If 40 million people are suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease then more awareness of this disease is needed. By reading books like this one you can find helpful suggestions and information on understanding supplements and treatments.Dr. Boateng is a practicing nephrologist who has written this amazing book to help people like you and I who are in a stage of kidney disease we want to improve. Recently I went from Stage 3 to Stage 2 by doing things suggested in books I've read that were very helpful.This book helped me understand the ingredients in the Snap Kidney Health Support Supplement which at one point got my GFR back up to 68! Which was amazing. I am taking it again. You will find information on corn silk, milk thistle, dandelion root and a whole lot more!Some of the questions this book answers include:Which type of water should I drink?Should I take baking soda as my stage of CKD?What foods should I increase in my diet?What foods should I eat to have an alkaline diet?This is one of the best books I've read in the years I've been figuring things out. I should be gone from this earth by now because years ago my GFR was 42 and decreasing rapidly. Now I'm at a GFR of 61 and doing great. I'm so grateful to all the authors who have helped me survive what seems like an incurable illness.Other books I highly recommend along with this one include:Save Your Kidneys by Dr. Edgar LermaStaying Healthy with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease by the Medical Education InstituteStopping Kidney Disease Basics by Lee Hull (Also look for his food guide/cookbook that has a great recipe for pumpkin chili. I use vegetable base and water in place of the vegetable stock.)The Complete Guide to Supplements for Kidney Health by Robert Galarowicz (Information on acacia fiber that really has helped me greatly.)So with these books you will find your way! I'm so happy I discovered them and have learned a lot!To your health and continued longevity,~The Rebecca ReviewP.S. Please consult with your doctor about taking any supplements like baking soda. I think I need more information on the sodium content and I've read differing opinions because of that. This review is not medical advice, nor am I a doctor!

Very informative and full of medical info to communicate with a doctor on this issue of CKD.,

When my Dad was diagnosed with end stage kidney failure we wanted to seek information that his doctors weren’t offering. This book turned out to be an excellent source of information! We were able to read it and use our learnings to have more informed conversations with his care team team.

In 2021 the CDC reported that 1 in every 7 adults have Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) , 2 out of 5 adults with severe CKD do not know they have it until it's too late. Dr. Yaw A. Boateng’s Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease: How To Improve Kidney Function And Avoid Dialysis, is a great resource to lower those numbers before it's too late.The book is divided into 12 well-put chapters from explaining what CKD is to the herbal medicine that can possibly replace your pharmaceutical medication. Dr. Boateng also presented the risk factors of CKD like ancestry, obesity, smoking, family history, age and other factors. The importance of a functioning kidney was well described in this book. The good doctor has an unbiased approach to the disease, while also presenting the benefits of natural medicine, he also presents the benefits of pharmaceutical medication.I do have family members who are suffering from this disease and knowing that we can always turn to a natural way of ameliorating kidney function is great news. I learned that certain vitamin supplements can improve kidney functions, and herbs, vegetables and spices can not only help in digestion but also improve renal and kidney functions. I have heard a lot about the benefits of activated charcoal and knowing how it can clean the kidney is amazing. 65 % of the general population in the US, is a visual learner so it would really help if there are graphs and visual representation of the data added to the book. The book is well-researched and packed with so much data.Dr. Yaw A. Boateng’s Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease: How To Improve Kidney Function And Avoid Dialysis, has educated me not only in terms of prolonging and improving the quality of life of people suffering from CKD but the alternatives to possibly reversing the disease.

Great book with evidence based action steps. This book is a great information for everyone, not just someone with CKD.

This is an interesting, informative book about trying to stop Kidney Disease written by a Nephrologist. Am curious if the information works or not. Since I'm in kidney Failure right now, I may try what he recommends after I find out if they're safe to use. Highly recommend.
