my labs I realize no one has bothered taking CRP or any other inflammatory marker lab until my nephrologist ran the ant-dna and it came back positive.
PS I've been passing bits of kidney stones for almost 2 months now, ER refused to do CT scan, nephrology appt is next week. It's like they want to keep me sick and in pain.
Cut out sugar and bread,and see what effect that has. Sugar especially is a killer.
Bro this what you said about fasting our prophet Mohammed peace be upon him teaches us and all his life where fasting 2days a week am Muslim am proud
Get up early before sun and eat to the full belly and when sun sets, have a full belly, so dont have food for less than 12 hours.
That is not fasting in the sense, discussed here.
Alhamdulillah I'm Also muslim
@@darshowket9738 Thank god I am not a muslim
"Peace be upon him....Peace be upon him....Peace be upon him...."
Why don't you say, "Peace be upon me"???
Arab Christian here and proud of it!!
I find it easy to do 20:4 3pm to 7pm window I have a lot of weight to lose also that’s partly why.
Hi! What affects do prolonged fasting (48-72 hours) have on your kidneys and creatinine levels?
Wow i will try this kind of fasting
How do you incorporate your medication scheds with you fasting sir? Thank you in advance.😊
I exercise at fasted state the go in the sauna after exercise before breaking my fast. I fast 48hours once a month
How do you find the motivation? I want to live and do better for myself. You have gave me insight to do better for myself.
Great question and I am asked that all the time. This is going to sound crazy, but every morning I wake up and have a playlist I listen to of motivating songs I love. You can check out my playlist at music.apple.com/us/playlist/morning/pl.u-j4lWCpAZYG
I wake up to these songs, shower (and dance) to these, and listen to this while walking every day. I try to keep only positive people around me, and I always remember that I'm doing this for more than me...I'm also doing it for my 2 little kids.
I've made a game out of improving my results. I focus on small things - like my Hemoglobins - then work to improve that 1 small thing. I can't fix everything, but I can improve 1 thing with each set of labs. Seeing the improvements motivates me even more.
The last thing is this - right here - my videos and website. It helps me to be productive, I feel good seeing others learning stuff and doing better. This is part of my treatment.
Together, all of this keeps me motivated and going. Plus I love helping animals and the healthier I am, the more dogs I can rescue and help find their forever homes.
Hello: Could you please do a video on Hypertension and CKD Stage 4 Diet. Many foods for HTN are not indicated for CKD and vice versa. A simple breakfast, lunch and dinner meal plan would help lots of patients. There are all sorts of videos on HTN or CKD, but none for patients who have both HTN and CKD
I want to to know also
Tnx a lot
I am 5 stage
So i wii do it
At stage 3 in July months ago and think I am at stage 4. Rather than wait passively to slip to stage 5 I began intermittent fasting this morning. What would be a reasonable time before next doing an eGFR test to see some change? And thank you so much for your video.
Have you thought about getting the awesome Dr fung nephrologist & fasting expert on? He's got some awesome videos! One more question, how long can someone actually fight CKD? Aka staying off dialysis
Hi Coach, are/were you taking blood pressure medication ? Thanks
Thank you James. I've kind of been doing this naturally on workdays, because I get up, have a cup of coffee, and run out the door to work. I skip lunch, and I'm back home by 5:00 to eat dinner. The reason I say "kinda", is because I do put half&half in the 2 cups of coffee I drink. I guess I should try it black for a while?
For fasting it would be better to cut back on the half & half (non-dairy creamer with no potassium or phosphorus I hope) - but what matters most is finding a "diet" you can stick with. I just announced a new LIVE show each Tuesday at 6pm EST which will include a Renal Dietitian. Check it out (and feel free to ask questions) for some more helpful tips!
@@DADVICETVOh, that sounds great James. I'll definately try to remember to check it out Tuesday. I have lots of questions. See I also get kidney stones. Way back when I was like 12 or so they said I have Sponge kidneys. So theresa higher incedence of developing stones. I've had about 10 or so (in 60 years). That's really not bad at all compared to other MSK patients who tell me they get some every month.
Sir good day what is messurement of your albuminuria
Thanks for your new Vidio.....
Hello, what is the treatment for a cyst on the college? Wait for an answer and thank you
this is great info! it’s all new to me. I’m just a bit confused when you said Keto diet because I was told by a friend to avoid protein at all cost. Is that accurate ?
All things being equal, protein is the lesser of two evils(ie carbs) as it can introduce a small insulin response, but its much lower than high carbs
Fasting is probably better than the 12 cups of coffee A day I was drinking the past few days...
Can you show us your meal prep?
Here's just a little advice. Try getting your BMI into your normal range and see how it affects your eGFR. May require you to lose weight but it will help a lot
When my weight went down my eGFR didn't change, but being a healthy weight is great for other elements a persons health.
I'm a type 2 diabetic, not sure the 24 hour fast would be doable. Although, doing the 16 or 18 hour fast would be more like it.
I am on dialysis, but I do itt from 11 to 3. I go three days a week. So how do I work intermittent fasting with that schedule?
Also i drink a glass of room temp or warm distilled water (only) with fresh organic squeezed lemon in it with a tsp. of chlorophyll and 15 drops of Rhemmania when i take my supplements. I think that has been a game changer too! 🙏😁🌻
@@swatipatil2367 you can google it for more details but its a potent natural herb that helos protect kidneys from further damage.
what stage are you in? how has that herb worked?
