[lizaduke]

hi,

i am liza & 29 years old.in September my GFR was 31 but now it is 25.can you suggest me how to increase GFR?

I don't think there is much you can do apart from keep well hydrated & eat healthy keep a good healthy weight it depends also on whats caused your problems!

Eat more vegetables and less meat. Increased creatinine and low GFR go hand-in-hand; one issue generally won't be present without the other. Quit smoking. Try a low salt diet. Consume less potassium and phosphorus. Drink nettle leaf tea. Exercise regularly. Manage your weight.
