Thank you for posting. That link is amazing and really appreciate it. Don't think I have kidney disease....yet, but since taking NSAIDs for the last month or so, a statin forever, etc., it never hurts to be informed!
I didn't see anything about medications. I guess that was all about diet.
Take good care and keep that sense of humor and relaxed outlook on life. There is nothing that can help more. Hugs to you.

I think it is important to focus on the word "individualized."

My nephrologist wants me to increase both salt and protein, with the idea that low blood pressure and muscle mass loss might be driving my lower eGFR.

I was also surprised that the site only mentions the creatinine-based eGFR. The Cystatin- based eGFR is much steadier and less influenced by dehydration or muscle loss.
