This landed under my reel a few weeks ago, and it needs to be addressed.

Someone commented:

“A GFR of 66 is normal.”

Let’s be clear 👇

A GFR of 90 or above is considered normal on paper, but even that doesn’t automatically mean healthy kidney function.

You can have a “normal” GFR and still have kidney disease if there’s:

➡️Albumin in the urine

➡️Abnormal imaging

➡️Genetic risk

➡️High blood pressure

➡️Prediabetes or diabetes

➡️Or a downward trend over time

A GFR of 66 means kidney function is already reduced.

In many cases, that’s stage 2 CKD.

And here’s the thing! 99% of my clients don’t come to me at stage 1.

They come after years of being told: “You’re fine, just watch it,” 🤷🏻‍♀️while their numbers slowly decline.

So yes 👏🏼improving a GFR from 66 → 83 matters.

It’s not cosmetic. It’s a real shift in kidney health, labs, and long-term risk.

Kidney disease isn’t one number.
Early education changes outcomes.

I NEVER want my clients to simply memorize a list of “kidney-friendly” foods.

I want them to understand WHY.

Why this recommendation?
Why this portion?
Why this restriction?

Because the goal isn’t to blindly follow a renal diet.

It’s to understand your kidney health well enough to make confident decisions for yourself.

This is why I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to CKD nutrition.

Because without understanding the ”why”behind your eGFR and creatinine trends, it‘s really hard to know what to focus on.

And unfortunately, that’s where many people get stuck.

They follow generalized food rules, keep restricting more foods, and still don‘t see the improvements they’re hoping for.

For 30+ years, Jose was living with CKD and doing what most people are told to do:

👉🏼following “renal diet rules” from different sources

👉🏼and hoping it would be enough to stabilize his labs.

But nothing ever really made sense.

Different doctors, different advice, different restrictions…

🤷🏻‍♀️and still no clear understanding of why his kidney function wasn’t improving.

By the time we started working together, his GFR was 44.

What stood out most wasn’t just nutrition changes, it was finally giving him clarity.

We went through his labs step by step, understood what was driving his numbers, and translated that into a simple, individualized eating pattern.

Within weeks, his labs started to shift in a way he hadn’t seen in decades.

His GFR improved from 44 → 63 in 3 weeks, and then to 80 about a month later.

What I want you to take away isn’t just the numbers.

It’s the pattern.

Most people with CKD aren’t failing because they’re not trying hard enough.

They’re stuck following generalized advice that was never designed for their individual labs or lifestyle.

When you understand what your labs are actually telling you, and how to translate that into real food decisions…

✅that’s when things start to click.

Still not seeing any change in your kidney labs?

This might be tough to hear 👇🏼

…but it’s time to stop convincing yourself you’re on the right track…

…and start looking at what you’re actually doing. 👇🏼

Let’s start by ditching that outdated “foods to avoid” handout you got for CKD.

⭐ The truth?

Many of those lists, even ones from doctor’s offices, are outdated and far too restrictive.

Here’s what you need to know:

With CKD, very few foods are truly off limits.
(Star fruit is one exception. Always a no.)

In fact, many foods you’ve been told to avoid, like fruits, vegetables, and beans 🫘, can actually support kidney health.

🌱 They’re naturally low in sodium, alkaline forming, and packed with antioxidants.

But here’s the catch…

❌ If you keep Googling or relying on generic advice, you may be doing more harm than good.

Restrictive diets and misinformation can leave you confused, undernourished, and struggling to manage your kidney health.
