@@evelynaustria5227I’m sorry this is happening to you. If your condition is an auto immune disease you don’t need to have done anything specific or at least anything you would know about. Auto immune diseases usually have a genetic component that is triggered by something in your environment. It doesn’t necessarily even have to be a long term exposure/situation.

Strain in very fine strainer. That’s it! It is concentrated at this point. Add enough to your teas or water as needed. Add honey or sweetener if you desire. Store in glass container in fridge.

OK. I'm a lifelong oxalate kidney stone😅 -maker and vegetarian for the past 20 years with a past passion for sugary carbs. Latest 24-hr x 2 urine test summary concludes with longstanding bilateral kidney stones despite reasonable fluid intake and a basically good diet. Of fruit and veg After years of living with kidney and gastric disorders I'm absolutely convinced that IBS and certain bowel disorders; leaky gut for example play a significant role in the making of kidney calcifications Although, blood tests may show no abnormality in Creatinine and protein levels in the kidneys, in much older years weight gain, kidney stones and hypertension can become a bigger problem when the diet is not carefully adjusted. In my early seventies my diet is good, but without sugary carbs, gluten and salt. These three cancer-causing foods are absolute poison in the gut, including weight gain and even inflammation of the joints. I might then suggest thst Kidney stone sufferers are well advised to substantially cut sugar, salt and gluten out of the daily diet altogether. Thank you.

I have a thousand questions but I will only ask one..I have been on a plant based diet for years now..apart from kidney problems I also suffer from ibs...that's why I became vegan after being a vegetarian..I was watching another video and it was talking about oxalates, which come from vegetables and its very dangerous for who is following a plant based diet and that have kidney problems..I am so worried now!! I'm terrified about what I should eat..my question is... Is it dangerous to follow a plant based diet if we can damage even more our kidneys from the oxalates in vegetables? I'm so confused and scared..it would be lovely to have a video on this subject Thank you so much.

[@PlantBasedKidneyHealth]

Hello! Thanks for tuning into our channel! We do have another short video on oxalates, but will have more soon! A healthy kidney diet should always be individualized. Some people may need lower oxalates, and some may not. For people who do need to limit oxalates, usually avoiding/limiting the very highest oxalate foods is enough (spinach, rhubarb, raspberries, beets, almonds). There are still TONS of whole, plant based foods that aren't extremely high in oxalates.

Using only veggies as meat substitute is problematic for CKD patients. There's too much potassium & carbs and there's. Veggie protein is not as efficiently used as animal protein and without enough protein the body will consume it's own muscle tissue and there's more to meat than just protein. Meat has a bunch of nutrients you can't get anywhere else. You'll need to take supplements.

[@PlantBasedKidneyHealth]

She should definitely work closely with a renal dietitian to make sure the plant based diet is individualized for her. Low sodium for CKD is up to 1500-2000 mg/day. Her fluid intake may be playing a role as well so have them individually assess that. We will add low sodium diet and hyponatremia to our list of topics to address in an upcoming episode as well!

Michele has some info on her other channel on a plant focused keto diet and recommendations for renal dietitians that specialize in this for people with PKD! You can check out this link kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqe1loekr7-gbKs and Michele's website: plantbasedkidneys.com/resources/#dietitian
