Thanks for the info ! ❤
I have high blood pressure and my A1C is in diabetic stage and I am obese. My creatinine level is hi 0.6. My Doctor told me to continue to eat health to lose weigh to reduce the risk of kidney disease.
5 weeks ago I stopped eating meat. I might eat fish here and there but not so much. I’ve just stopped eating salty foods and sweets. I hope this helps my creatinine lower and traumatically reduce the risk of kidney disease in the name of Jesus. I have to do better with my health. I want to live a long time to enjoy life with my children ❤.
I pray you are able to stick to it. It's horrific to be on dialysis.
Boil barley with water, leave it overnight and drink the water in the morning. Do it for a month and you'll have good results
Does it help????
This is my second video in a row I am watching of you both, and it is so reassuring! I was diagnosed with CKD5 and have changed over to a Plant Based Diet, dropped coffee, alcohol, etc. I am steadily losing weight; almost 25Lbs. The way you talk about creatinine, and magnesium. Your whole whole manner of discussing these things just makes so much sense to me. Truly thank you for what you are doing and the knowledge that you are sharing. there is a whole lot of misinformation out there. When I listen to you I feel safe and I feel that I am truly learning something without all the fluff.
Hey gow r u now
He said 2 or 3 coffee's per day LOWERS creatinine.
How are you now? Good to see some positive text. What was your diet plan? Please share if you can
Dr. H your golden. Blessings to you and your family! 💯🙏🏽
Invaluable, succinct summary.
I love you dr hashmi.......weight loss should be mandatory in CKD
So coffee is good for lowering creatinine, but caffeine can raise blood pressure and higher blood pressure can raise creatinine? I don't know why some people think this stuff can be confusing.
Both of you creating great consciousness
Thank your Dr and Michelle ! Great information as always.
Thanks for watching!
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth What about blood sugar? Can lowering my A1C reduce Creatinine?
It is very informative. Thanks.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thanks so much for the informative videos they are amazing and top notch!
Glad you like them! Thanks for tuning in!
Great info. Thank you ! 😊
Very informative and useful advice going on.
Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent answers
I am taking KETOANALOGUE, and is effective for me. My creatinine lowered. And I only eat green leafy veggies and fish. No meat at all.
How much is your creatinine and how much time
it lower down after taking ketoanalogue
Z😂
If the person is not overweight, in fact underweight (104 lbs, 5 feet 3 inches), and already plant-based (low fat, low salt, no added sugar, does not eat vegan cheese or vegan processed foods), eat a high-fiber diet, and the creatine is high, what can the person do? What's causing the creatinine to be high. Does walking 1.2 miles under hot morning sun (about 75 degrees F) before the blood test, cause the test results to show high creatinine.
This sounds like I wrote it. Weight, height, etc. Best of luck to both of us xx
Same here. For last six months, I drank large quantities of crecifeoie vegs smoothie. I thought I did right thing for my body. However, my eGFR decreased and my creatinine level increased.
Thank you so much Dr Hashmi, I wish you were my doctor! Both of you have helped sooooo much! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
So glad our episodes have been helpful!!
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth I could not hear the last cup clearly, is it coffee is good for kidney?
Did he mention coffee is good for kidney, I could not hear what he said at the end something about caffeine.
@@jonathanluong4855 yes it is
Have you done any videos on Astragalus and it’s effects on preserving/improving kidney function?
We have not, but that is on our list of topics to discuss in an upcoming episode!
Hello, my CPK levels are 5080 U/l... doctor told me I need to stop gyming until further exams being done.
I do gym, but only 2 days a weeks. And i take some whey protein.
So if your not over weight but your numbers still doesn't come down
Coffee is good for inslune resistance ??
Wow drinking coffee is that good for Kidney's
Thanks. Not sure about coffee though. My taste went when i had kidney issues

I took creatine test after 3 weeks of pantoprazole, so i was referred to a nephro and he said these anti acid meds to increase creatinine levels.
Is garluc indian bread ok?
Not often maybe 2x a month
Dr Hashmi your videos have been super helpful to me. Recent diagnosis..stage 2 CKD creatinine was JUST slightly elevated.GFR 61. One thing that was new in my life, on my last blood test I was , /am walking about 2 miles every day about 40 minutes,..but at least a mile or so ,are up some VERY very steep hills takes a bit of effort like climbing.. Could that sort of exercise esp a day before a blood test raise creatinine a bit?, as to muscle breakdown in the blood from semi strenuous exercise?
This has been very good information.
Any recommended electrolytes?
Dr doctor can i take fiber supplements to lower my creatinine?
Very informative.. Tq👍👍from Malaysia
Glad it was helpful!
