@PlantBasrdKidneyHealth ❤I really appreciate all your video’s. You have so much wisdom and I’m enjoying learning and educating myself. I have a spill of protein but dr said not to concerning. Can you tell me how to help myself.

[@elenalee785]

Thank you for the information given. Can I inquire whether we can eat eggs, salmon fish and chicken if one got auto immune?

Is Moringa good to take CKD stage 3 ?

Hi I have lupus nephritis, I’ve been living with it for 20 years, as time goes on it worsens. I have protein in the urine that goes up & down. My Dr doesn’t want to do a biopsy because I’m on warfarin. My kidney function is good, the only problem is protein in the urine 2+. Should I be concerned about not doing a biopsy?

Hello! Check out our live recordings (under the live Q & A playlist). Dr. Hashmi discusses when a biopsy is usually needed. But in general, biopsies are usually only done if it will change/impact the diagnosis and treatment of the CKD.

Best wishes for Mrs. H. Vitamin D. Is elevated calcifediol a renal toxin OR is it the toxic stress in the renal conversion of it to calcitriol OR is it the calcitriol itself resulting renal calification? The local calcitriol concentration is highest where it is made (especially) and immediately downstream and so that is where calification could be the most extreme unless evolution accounted for it. BTW, where in the kidneys is the conversion done? Thanks.

Hello! Make sure to check out our phosphorus episodes where we discuss vit D, iPTH, phos and mineral bone health! We will make sure to have an episode dedicated fully to this concept though too!

I recently got diagnosed with class IV lupus nephritis...what are the chances that it gets reversed to class III

What word did he say at 5:28? If a person has this in their urine, they need a biopsy of kidney. The word is distorted in the microphone.
