The top two causes of kidney failure are number one, diabetes, and number two, high blood pressure. These are often preventable diseases or certainly manageable diseases. Other things like being dehydrated can cause kidney failure or receiving certain toxins from different types of medicines that are harmful. Those are all preventable.

Board certified is what makes me doubt you. MD knows nothing about supplements, proper nutrition or TCM. This makes me question A LOT that you guys advise, bc board certified means nothing more than the fact that other MDs are paraqueeting the same exact story you preach. When you are looking at holistic stuff online it is simple, it is true, and kidney RECOVERY (possible even for those in CKD) doesn't behind in kidneys. The focus must begin on the liver. That means vegan food, FASTING (not in the morning, but at night, because no one needs to eat at night) and PROPER hydration, and by this I don't mean bottled water which is just plastic. I mean plasma - coconut water directly from fruit. Cabbage, dark green and red veggies, ACV and olive oil as the ONLY dressing, and berries. This should be the ONLY FOOD for at least three months to see a difference. Spinach, celery and kale should be steamed. Another reason why is cold food keeps fat on. Stop promoting smoothies. People are mixing vegetables with cow milk and that is completely wrong and disgusting. Key to healing kidneys is fix the liver first. What fixes liver first is fasting. Bananas are not safe for someone with CKD so it's best to eat and drink beets and garlic to lower blood pressure. Phosphorus containing foods must also be avoided. Anyway my stuff is on my website so I won't go into details. Smoothies should not be promoted and celery is not good for people with kidney problems. Look it up in TCM why
I'm selfish with my kidneys, I will not donate any, I love them both.I wouldn't give my car spear tyre away. That's how I view my kidneys. I eat to keep them healthy. I love looking at my annual lab work. If's like getting an A in my classes. I put the work in by eating healthy. . Labs don't lie. There is something called AMLA. It's Indian Gooseberry. I put one wiht real coconut water in the mornings and strain then drink. It's good for kidneys. The foods good for the kidneys are also good for the colon. They are rich in fiber.
About 48yrs ago as a young 22yr old, my left kidney was injured badly in a rugby 🏉 game, which put me in hospital for a few days. Luckily my kidney survived, but the Doctor advised that as I aged, my kidney would eventually fail! I've never Smoked, stopped drinking alcohol & coincidentally, I loved eating everything that Dr Frita has displayed on her kitchen table! Henceforth, as a new 70yr old, my kidneys are churning along happily! Thank you Dr for sharing your knowledge & videos. I've shared this video presentation with my family around the world, as I know how important your message is👌

Awesome!👍
God is good you go 70 in Jesus's name!

