Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment: New Advances to Slow CKD Stage 3 and Avoid Premature Death

[@claireluvstotravel4752]

Love Dr. Ro and James ❤

[@Kikiconsilience]

Please can you do a video about life after kidney transplant and what’s best to eat, what exercise and what to be mindful of? Love this channel

[@HaggisVitae]

Wow, this made me feel sooooooo much better!!

[@Mark1958-wwjd]

Seems like too many people here are asking for a diagnosis instead of general tips. I say ask you doctor for the specifics that pertain to you, but watch all your blood test scores and monitor what works.. eating habits, exercise etc. The Kidney foundation has a website with food dos and don'ts to help you avoid potassium and phosphorus. Watch sodium, sugar, pop and prossessed foods. All very important.

[@marcirobins5144]

Consult YOUR physician.

[@swilson20122]

Hard to not eat prossed foods. Everything in america is that way. Dr looked me and said well yah. like lord i cant with Drs no more.

My DR never checks my urine. Says I am 3b

[@williamhenry3337]

My best friend age 76 has stage 3a kidney disease so I watch podcasts on kidney disease. I'm happy to hear the protein you eat has no impact on the protein in your urine. For two years I lived on 8,000 calories and 300 grams of protein a day at 135 lbs. Last time I was at a doctor's office was in 1969 so I feel better now.

[@Mark1958-wwjd]

I think it depends on each individual patient. Your friend should consult his doctor and know his blood test scores. But age-wise he is in the lower risk group for those with EFR above 45.

Randomised controlled trials have shown that supplementation with CoQ10 could improve kidney function in CKD patients.

[@HarryLalalala]

What's that?

[@ExileRadio]

@@HarryLalalala Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a substance that helps convert food into energy. CoQ10 is found in almost every cell in the body, and it is a powerful antioxidant. You’ll need to be taking at least 100mg per day of Ubiquinol (which is the active form) to see any benefits on the kidneys or blood pressure.

Age 40 and went into kidney failure due to server pancreatitis due to alcohol. My kidney fucntion was 80 gfr snd zero protein in urine on blood work a year before my pancreatitis. I recieved dialasis in hospital stay but was able to come out of it. My kidney function has gone to 20 gfr and now iam leaking major protein. So bascially I haven't re covered from my acute failure. I read rhe docs book, but i hope he would give more advise to us youngsr people.

Hi James and thank you ❤️ I am stage 3, no protein in my urine, bun 25, cr 1.28, GFR 46, 67 yrs old. I am just starting on low protein diet, my question is do you eat the plant based frozen foods like chicken and hamburger or do you eat tofu you cook yourself?

Hi I have your book, but My situation is unique in that I have hardening of the arteries . I had a stint in my right kidney for several years, but due to a brain bleed, I was taken off my blood thinner for awhile. Meanwhile, 2 Weeks after getting off the blood thinner, I got a blood clot that took out my kidney with the stint. I am left with the left kidney which performs at about 35%. My vascular surgeon contemplated putting a stint in the left kidney, but finally decided to just leave it alone. He said the blood flow seemed ok for now. However,😊my kidney doctor asked the surgeon to reconsider the stint. Which brings me to an important question. Kidney Dr requested CT scan of my kidneys with contrast? I was told, when I was first Diagnosed with stage 3 kidney failure, to never let any Dr use contrast during testing? So,?what do you advise? Please asap answer!!!!! Thank You Janice Martin-Peers

[@cybersal7]

Research the many good doctors here with videos on D3 plus k2 (the 7MK version) which keeps calcium out of your arteries and in your bloodstream. Dr Berg for starters. A DC/ research scientist who has retired his practice to devote to research. He has 12 million subscribers.

[@lindadurand247]

If your gfr is above 30 then it's safe to use the contrast dye, I go through this periodically

[@pauletteschiowitz8989]

James, what do you eat for your meals because you’re not losing weight and I’m starving?

[@DADVICETV]

I use a LOT of olive oil and avocado oil - it is in nearly everything I make and is packed with calories . I also eat a lot of carbs (I will bake a large potato as a side with most meals, top it with steamed veggies, olive oil, real cheese). I love nuts that have some olive oil and spices on them, another high calorie snack. My caloric intake is far too high, even though I’m eating based on my labs. I have to work on lowering my calories and increasing exercise. For those looking to gain weight, healthy oils are easy to add extra calories quickly.

[@iftkharkhan7980]

Do you eat meat? If yes then how much daily?

[@Wiscograndma]

I gave up soda coffee process foods I don’t eat processed meats anymore. I have no quality of life anymore. It’s really hard to watch for PHOS in foods you don’t even know what’s in there and that’s really really bad for you. I guess I’m gonna have to start checking labels.

[@sinegasubramanian7454]

What are the important test to be taken for checking the condition of ckd issues

[@DADVICETV]

Your doctor can run the blood work to check your kidney function (eGFR) and key levels, along with a urine analysis to check for protein in your urine. Together you'll have information to help adjust your diet and treatment strategy.

Hi James, Hi Doctor, I am on stage 3 and have taken ACE for half year. But lately I felt dizzy and fainted from low blood pressure. Should I stop the ACE ?

[@DADVICETV]

This is a question for your doctor. I recommend checking your blood pressure at home and keeping a log of the results to share with your doctor. Your doctor may reduce the frequency, dose, or type of medication you are on.

[@Gail-ux2ly]

Hello James, does creatinine elevate with phos and calcium medicines? My mom's creatine was elevated from 1.92 to 2.21 then 2.21 to 3.26 in just 4 months. is this happening because of medicines?? she does not have any symptoms not even swelling. please answer please

[@DADVICETV]

Some medications can cause elevated creatinine, but the list is fairly small of those that cause that. Creatinine is natural and comes from muscle - she may be loosing muscle mass which could be the cause, or it could be that her kidney function is declining. Only her doctor can tell the real cause, allowing you to help her take measures to address it.

[@kathycorcoran1589]

Tell her to ask her Dr to refer her to a specialist.

Hello Dadvise TV, is it possible to have CKD without protein in the urine. And I want you to send me your contact details. Thank you.

Yes that is possible - and it is preferable. Urine protein is a strong indicator that your kidney function will decline, so no having any puts the odds in your favor of not needing dialysis in the future.
