I was looking at my weekly Responsum and they reported a study in Spaini believe Nd it shows the Mediterranean diet is beneficial for kidney disease reduction. I can deal with that!

Yes, the limited protein. olive oil and other natural foods with the Mediterranean is definitely a good diet to follow.

Yes the Mediterranean diet serves you well. It encourages limiting beef, pork, eggs, and lamb, as well as salt-water fish in addition to liver, dairy products, and shellfish. Trimethylamine (TMA) is a byproduct generated from the gut microbial metabolism of dietary amines such as choline, betaine, and carnitine that originate from animal-based foods. The liver changes TMA into TMAO (trimethylamine-N-oxide). One 2015 study found that CKD patients had higher concentrations of TMAO than controls without CKD. Furthermore, higher levels of circulating TMAO were associated with a worsened CKD prognosis and poorer long-term survival. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG is a probiotic that may lower TMAO. I encourage researching and discussing TMAO with your health care provider.