If you do keto diet, one meal a day, 23 to 1 fasting is very easy, you don’t even need to try. I am not in deep ketosis(measured) because my carb is limited but not to extend. Even though for me(not deep ketosis), I can do OMAD so easy.
One question would I lose weight or gain weaigjt from fasting? Maybe stay the same weight? I’m 20 and on dialysis. Because I’m not trying lose weight
If you’re controlling your blood sugar with diet and not using insulin injections, your blood sugar should not dip too low.. I control my blood sugar with intermittent fasting with a 4 to 6 hour eating window and it never drops too low.
John I can assure you that this Kreg Scott is alive and doing well thanks to James advice.
I haben in this 3 days.
I hope so
I just had my first GFR of 59, I am diabetic which I manage just with diet. I am not on any diabetes meds. My last AIC was 6.4. I started eating a nutritarian diet (fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, onions, beans, nuts, and seeds) in December of this year but added a small amount of lean meat back in over the past couple of months (my blood sugars have gone up slightly since adding in meat). I was on insulin and blood pressure meds prior to starting this diet, now I am off all insulin and all BP meds. I cannot imagine what may be contributing to my declining GFR. I have had elevated creatinine in the past but currently, it is normal. Any advice. (I will talk to my doctors).
Take the meat out of your diet again...that is what is causing the blow back on your kidneys
Hi. My mom was diagnosed stage 5 ckd, and ultrasound shown that she also have cysts, we don't know what to do. We need your help. Is it still safe to do fasting for this stage? Thank you
Why do you suggest that people with thyroid disease not do intermittent fasting? (I have hypothyroidism but do not take medication for it and GFR of 16). I tend to go at least 12 - 14 hours without eating. Is it better if I do not extend it to 16-18 hours? My kidney specialists has not told me one thing about diet and says it does not affect kidney disease. He just gives me Kayexalate for High Potassium and Calcitriol for high parathyroid hormone and something for high phosphorus.
I just ordered Prolon which is a 5 day mimiking fast. You only eat the food supplied and it supposidely is the same as fasting. Had anyone tried this yet?

I have been doing Intermittent Fasting for nearly 2 years now. Easy to do if you make sure you are satiated with your meals from the day before you do a 24 hour fast.
I agree, 24 hour fasting isn't difficult at all...black coffee is a great appetite killer
Metformin 500mg one time a day with Pravastatine 10mg is ok for kidneys CKD stage 3 ? Any information ?
If i do fasting, then i will reduce weight, which i think bad for health and so for kidneys, and also nutrients levels will also reduce?
How about 24 hours to 36 hours of water fasting for ckd
Can i do dry fasting with kidney disease?? Let's say i eat between 4 to 5am and then do dry fasting till 6pm. No eating and drinking within these hours until 6

How do you mean fixed you? Did you suffer from Kidney disease? Which type? Thanks
But are you a kidney patient?? Are you undergoing dialysis right now
Question for all those with kidney problems: Is lower back/ hip muscle soreness/ stiffness early in the morning, one of the symptoms of kidney problems? The kind of soreness that makes it difficult to bend and put socks on. If so, what kind of test did you do to find out?
While somewhat rare, lower back pain is a symptom of kidney issues. It could be a kidney stone, or with severe inflammation there can be pain. Some blood and urine test from your doctor can check the health of your kidneys.
Sounds more like arthiritis in Sİ joints
Can I do intermittent fasting if I'm on dialysis for twice a week sir?
Sir can i ask you something im on peritoneal dialysis for 3 months is it posibile for me to get this removed and stop my dialisys and dont die? Hope u notice me tnx sir
How about long days fasting?
Stage 5 regress to stage 3 …. That’s the first time I heard this thing like this. CKD could slow down or stop the progression from higher stage…
Muslims fast for 1 month every year in Ramadan. It's beautiful.
Muslims fast during the day and feast all night
Do I have to go on a keto diet and also do IF. I have no problem with weight. Bmi is 25.
No, you do not have to. I went on Keto because I was so over weight (BMi was over 35). Some people use Keto if they are type 2 diabetics to try and better manage their insulin (or eliminate it).
Hi I have ckd 3a and hypothyroid with auto immune antibodies. Have lost 3 stone in weight in 2 1/2years, I have no other disease processes going on. Is it safe for me to intermittent fast when I am trying to gain weight and muscle? Thank you for your helo😊
I got a great idea... Why don't you take two weeks worth of pictures of what you eat in a day and show us basically what you eating...
Question Dad: I am stage 3,,,have type 2 diabetes and need go lose 150 lbs. I have had great success doing extended water fasting.....WF always and eating only 2 kito meals/week...is that ok? Of course when in ketosis the appetite is suppressed. Will extensive wf be safe or do the same as intermittent fasting in regards to reversing my CKD?
I wish I had the answer, but that one really needs a dietitian who can look at your entire health. The type 2 is the challenge. Fasting and an ultra-low carb diet (Keto) can be amazing, especially when you exercise while in Ketosis. I strongly encourage you to work with a dietitian - they can work magic and help turbo charge your progress while keeping you safe from causing any serious issues. Good luck!
@@DADVICETV i have heard that many who do extended water fasting are taking daily electrolyte supplements...a daily powder to mix in water includes: Potassium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, etc...I heard that potassium is not good for those with ckd.....but when i did a 12 day water fast i felt great but did get dizzy (not from hpb as my blood pressure and bsg was normal after 6 days of water fasting)
Can you take beet fruit before the fasting