No
Items the Doctor mentioned 1. Lemon water 2. Carrots 3. Banana- careful high potassium 4. Parsley & cilantro 5. Oranges - carful high potassium 6. Strawberries - careful high potassium 7. Celery 8. Apples 9. Kale & Spinach - careful of potassium 10. Blueberry & raspberry 11. Honey ok to add as sweetener 12. Cucumbers These would be good for a detox cleanse of kidney
IS HONEY(RAW) GOOD AS A SWEETENER FOR DIABETES?. THANKS.
@@goodearth27 I don’t think 🤔 so
So, should one be having banana, oranges, strawberries, kale and spinach or not?
@@KL-td8dj in moderation
What about Moringa, wheat grass and spirulina?
We need more doctors like this.
I agree!!! Unfortunately med schools only offer 1 nutrition class. We need naturopathic training along with the allopathic
We sure do. I'd like to find her books. I have high blood pressure & was recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. Two of my favorite singers died of kidney disease & I really miss them.
Thanks much Dr Freda important information 👍
Yes ,you are right 🎉
I love how honest you are when letting people know it isn’t a quick fix. Too many times individuals are miss leading when it comes to people’s health. Thanks for your honesty. 😊
Yes, I was one of those people who learned they had CKD just at the time when they wanted to put me on dialysis. My GFR was 17. I had diabetes uncontrolled, and high blood pressure, uncontrolled. They sent for training and asked me which type of dialysis I wanted to have. I said none. So I went on a quest to lower my blood sugar and blood pressure. I lost weight (40lbs). I got my A1c from 7.1 to 5.1 my GFR came up to 35. It still fluctuates a bit but have avoided dialysis for 2 years. I am so happy to discover you. I am hoping to get my blood pressure in tow which I have been unable to do. Thanks for your videos. Will keep you posted. I am developing a tremor. Hope the detox helps. Thanks.
Olive Leaf Extract might help to lower your BP…it has helped me.
How are you doing now?
My blood pressure was high. Mainly I guess from gambling and stressing. I been adding a quarter of a whole beet to my smoothies and my blood pressure has never been better
@@K-xb2qz are the beets fresh or canned?
@@feliciaoliver1816 I first bought the canned beets from whole foods w no sugar added. They worked fine. But once I found whole beets in Walmart. I started buying those. It really works. It's crazy because I eat a low sodium diet, exercise, eat fruits and vegetables and my blood pressure was still high. It would be like 140 ov 90. Now it stays at 113-71. 117 ov 71. Somewhere between there. I check it every Saturday. Try it. It works
7 best 1. Drink water 2. Low sodium 3. Maintain normal Blood pressure 4. Maintain healthy weight 5. Prevent / control Diabetes 6. Exercise 30 minutes 5 days a week 7. Kidney healthy diet, low fat, low carb, low protein
Which has nothing to do with detoxing the kidneys or title
@@robertiniguez1701 exactly
Glad to know bananas are good
Thanks!
Low animal protein is important.
This is one of the best videos I have seen on detoxification of the kidneys. She explains the best vegetables & fruits to filter your kidneys. Also, explains (7) ways to help your kidneys filter better. She is very detailed and deliberate in providing the information. Loved watching her little man help out, so respectful as he was departing the kitchen, “love you Mom”. I am in my 70’s and my kidney function is fine, but do like to share healthy strategies with family and friends. And they lived happily ever after… “DON’T YOU DARE GIVE UP”
I love how you asked your son to help you make the smoothie. You are truly setting such a fine example for your son to eat healthy, and to know his way around the kitchen. Thank you, Dr. Frita.
You should NEVER make smoothies with fruit --- ONLY use vegetables!
@@BuddyHill-jr5px I totally agree, I suffer from IBS and those fruits would cause my stomach to be in so much pain and I would bloat all day the only alternative to get rid of it is to drink senna tea or epsom on salts, which means staying in the house for 24 hours.
There is nothing wrong with adding fruit to ur smoothies if ur health allows it. Just because you have IBS does not mean everyone’s body will respond in that manner. This should be obvious before coming on here yelling about it..
I love that your son's involvement seems unscripted and he's just being himself and learning in the process! You are an amazing mother Dr. Frita! These lessons will stay with him for life!
Dr. Frita rocks. At least she explains the foods that are necessary for you and shows you a drink that you can have every day. My Doctor sucks. I fond him not helpful as I brought up foamy pee and he just shrugged it off. That is not health care to me. You have to find out about your decrease yourself and not rely on our Health care system. Dr. Frita has gone beyond the call of duty. She rocks
Please send that info here please. I don't have that app. I don't use other apps. I feel safe here. Don't trust other apps
Most of these Dr's don't care about us. Their only in it for the money . We have to take control of our health.

Hello everyone I'm here with Joy in My heart to say a very big thank you to Dr OKOSODO on KZhead a herbalist From Africa for curing me permanently from Florida thank you doc and God bless,... kzhead.info/tools/7Qx8cMXo_vf2rwcTrt_CFw.html
The archaic meaning of the word “doctor” means teacher. Dr. Frita is a doctor in more ways than one. This is a very exceptional and excellent lesson in kidney nutrition. More nephrologists need to teach their patients about their home kidney healthcare.
Drinking water has helped me in all areas of my body. Learning to chew my food better helped my stomach. I am basically eating vegetarian and watching for additives in my food. I am going to be 83 in February. I am not using milk straight, but I eat some cheese, yogurt plain.I had a leg fused after trying to get rid of a bacteria for 6years. I @m limited by antibiotic use. I got rid of most medicine. My feet shook, now they do not.
Eat some fruit GRAPES
I'm going through the process of being a kidney donor and I've been so stressed out and hoping that my kidneys are healthy enough to do so and praying that I'm a match for the girl in my town. 🙌
Hi Nonamj15: Meditate on Philippians 4:6-7: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
nothing is impossible in the Name of JESUS ! HALELUYAH !!
We need more doctors like this.. We need more doctors like this..
Sweet moment with your son! Thanks for sharing. Thank you also for the honesty that we do not have to do these fads and expensive detoxes. Food is medicine!
Thanks write more you know better, I will learn from you.
I love this interaction with her kid. That’s so real😂😂😂. Thank you doc for this video
Thank you Dr Frida. I have been looking for “how to reverse kidney disease “ and your video came up. I just found out that my mom is in stage 3 kidney disease. Needless to say, it was a shock. I can only hope it can be reversed and hope that she can incorporate the vegetables and fruits mentioned as a smoothie.
Apple Cider Vinegar - I know of a man was in kidney failure and began taking ACV and his kidneys started working much better.
Bless you doctor Frita. I will put in action,
Thank you Dr. Freda for the important information about our Kidneys. I learned a lot, and like many of the foods you showed. It was nice seeing your son too.
Thanks Dr. Frita, I started watching your videos and they have been so helpful. I have been cutting my sodium intake and eating healthier thanks to your video that have been showing me the way. Thank you.
TY Dr. Frita. I love your channel and your entire vibe. I lost my dad and his dad too kidney failure and cancer with diabetes. I'm trying to learn more about how to take better care of my self and this is a wealth of information
Dr. Frita, I enjoyed seeing your well mannered son! Please share this with him - so he'll be proud of his good manners & behavior.
Thank you once again, Dr. Frita. Good to see your cute son! This video is educative for me in respect of potassium consumption. I've been avoiding banana and spinach in particular. Now I know I need them in moderate quantity. Thank you.

