ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
Early intervention with kidney diseases is key to slow down progression and protect the kidneys from further damage as well as other comorbidities. There is so much conflicting information for clients with kidney diseases and often interventions do not happen until there are symptoms (at the later stages of kidney diseases). Private practice and outpatient dietitians often see these clients at early stages and can offer evidence-based recommendations to help clients manage and delay progression. With this webinar, we will provide practical tools for you to best support these clients with confidence.
In this 1.5 hour workshop, we will cover:
Overview of kidney diseases and other co-morbidities
Guidelines and recommendations for outpatient / private practice RDs
"Renal Diets"
-When and what for restrictions (protein, potassium, phosphorous, sodium) and when it's unnecessary
-Liberalizing "renal diets"
-What labs to monitor and how often
-Risks and concerns with restrictions and strategies around these concerns
-Considerations with kidney disease with different diets: ie. vegetarian, low fodmap, low carb, keto, cultural foods
Special supplement considerations for kidney disease
-Why the food first approach is especially important for this population
-Risks of common supplements
