Exercise May Benefit Kidney Disease Patients - Mediterranean Diet May Decrease Risk of Kidney Disease

Exercise May Benefit Kidney Disease Patients




Staying active can be hard, especially when
chronic disease gets in the way. But two new
studies suggest that chronic kidney disease
patients should make time for exercise. I'm
Erin White with your latest health news.
The studies found that exercise programs may
improve physical performance and weight in
chronic kidney disease patients. The kidneys
are responsible for filtering extra fluids
and wastes from the blood. In chronic kidney
disease, damage to the organs develops and
slowly worsens over time. This limits the
kidneys' ability to function.
Speak with a doctor about safe and effective
exercise for you.

Mediterranean Diet May Decrease Risk of Kidney Disease




The Mediterranean diet has been tied to many
health benefits, such as improved heart health.
And now, new research suggests it may also
protect kidney health. I'm Miranda Savioli
with your latest health news.
A Mediterranean diet is one high in fruits,
vegetables, fish, legumes and healthy fats
like olive oil. A recent study found such
a diet lowered patients' risk of chronic kidney
disease. Participants who followed the diet
most closely were about 50 percent less likely
to develop kidney disease than those not on
the diet. They were also less likely to see
rapid decline in kidney function.
Talk to your doctor about whether this is
a viable diet plan for you
