Working as a kidney doctor, I found that my patients were often unaware of just how important diet and lifestyle were and how often they felt unsupported by generic advice to “eat healthy”. The home cook in me hated hearing this, so I set out to find a better way.
I began to combine my medical training and love of food, making videos of simple recipes that were based on science and packed with flavor. Instead of just saying “eat healthy” to my patients, I could give them the resources they needed to make a real difference in their health.

Thanks for being the first person to get right to the point without a preceding seminar.
Thank you Doc for another great video.
Another interesting video. If you haven’t already done a video on it, it would be interesting to hear about fresh fish, particularly oily fish and its benefits and how that could fit with a kidney friendly diet. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much @richardayres2949 and that is a great idea. I will make a note of that for a future video.
@@thecookingdoc thanks, I look forward to it. In the U.K. they recommend oily fish twice a week for a healthy person (no CKD) but I suspect many people dont manage that so it will be interesting to hear your take on it in the kidney context.
Helpful ,thank you. My husband has acute renal failure most likely from a strep throat infection in mid-March. His BP has been too high for.a biopsy. His BUN and Creatinine have been improving enough that they let him start Torsemide - he's very swollen from fluid retention. They sent him home yesterday (had been in hospital since Sunday) on 2 BP meds and his BP has been better at home. Doing a crash course on your channel since they gave NO instruction on diet. Kidney doc still wants biopsy but if his labs keep improving and BP keeps going down, we don't want to put him through a biopsy.
Great video!
I really appreciate hearing that. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
Dr. Blake, Thanks for what you do it is definitely appreciated. Dr. David Unwin is stating that low carb and higher fats and protein can help your kidney function. He has some small studies in the UK. Any info you can share would be appreciated, I am not sure I think this is the correct thing to do. Again, thank you for what you do sir!!
Can I eat egg yolks with CKD & not just egg whites?
I think one of your vids said that a high protein/keto diet would not affect your GFR much. That was not my experience. I was keto and lifting weights and my GFR kept dropping, about 20 points total. I was doing this because my A1C was 6.1. I stopped keto, kept lifting weights, and started eating a more normal diet, more carbs but watched over-all calories and lost a few pounds and GFR went up 15 points and A1C dropped to 5.6 (normal). This was just my experience, not a doctor but, I did sleep at a Holiday Inn last night!!! If you are in my boat, elevated A1C, Watch Dr. Roy Taylor videos. Dr. Nicola Guess and a YT channel called Nutrition Made Simple which is hosted by an MD/PhD. Good luck in good health!
@DetroitHomesinspector how much protein do you eat daily..
@@coleengregory9886 I don't count the grams, but I am guessing a normal amount. I eat a normal amount of everything, just less of it.
I have been eating a banana for breakfast to eliminate restless leg syndrome.
Does it work?
@@cherylmcnutt9905 I stopped the banana because it gave me constipation. Went back to wearing 100% wool leggings, keeping the house heat up, sleeping on my restless leg side.
What is considered low potassium? What is the milligrams that you should consume for low potassium?
I'm a dietitian, and the first thing I do, is get all concentrated sources of protein out of a kidney patient's diet. I've seen doubling or more of GFR, when dialysis patients go on a full-tilt Kempner rice diet, and most people can be taken out of kidney failure IF (big if) their kidney malfunction was caused by too much dietary protein in the first place.
Since when are we trying to reduce our potassium intake?
Last I heard most people are potassium deficient.
People with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease need to restrict potassium in their diets.
😊😊
Could be, but others have too much potassium.
Why. Is. He. Looking. At the. Ceiling!!
