Kidney disease diets and kidney cleanses

I am stage2 CKD

Hi everyone,
I really appreciate this discussion board, I feel less alone in my journey and the sharing helps me navigate my CKD. Thank you so much!
I m in stage 3A right now, GFR is 48. I m starting to really look at my diet and make some positive changes. I recently read a post that about a couple of people who followed a you tube Renal dietician, but can't find the reference right now. Does anybody know her name?

Cheers, Lori

I don't think there is a spot-on cookbook. I have used the web to find recipes. Many say your diet depends on which stage you're at. I've been told we can't have watermelon, or 1/2 cup per day and one source, not allowed. For the last 3 months I've been dieting as requested by my physician.
Not hard when we are extremely limited on what to eat. I'm down to 143 lbs. From 174.
I had my first appt. with a very hard to get into Neprologist doctor. First thing he did was to take me off 3 of the 6 high blood pressure prescriptions. I feel so wonderful. No heart racing, inability to sleep, etc.
Someone highly recommended going on you tube where a lady has good recipes for kidney patients. I haven't found her yet but will.
Sorry to be skipping to different subjects, but I will say kidneys are one of the diseases least progressing in medical fields compared to cancer, etc.
I admire people on these posts who are searching for answers. I am hoping RFK will help kidney patients with an accurate listing of what we can/cannot eat.
Blessings to you all.
