Thank you for all the information of living with kidney disease.
I noticed you advise to read food labels and to eat herbs/spices that don’t include salt – such as onion powder not onion salt. I have been advised lately by an Australian herb company that food laws do not require companies to list if they have used salt in the drying/processing of herbs/spices which means the food label is not useful to those who have kidney disease .
I have type 1 Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis and are interested if you have any recipes which may help.
Thanks

Hi, my name is Ciara Dillon and I was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome at a young age. I loose a lot of protein and would severly get sick. I suffered many years and would like to help boost awareness and medicine. I am currently trying to raise $5,000 to help donate and fund an awareness or medical center to help find ways to help. Please email me back if you are interested in me going forth in my project.

I watched the first session on Facebook of the Clinical Trial Recruitment Collaborative. Kevin Fowler did a wonderful job and the panel as well. Could stop stay and watch all of the day and wondered if there will be a condensed version or print of it later?
I sent previous comment wondering if the broadcast on Facebook of the Clinical Trial Recruitment will be published for view? could not view all on Facebook.

I am an 87 year old male, diagnosed with unqurable Chronic kidney by a specialist in 2012my GRF was 42.5 and was down to 34.5 6/22/15.Shortly after I began Qi Gong training (the ancient Chinese medicine art that teaches how to breath to the diaphragm) and circulate more oxygen throughout one body. This requires a minium of 15 minutes daily. In the first two years I worked-up to one hour daily. By 6/13/17my GRF had reversed and was up to 37.6 and as of 6/27/19 is up to 41.0. These statistics are of record in Fl. and Tn.hospitals.
