Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease: How To Improve Kidney Function And Avoid Dialysis
$13.49$14.99 (-10%)
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a leading public health problem worldwide. It has been estimated to affect about 13.4% of the population. In the United States, about 40 million people suffer from CKD. But there are not many effective treatments for this disease. Yet, there are healthy remedies for kidney disease that are unknown to the people with CKD. A diet low in protein and phosphorus is usually one that is plant-based. This is a good kidney disease diet but is not commonly promoted. Rather, in the US and many western countries, people grow up being taught that they must eat lots of meat to be healthy. But meat and meat products can be detrimental to kidney health (as well as heart health). We emphasize this fact in this book with scientific studies to back the claim. Drinking enough water is essential to kidney health and wellness but it is not always emphasized. This award-winning book shows readers not just that drinking water is good for your kidneys, but how. It also shows how certain common vitamins, charcoal, ginger, teas and herbs can help improve kidney function and halt and even reverse CKD and help avoid dialysis. We provide relevant published studies for proof and further reading.

Excellent guide to healthy kidneys!
Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease by Yaw A Boateng is a comprehensive guide to improving kidney function and getting rid of its ailment. In this book, the author with his years of extensive research and expertise has structured various steps to be taken by people with CDK and healthy people to retain their kidney health and life. The author highlights the importance of following a diet of low protein and phosphorus and instructing to avoid meat and meat products which is one of the main causes of CDK. Drinking water and certain vitamins, teas, and herbs also boost the functionality of the kidney. Overall, a well-written guide that should be followed rigorously to witness optimum results.I have many loved ones suffering from CDK and to watch them suffer is terrifying. As in the field of science myself, I find this guide to be complete and detailed in various critical information. It is quite important for healthy people too to understand CDK so that they can take measures themselves at this moment in time so their future self will be thankful. The author has provided information relevant to published studies.The author has covered a number of issues such as the problem of CDK, and ways to reverse it with just diet and other various helpful condiments such as activated charcoal, ginger root, and turmeric. Also included is the role antioxidants play, the importance of vegetables and herbs and omega -3 fatty acids benefits. The author has concluded by debunking various myths about natural treatments in CDK. The author is straightforward, and I understood everything clearly in his framework. This is a must-have and a great recommendation to loved ones whether they suffer from CDK or without as a great source of knowledge. I give it 5 stars with a high recommendation.

Hope and Helpful Suggestions and Information on Supplements and Treatments!
If 40 million people are suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease then more awareness of this disease is needed. By reading books like this one you can find helpful suggestions and information on understanding supplements and treatments.Dr. Boateng is a practicing nephrologist who has written this amazing book to help people like you and I who are in a stage of kidney disease we want to improve. Recently I went from Stage 3 to Stage 2 by doing things suggested in books I’ve read that were very helpful.This book helped me understand the ingredients in the Snap Kidney Health Support Supplement which at one point got my GFR back up to 68! Which was amazing. I am taking it again. You will find information on corn silk, milk thistle, dandelion root and a whole lot more!Some of the questions this book answers include:Which type of water should I drink?Should I take baking soda as my stage of CKD?What foods should I increase in my diet?What foods should I eat to have an alkaline diet?This is one of the best books I’ve read in the years I’ve been figuring things out. I should be gone from this earth by now because years ago my GFR was 42 and decreasing rapidly. Now I’m at a GFR of 61 and doing great. I’m so grateful to all the authors who have helped me survive what seems like an incurable illness.Other books I highly recommend along with this one include:Save Your Kidneys by Dr. Edgar LermaStaying Healthy with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease by the Medical Education InstituteStopping Kidney Disease Basics by Lee Hull (Also look for his food guide/cookbook that has a great recipe for pumpkin chili. I use vegetable base and water in place of the vegetable stock.)The Complete Guide to Supplements for Kidney Health by Robert Galarowicz (Information on acacia fiber that really has helped me greatly.)So with these books you will find your way! I’m so happy I discovered them and have learned a lot!To your health and continued longevity,~The Rebecca ReviewP.S. Please consult with your doctor about taking any supplements like baking soda. I think I need more information on the sodium content and I’ve read differing opinions because of that. This review is not medical advice, nor am I a doctor!

Haven’t read it cover to cover yet
But I am impressed with its clarity and detail. Easy to understand and so helpful. I am early into CKD due to 20 years as a type II diabetic and years on blood pressure control. Previous to reading this book I had no knowledge of their connection to maintaining my kidney health.I would recommend this book to everyone who becomes diabetic and needs to lower their blood pressure to assist them in keeping their kidneys functioning throughout their life.Knowledge is power as long as you follow through and make the necessary changes in you life habits and diet. I’ll be reading it to the last page and integrating the life style and diet changes as needed to avoid and perhaps eliminate what appears to be early CKD. Just recently I had to have my lisinopril dosage increased after I experienced a sustained significant rise in my blood pressure for one.

This book was recommended to me for my kidney disease journey.It was truly insightful. Although there hadnât been much change with my kidney level, it is stable and I feel better. This is due to some smalls changes recommended in the book. Well worth the buy, especially to educate yourself on alternative methods.

My father is nearing the end. I cannot emphasise enough how drastically you must change your diet and way of life if you have any form of kidney illness. I must maintain my health in order to care for him and for myself. This book by Dr. HawReally helped us. Read them and follow them. Hell is dialysis. As long as you can, avoid it. Drs stitched him up and left him home for my care without providing us with the knowledge we required to help him. The most useful information I have so far discovered is in this book. We appreciate the author sharing his knowledge with us.
