JK if your kidney function is compromised (high creatinine and high BUN), I would sure rethink. my food routine. While I understand everyone lives to eat, when it comes down to making a choice of eating what you like and kidney failure that was quite an easy decision for me. That is especially true after living on dialysis for several years. So far, vegan and calorie restriction has worked out great for my kidneys and my overall health, too. So, too, has being off dialysis!