Do u have video about how to lower ureum Sir? 🙏
If you have CKD can i still have rice 3x a day
thanks
Why I eat a small protein from fish and egg and a lot of vegetable but my creatinine still crawl up
Thank you Dr H what about effects of antibiotics in kidneys 🙏🏻
I cut back on salt for 3 months, and my blood pressure was still sky high. Still have high creatinine. I'm scared because I saw what my grandmother went through health-wise on dialysis.
Stop worrying. Stop smoking n drinking. Stop sugar and excess sodium. Check ur BP and glucose levels. Eat healthy. Exercise regularly .Go to a nephro. Have an ultrasound and a complete kindney blood test (at least 9 markers ) and check ur urine and GFR. If everything is ok, stay on course and stop stressing ur self. Stress makes things worse. Stay Blessed.
Goodday , have you already check your Gfr?? And how are you now doing? Yess i get you, that you are worrying. Good that you cut back on salt,
Do allergy meds effect kidney function?
Thank you for this video ❤I was in denial of having diabetes but associated with more of a PCOS diagnosis but once I started my lifestyle change and healthier eating choices lots of water instead of sweet drinks I converted to no sugar products and started forcing water 😊now it’s just a normal part of the day 😂 I was going through weird changes and had to pin point and start taking control of my body weight also and I’m starting to feel better HgbA1c was lower ❤ but my creatinine was 0.84 I was tolled chronic kidney disease as soon as I was diagnosed with diabetes or high bp so iam stage 1 cKD I need to fu check my microalbumin to creatinine ratio still
So happy to hear you have made lifestyle changes and are already seeing great results! Yes, screening for protein in urine and blood work for kidney health should be done at least once/year in all people with diabetes or prediabetes! More often if blood sugar levels are not under control.
My sister creatinine 11.4 and grf 47 does she has to go to dialysis and she remove her one kidney 5 years ago.please give information
Thank you! Is it okay to take creatine supplements? (3g daily) There is conflicting info everywhere... thank you!!
We plan to do an episode on creatine supplements! It is on our last to record for a future episode so stay tuned :)
Since I've been eating a carnivore diet, my blood creatine has been very low
What about water? Why did skip water?
Can you help me? My egfr is 62.5 from 65, from 75. I am not diabetic, my bp is normal, I lost weight from 165 lbs i'm down to 148.5 lbs. My bmi is normal. How come my creatinine is still high? I drink coffee 2 - 3 a day too.
Many never say it but coffee is not healthy. I was told it kills the healthy bacteria in the gut. If this is true then we know thats not going to work over a long period of time.
Yep, my husband is on an antibiotic that's causing this. Figures. He needs the red meat to get his hemoglobin back up. Drinks no alcohol, no coffee, heats a healthy diet with lots of vegetables. Its the antibiotic.
I have a drink or 2 every 2 or 3 months
Why take alcohol at all when all sources indicate it damages the kidney.
What kind of fiber are you talking about ? And does meds like Trulicity and Farxiga have any effects on the kidneys ?
We have a video on SGLT2 inhibitors that you can check out! We are talking about both soluble and insoluble fiber.
Thank you for the video. I would be very interested in two important questions.
1. high cholesterol is not uncommon with kidney disease. What are the options (besides statins) to lower cholesterol?
2. sports with kidney disease: to what extent can/should one do sports and is strength training allowed? Or better no strength training?
Greetings from Germany!
Hello all the way to Germany :) We have an episode on exercise/strength training so make sure to check that out! We will make sure to address cholesterol and statins in an upcoming episode!
Niacin/Omega 3’s for cholesterol & triglycerides
For cholestrol take mixture of (ginger,garlic, raw apple cider vinegar and lemon)...you can google this remedy or you tube it.
This actually work
What are the antibiotics that's are kidney friendly; gram negative gram positive?
What antacids or things used for GERD are the safest? Is it OK to be on these for years? Decades? I see all these lawsuits for these causing kidney disease.
Great questions/topics! Added to our list for upcoming episodes!
my doctor prescribed me Farxiga 3 weeks ago and I did a blood test today, it shows an elevation of creatinine. My doctor said it's expected. What do you guys think ? How long does creatinine increase when taking farxiga for the first time ?
We have added this new medication as a topic to discuss in an upcoming episode!
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth yes please, my doctor said it usually increase creatinine first few weeks only. I don't know if it goes up later. Does it means, it damages the kidney the first few weeks ?
No this common..but the creatinine will come down after few weeks and protinuria will reduce.
I started FARXIGA with a gfr of 70 but then gfr after FARXIGA is 45-53. It has that effect on gfr and higher creatinine. Alcohol raises creatinine.
@@Kangoo9how much creatine now
I don’t eat red meat but I still getting creatinine high?
Im stage 2 CKD and i dnt drink alcohol anymore 15years already , can i drink occasionlly? 1 shot or two of whisky or wine?
