Recovering from chronic kidney disease - Treating Kidney Failure Through Diet

Recovering from chronic kidney disease




Hello everybody, this is Mike.
I just wanted to give you a quick update
A lot of you have watched the video about
how I've got off kidney dialysis and are
asking about how am I doing today and my chronic
kidney disease.
tell you what, I thank you so much for the
interest.
Anyhow I'll give you a quick update
I've got a report back from the doc
My latest blood work showed that my kidney
function is even better than it was last time
I'm having a lot of improvements, my life
is great compared to 2011 when I was in a
very bad place, as I've found a chronic kidney disease
and I was on kidney dialysis
In 2012 I was on dialysis three days a week
and life was miserable, no quality of life,
I was depressed, I was discouraged
Then I've found this treatment online, tell
you what, fell free to browse as I've found
a lot of information
Anyhow, I've taken my life back using this
program, in two months my kidney function
started to return, in six months I was off
dialysis completely, I took my life back,
I feel better, I'm in a better place, my
family and friends are still amazed about
the change in my life
Anybody who suffer from chronic kidney disease
or on dialysis -- do yourself and do them
a favor and get this program as it will change
their life
Thanks for watching this

Treating Kidney Failure Through Diet




"Treating Kidney Failure Through Diet"
One of the most important functions of our kidneys is
to filter out excess phosphorus from our bloodstream,
and so when our kidney function declines, phosphorus can
build up in our bodies and cause something
called metastatic calcification, where your heart valves and muscles
and other parts of your body can
build up calcium deposits and eventually result in skin
necrosis, gangrene, amputations, all sorts of bad stuff.
So, if a person has diminished kidney function, their doctor
will likely put them on a low phosphate diet,
which is tough, because basically everything with protein
has phosphorus. So, both plant foods and
animal foods have phosphorus. But when omnivores have been compared to those eating vegan,
vegans had significantly less protein leaking out into their
urine, a sign of intact kidney function.
So while they concluded that, “These results can confirm
the usefulness of vegetarianism here and support...
the use of a vegan diet" for patients with kidney
failure, maybe it was just because the omnivores
were getting “a higher protein load,” and we know that
lower protein diets appear to delay the progression
of kidney failure. So did the plant-based diet help because
they were eating less protein or because the
body somehow is able to handle plant protein better than animal protein?
Now to figure that out, you’d have to split people into
two groups, half on a vegetarian diet, half not,
with the critical caveat to make sure both groups
eat the exact same amount of protein and
the exact same amount of phosphorus. And that’s what researchers did.
Published recently in the Journal of the American Society
of Nephrology, they took vegetarians and put
them on a meat diet, and then took meat-eaters and
put them on a vegetarian diet. Even though
phosphorus and protein intake were kept the same in
both diet groups, here’s the level of phosphorus
stuck in the bloodstream of those on the meat
diet, compared to those on the veg diet.
So there's just something about plant foods that enables
our bodies to better handle their phosphorus content.
Same amount of phosphorus, but plant phosphorus appears
easier to cleanse away from our body.
Positive results have been seen even with semi-vegetarian
diets, but the reason the new study
observed more dramatic differences after only 1 week, was perhaps because of the pure vegetarian
diets used in this study. Taken together, a vegetarian-based
diet may be beneficial for the control of
phosphorus balance in patients with chronic kidney disease.
