If you’re like most of my patients, you probably don’t spend a lot of time thinking about your kidneys. think about their kidneys
But you should.
Kidney disease affects more than 26 million American adults… many of them seniors.
And treatments for this illness – like dialysis – are downright BRUTAL.
Fortunately, there’s a better way to fight kidney disease…
All you have to do is load up on some of your favorite foods.
Eating a healthy, low-carb diet – of fruits, vegetables, and fish – is good for your heart… your brain… and even your blood sugar.
Now we know getting more of these wonder foods can help you stay kidney disease-free, too.
In a recent study, researchers analyzed the diets and kidney disease outcomes of more than 630,000 people for ten years.
The scientists found that folks who consumed less processed meats and sugary drinks but ate more produce and lean proteins dramatically dropped the risk of kidney disease by 30 percent.
And the reason is simple.
Kidney disease is a modern ailment and is almost exclusively caused by excess carbohydrate consumption.
Carbohydrates and other sugars increase inflammation and oxidative damage throughout the body. Kidneys are very sensitive to this sugar-made inflammation.
Kidney disease is an issue for anyone who eats too many carbs: plain and simple.
When blood sugar rises, it also damages blood vessels throughout the body (especially small blood vessels found in the eye and kidneys).
If you want to avoid the pain and discomfort of kidney disease, eat a low carb diet with plenty of vegetables.
Here’s a book to get you started.
