The Relationship Between Nutrition and eGFR Improvements
What is the relationship between nutrition and eGFR improvement?
If chronic kidney disease is considered irreversible, how is it possible for some people to see their eGFR improve after making nutrition and lifestyle changes?
In this episode, you'll learn how creating a healthier environment for your remaining kidney function can help your kidneys work more efficiently and, in some cases, lead to improvements in eGFR.
In this episode, we'll discuss:
- What eGFR really measures
- Why nutrition can't "bring dead kidney cells back to life"
- How nutrition supports the healthy nephrons you still have
- Why some people experience improvements in eGFR while others maintain stable kidney function
- The real goal of nutrition in chronic kidney disease
