Why would someone want to work with me? What makes me different? I believe that each client is a person not what ails them at the time they are seeking help. Clients I treat as individuals and there is not one protocol or approach for each person. I usually see clients who have already tried mainstream medical care and are just not finding the relief they sought. They know there is more work to do however, they are possibly not being heard by their current healthcare providers or not at their optimal state of health that they know they can feel or once felt.

Kidney Disease/Renal Nutritionists and Dietitians
What are the symptoms of kidney disease?
The kidneys play a vital role in filtering blood and removing waste products from the body. Symptoms of kidney disease thus typically reflect the kidneys' reduced ability to perform these functions effectively; such symptoms include nausea, vomiting, changes in urination patterns, fatigue, hypertension (high blood pressure), and swelling or fluid retention in the body. Because kidney disease tends to be chronic, symptoms often develop gradually over time. Fortunately, diet modifications and lifestyle changes can be particularly important in managing kidney disease and preserving kidney function. Early intervention and lifestyle modifications are critical to prevent disease progression to end-stage kidney disease, which may require very invasive treatments like dialysis or a kidney transplant.
What foods should I avoid if I have kidney disease?
Managing diet is crucial for individuals with kidney disease to maintain kidney health. Specifically, it is important for individuals with kidney disease to avoid foods high in sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, as impaired kidneys may struggle to regulate these nutrients effectively, leading to complications such as hypertension and fluid retention. Choosing to prepare meals at home and avoiding processed foods—such as chips, canned goods, and soups—can significantly reduce sodium intake. Additionally, limiting consumption of high-potassium foods like bananas, oranges, beans, and dairy products, as well as phosphorus-rich foods such as whole grains, nuts, and certain dairy items, is important. Working with a dietitian specializing in renal nutrition can be a great option for those with kidney disease, as dietitians can provide tailored dietary strategies to support kidney function and offer individualized guidance on specific foods someone should avoid depending on the stage of their disease.
Can kidney disease be prevented with nutrition?
Adopting a healthy and balanced diet can play a critical role in reducing the risk of developing kidney disease. A diet that promotes healthy cholesterol levels and helps control blood pressure is particularly important, as these health factors can contribute to kidney disease risk. Additional strategies to support kidney health include limiting sodium intake to a maximum of 2,300 mg per day and maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. Managing diabetes and reducing consumption of high-sugar foods are essential, given that diabetes is a major contributor to kidney disease development. These dietary practices, alongside regular medical check-ups and lifestyle adjustments, can help mitigate one's risk of developing kidney disease.
What diet is best for people with kidney disease?
Instead of focusing on a single type of food, it is recommended that individuals with kidney disease follow dietary guidelines tailored to support kidney health. This often involves managing the intake of certain nutrients, such as sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, and maintaining a balanced diet rich in fiber, healthy fats, and lean protein. Nutrition experts also often recommend the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet for individuals with kidney disease. Known for its ability to lower blood pressure and improve heart health, the DASH diet emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy while reducing saturated fats. For those undergoing dialysis due to end-stage kidney disease, there may be additional dietary needs. Monitoring fluid intake and protein consumption closely is particularly crucial, as dialysis treatments can affect fluid and protein levels in the body.