We Need More Mothers Like This
🙄🤔🤯 aren't all moms like this? I know there's deadbeats in the world but the majority of moms I have met AR like this
Thank you, this is a most comprehensive presentation.
Thank you Dr Frita for all your good advice. I enjoyed the addition of Gregory, and would like to see more of him. My son is now grown and Gregory brought back memories of the fun back and forth between parent and child. 😂
😂🤣 I love how you do not change for the camera just because your son is there. 🤣😂 Loving the family dynamic. You guys are so funny.
New subscriber yesterday and watched 8 videos overnight ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I am going to be strong and healthy. Thank you Dr Frita
Omgoodness. Years ago, a small mass, (cancer), was found on one of my kidneys. I was told by the nephrologist, that it was advisable to have it removed. I was never told what I just heard you say that, "the kidney that the one kidney would then do the work of two." All of these years, I'm just imagining that my one kidney is having to work SO hard now!!! Thank you, THANK YOU, for this info, Dr.🥰😊
Gregory I thought you might enjoy the story my Mom shared when she was a little girl in Germany 1940s she never had banana or orange before no one told her to peel them. She took a bite and yuk, she threw them away. It so nice you are learning how to make smoothie with your Mom! Thank You Dr. Frita! 😊 GOD Bless You and your Lo Ed ones and keep you safe. HAPPY 4TH!

❤like your teachings how doing know if my urine has protein in it thank for information ❤
@@ingridreefer3236if your urine have bubble Also test in hospital can show
Sounds like bannanas,oranges, strawberries,spinach are,damn if you do, and damn if you don't.
Dr. Frita's internal beauty, knowledge and goodness emanates from her! Thank you Dr. Frita for your caring and help.
Dr Frita thank u very much for ur highly valued video, simply well presented, pleasure to watch and easy to follow, 👍🙂.
Nice video! I want to add.. cilantro = strong blood cleanser and binds to heavy metals (you need a lot of it to make a significant difference) parsley = strong diuretic plus specific tonic for the kidneys + lots of calcium (root for the adrenals) apples = malic acid dissolves kidney and liver stones (but you need 1L of apple juice x 6 consecutive days) - I look at apples more for the bowels but i would do the apple juice if i thought i had stones.
Great video Dr Frita! So many great foods for anti inflammation and vitamins . I have been eating like a rabbit and have been feeling so much better😊
I'm 50-years old, thank you for the tips and sharing this. Definitely, I need to have lifestyle makeover. 🙏🏼
Doctor Frida , so beautifully spoken & explained , so simplest video , feels good on hearing your video , thank you 🙏
Thanks Dr.
Like your video on kidney health. Especially love the interaction with the kid...😊 He appeared not interested in the beginning but quickly got into it. Keep up the good teaching. Warren D.
I love this video and thank you Dr. Frita for the Detox healthy tip.
This is one of the most important videos I have seen regarding detoxing. Thanks Dr Frida. This is Cliff from Toronto Canada.
Dr. Frita great video, you should bring your assistant (son) more often. Very entertaining.🙏💜❤️
Thank you for this video much needed your son is so cute 🥰 keep up good work Dr Doctor
You sre such a good doctor! And very informative. Thank you!
Dr Frita thank you so much for sharing this useful information.
Great info! We need more videos like this and your son is such a cutie pie. Happy New Year and best of health to you all ✨️ !!
Have kidney issues .. Systemic Lupus .. ugh 😪 Thank you for the information..
Very informative and useful advice, thank you so much. Your kid will one day be as knowledgeable as you doctor, that’s what a complete family should be like, a great family.
I watch all the time as my dr expects me to know what to do. Thanks to Dr. Frita. I am learning what to do. Wish she was nearby to become my actual dr.
I love Dr. Frita. From the mouths of our Elders; to their children, "Go read a book or something." 24:24
Thanks Dr. Frita for kidney information. I received a cadaver kidney a little over two 2⃣ years ago after being on dialysis for six years. After getting this "new lease on life", I want to do better with my gift. This info is very helpful, God bless!
What do you mean by "Cadaver" kidney ? Remember it was a person who gave you that gift.
@@saraswatkin9226 I believe they are trying to differentiate between a living donor and a cadaver donor.
Shout out from Rwanda Africa. Love your videos and your information content. You are also very encouraging because you look healthy and appear to take good care of yourself. I can tell that you are a very good doctor and care for people I also love your little man and helper. Thank you so much.
Thanks. Very informative on the potassium intake. I will pay closer attention to that area. Nice to see your humorous son excited to be involved. I recently was diagnosed wirh hypertension n type 2 diabetes. Really giving my body a ster change in diet to reverse / manage.
I love your assistant! Very helpful 👍🏾
I love that he is extra!!
Dr I hope you have a blessed weekend can you please talk about gallbladder stones are they the same as kidneys stones
This is phenomenally incredible and if only people themselves could make time and take initiations to listen to doctor and act accordingly
Awe I love seeing your son with you. He has a beautiful smile. Love his personality too. Reminds me of my son, who unfortunately is with the Lord now, but watching your son, brought me fond memories of me with my son. Thanks.
I learned a lot. I will start an exercise program this week 🙏 thanks