Please for how long have you been in stage 2?
When you have eGFR of 15 and creatinine of 3.9, can you do anything? Will cordyceps help? I changed diet to just little bit of meat every day and my eGFR became worse. Maybe I should go back to meat diet.
There are definitely still things you can do! We would highly recommend working 1:1 with a renal dietitian because there is ALOT that can be done with diet to slow progression of CKD and improve outcomes. It is highly individualized though. Reducing meat is great. But it depends on what you ate in place of that. How much total protein, fiber, vegetables, sodium, etc. You can search for renal dietitians at this website: sites.google.com/view/ckdrd/home
can i still eat peanut butter (skippy peanut butter chunky) if i have high creatinine? pls answer... Thank you!
Natural peanut butter (where the only ingredients are peanuts) can definitely be part of a kidney friendly diet. We would not recommend peanut butter with added sugar, salt or oils (which Skippy has).
Any data on cordyceps and lowering creatinine? I have also read that green tea can be good for Creatinine? Any data?
We have cordyceps and mushrooms on schedule for a future episode. I have just added green tea. Thanks for the topic suggestions! :)
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth how much more accurate are 24 hour urine samples than regular blood drawn samples to estimate gfr?
I need a kidney dietician who can help me with a diet, recipes etc.
is this something you can help me with?
There is a database of renal dietitians at www.kidney.org/ckdrd. Check that out! :)
Why is mine lower and bun but still have protien in urine
I have protein in my urine as well going on for at least a decade and I get checked once per year and through my diet I have been able to maintain stage three. I owe much of my diet to these two wonderful people. Be sure your kidneys aren't creating small undetectable stones as these can cause kidneys to leak protein. Add lemon juice to your drinks and avoid spinach and anything else that contains high oxalates. Maintain normal blood pressure as best you can. Avoid anything that will spike glucose or fructose. Limit meat and protein overall and saturated fat. I learned it from these guys. There are new drugs which can also help.
Valuable and comprehensive Infos as usual.But what about fish ? Is the impact of 100 grams sardines the same as 100 grams red meat even grass fed?
@@abdelilahbenahmed4350 and 100g chicken daily for bodybuilding
I may be doing something wrong. My creatinine went from 1.5 to 1.0 and my GFR went from 92 to 101 in three months by eating only read meat and eggs. Are these results a smoke screen for something I'm not aware of?
Did you lose weight or workout more?
Red meat is bad for kidney
@@naughtyrocks2425 They say this, but after several years it has not been the case. In fact, my kidney function improved...and I realize western medicine says that cant happen also.
@@jhughes7165 I lost weight to about 12% body fat. My entire life "cleared up" and I started being very consistent with exercise and gained a little muscle too..
@@2Marinesandaboxofcrayons you lose weight bec you are not eating carbs and sugar....and that is the secret ..but red meat is hard on kidney.
Thank you. My creatinine level is high 1.40 to 1.5 and my GFR between 60 to 65 and I’m going to gym. Is it safe to take pre workout supplements. My CPK level is high as well. Pls need your kind advice.
We will do an episode on pre workout supplements in general! But you should definitely run any supplement by your physician/dietitian prior to taking as many are not recommended for CKD.
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth thank you.
My creatinine level is 3.8
Which food do you suggest not to eat??
Hello! Check out our videos under the "diet" section. We also would recommend working 1:1 with a renal dietitian so they can review your labs, intake, and estimate nutrient needs/provide individualized recommendations :) www.kidney.org/ckdrd is a database of renal dietitians.
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth my creatinine is 1.27 please is this a kidney decease?
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth please reply me
@@matovushalom1358it’s not ! Calm down and do some research
Dr…does smoking affect kidney…??
Definitely! We have talked about it here and there in a few episodes, but can definitely do one solely on the impact of smoking of kidney disease!
@@PlantBasedKidneyHealth thank you Dr..🙏🙏🙏
My level is 1.10
🙏🙏🙏❤️🕊️🕊️
If you drink alcohol every day, you are a full-blown alcoholic and need help. If you drink at holidays or maybe 2 times a month, then you are not an alcoholic.
The only way to reduce creatinine is by repairing the glomeruli in the kidney. Diet does not repair the glomeruli but it only helps reduce protein. Of course, if we drink only water then there will be zero creatinine level and this never means our kidneys have recovered.
how can one repair the glomeruli?
Stem cells might renew the tissue but once it's damage it turns to scar tissue and that is even harder to heal more research should be done to heal nephrons but diet must strictly change stop what causes damage to begin with and possibly over time it could heal
Simplest way to good health is to eat meat, fruits and vegetables and exercise. If anyone tells you to not eat meat then go in the other direction fast.
