Very good book. Very informative and meticulously well researched.
by Phil Shulkind
This book is a goldmine of information. Like Lee, my doctors told me to carry on as I was when I was told I had stage 3 CKD. Like most people I wasn’t content with this, and the zero information I was given. I researched, But the more I read, the more confused I was. As I have type 2 diabetes I was especially confused, as I seemed I shouldn’t eat white or brown bread! So I gave up and decided to get on with my life, eating what I wanted with care checking the ingredients.
Reading Lee’s book week by week online has given me a sense of direction, and the reassuring knowledge that I was not alone in feeling that doctors don’t have a clue – don’t need to do anything until you’re stage 4? I have a few ideas for the way forward now, so I am excited that the book is now available in a traditional format that I can pull these threads together and start on a plan.
Thank you Lee for what you have done. You have written about something incredibly complex in a most readable and understandable way, a remarkable achievement!

As a stage 5 kidney patient I really wish I had this book 8 years ago. I would pay 10x this just for the essential info about PRAL and albumin levels. (Things my GP and Nephrologists have never mentioned!!!) You don’t have to read all the scientist studies, just read all the clearly written eye opening rest of it. Halt your deterioration. Extend your life. Buy this book. Amen.

Overwhelming facts and figures.
Not for the feint hearted or those looking for straight forward do’s, dont’s and hints for life style changes.
Sent back. I’m a health care professional and I’ll never have the patience, time or stamina to read it!
by Mrs. S. Mitchell
This book is brilliant. So well researched and backed up correctly so that you know he’s done the work.
Followed the recommendations for three months and my rGFR has gone from 50 to 57 ! Age 58.
For anyone who thinks it’s long- winded…. I’m sure they’ll find dialysis pretty tedious as well. This is your life, live it !
I’d LOVE some more recipes though.

This is a long, technical book about doing what you can to slow or stop kidney disease from progressing, and even perhaps to put it into reverse by eating the right food and avoiding ingredients that harm your kidneys.
It is therefore based on willpower and how well you can stick to the guidance. For me to do this, it’s essential to understand why.
Why I need to take action in stage 3 (to slow down progress to stage 4 and beyond) and why the diet says “don’t eat X, Y and X” and “do eat A, B and C”.
I appreciate all the explanations and links to the research. The book was published in 2019, so it’s quite up to date (I’m writing in early 2021).
However, the book is a complicated read because of the multiple stages of kidney disease so only some of the research will be very relevant to you now. Much of it is hard to read and at a level I don’t understand.
The big message I’m getting is that meat and other animal products are bad for people with CKD. High in protein, acidic, high in nitrogen…
I have criticisms.
The book is very good for explaining why you shouldn’t eat X because of risk factor/condition A etc.
It’s not good at pulling everything together. I’ve finished up very confused. I want a list of core ingredients I can use safely and others I can eat in moderation, either through small quantities or by making sure that if ingredient B is an issue in problem C, I must combine it with other ingredients that are low on that area.
The author has developed a nitrogen free protein pill to top up protein requirements. On the one hand, it is good that someone is working on solutions, on the other, you can feel cynical about some of the content.
Having checked what the NHS and UK kidney charities are saying about diet, this book is very extreme.
I think it’s great that it makes you think about what you eat. Unfortunately I’m left feeling frightened about eating pretty much everything because I’ve lost sight of the big picture.
I am reducing the amount of animal protein I eat and I’ll see what happens to my blood results.

This book is a godsend. There is so much conflicting advice out there for anyone who wants to look after their kidneys it’s a mine field. But this has so much information backed up with scientific studies and tests and no better example of how this works than from Lee himself.
I have learned so much, but feel that I would like to go through all of the relevant points again and make notes and try to commit a lot to memory.
I know it’s a huge ask, but a book listing as many basic food products and their contents would be invaluable, it would enable myself and others to try and plan their menus around their families.
Keep up the great work you’re doing, educating us all one person at a time! 😀

Very technical, very detailed.