Please take into consideration spinach is VERY HIGH in oxalates. Folks PLEASE don’t be smitten with the “DR” and even this beautiful lady… “not everything is good is good for everyone ALL the time”~Simone K. The Dr made sure to differentiate that the APPROACH for BEING HEALTHY is not COOKIE CUTTER Please know being truly health is a LIFESTYLE… Thank you Dr.Frits, this reminds us all, a HEALTHY AND “Disciplined” is what is gonna take Shalom
Thank, you Dr Frita for this informative video that definitely resonates with me! I currently have a right pole renal cyst that grown a lot since 2018. I pray to get it removed this month or next. My question is: My cyst is on the right but all my pain is on the left. Is that normal? Blessings and Best regards in all your endeavors 🙏
God bless you and keep up the good work. Great job. Thank you
Bad back pain,itching, foamy urine, memory issues, some swelling and fatigue were my main warning signs before I was admitted into the hospital.. My kidneys stopped growing right at or right after I was born. I ground out I was in end stage renal failure when I was 47!
How are you fighting it?
Hi , how are you doing currently and how old are you now?
I pray for your health blessing to come in Jesus' name. I'm sorry for your suffering.
So good to see a doctor talking about the real way to heal and maintain health. There are no magic juices, pills and elixirs. It is a daily choice to lead a healthy lifestyle. Supplements should be used to enhance a healthy lifestyle.
Bravo Dr you are making this simple and clear
I enjoyed your son being himself. And your kidney health ideas. 😀
Love the video with your son, he will remember everything you have shown him, when he becomes an adult. Healthy eating is good for all of us whether we have kidney problems or not. I'm trying to find away to correct cretnenin levels in my diet. I am not a big meat eater and I might be assuming that meat causes the problem. Please advise.

I need this information. Thank you Doctor Frita.
Thank you Doctor Freita I am a stage three kidney patient
Stop eating meat ASAP ! Buy the book called The Grape Cure. Seeded grapes are very good for the kidneys. Learn what your labs mean. Don't trust your Dr. Most of them are waiting for you to go on dialysis. They get rich when you get on that machine. Meat turn into uric acid in the body. It destroys our kidneys.
Great information Dr Frita ! I have not been diagnosed yet but I developed Kidney issues after getting Covid last year. I’ve been drinking Burdock Root Tea & Dandelion Tea while also eating much Fruit & Vegetables ! I’ve also stopped eating ALL Meat ! This video was very informative Thank you so much ! Please add your adorable Handsome Son more often !!! 😊😊😊
Do u believe covid caused it?
