Hi Ginger,
I spoke before about my daughter and her MGUS diagnosis. Her numbers fluctuate each week. I don't want to talk about that this time. My question is about healthy eating. Does anyone have a diet that has been helping to improve their kidneys function. I believe in foods and good healthy natural solutions are the best answers to our heath! Any replies are welcomed. What has worked for you. Thank you and God bless you all.

@psue4 Oh, diet and kidney function! A topic those of us who deal with chronic kidney disease hold dear to our hearts [and kidneys!]. If you wander over to the kidney and bladder support group page, you will find several discussions that go in to different diet ideas and how members have found what is working for them. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/kidney-conditions/
As both a multiple myeloma patient, and end stage renal disease patient [I am on dialysis], not related to the myeloma, what I eat plays an important and challenging part of my life. Low sodium, quality protein, low phosphorus/calcium foods are critical. Teaming up with a renal dietician can be useful. Fresh foods over processed whenever possible. Fluid restrictions if indicated; I aim for 2 liters of fluids per day, a challenge when I am dyhydrated. Each kidney patient is different, based on co-morbidities, but we are the same, if you can understand that?
