@gingerw hi appreciate your time in replying. With the 16 8 you say it can take a while for the body to adjus so perhaps I just need to go through the motions. I also thinking perhaps there is other medicines that needs to be looked at that maybe causing the egfr issue? More discussions with my kidney doc. I will wait and see

@game I would truly caution anyone doing this type of an eating plan while having kidney or other chronic disease conditions. That can be a lot of stress on our bodies.

Hydration and balance in chemical/food levels is critical. In my opinion [not a medical doctor here!] the stress and uncertainty of it all could lead to a sudden AKI [acute kidney injury] and crash our kidney function. Not a good thing. Please check with your primary care doctor and nephrologist before you go further, and get their opinion. Look at the reasoning behind wanting to do such a food plan and weigh it with risks/benefits.
