Low Protein Diet
I'm starting a low protein diet and allowed 46 grams a day. I have a few questions: (1) does this allowance involve both plant and animal protein; (2] if it involves plant protein, does the plant protein have to be "complete " proteins or just any proteins; (3) if I only eat 30 grams on a day, can

Memory worsening
I have recently increased my dose from 25/50 alternate days to 50 every day. My memory is worsening. I completely forgot my husband’s birthday today although I know I remembered it a few days back. I was writing my Dads birthday card last week and wrote To and then couldn’t remember what I was doing.

Private GP? Can they help?
Hi all, I have ordered a private blood tests this morning thanks to this group. Long story short I’m on 75mg of LEVO and have been for 6 years. I have been working with a PT on a calorie controlled gluten free diet for over 6 weeks with little results. The PT suggested I looked into T3 conversation

Supplement timing
Hey just wanted to check in on timing the following supplements and if you would add any others in or increase the amount. I take 150mg of Levothyroxine in the morning an hour before anything but water. I eat a gluten free diet and am careful about cross contamination. Sadly disnt get tested before

How to Increase BDNF
So somebody over on FB posted they were taking BDNF for PD anxiety (or maybe just for anxiety) so I Googled and found BDNF = Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and BDNF supplements do not contain Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor. But I did find this article on strongcoffee.com. https://strongcoffeecompany.com

Dipyridamole, Adenosine and RLS (Oh My)
Warning, this stuff below is boring. Read only if you have insomnia. I am trying to understand the effects of Dipyridamole and Adenosine in RLS. In reading all the papers, I have been taking notes. It's interesting to me that some of the things I have been reading about are quite common to read

How do you all get your calories on a low protein diet?
My husband is trying to eat as low protein as possible while still eating healthy and getting 2000 calories per day. He's only 142 pounds so he cannot afford to lose weight. We found on Kidney.org that is says to add syrup from canned fruit or to eat candy. We think that that is terrible advice. Anyone

Low Sodium Salt
Thinking of my blood pressure I want to reduce the salt in my diet. I have some low sodium salt (Brand: Saxa So-Low) in which the reduced sodium is primarily taken up with potassium chloride instead. The packet says it contains 50% less sodium than table salt. It has 51% potassium chloride and 48% salt

Update with Nephrology, Losartan discontinued from my treatment plan
To give an update for today, I talked with Nephrology and losartan was discontinued for now. I was told that hypoglycemia was a rare side effect of the medication so they would like for me to repeat labs in 2-4 weeks. As for my kidney function decreasing, I was told that the increase in BUN and Creatinine

Low carb diet and high dose prednisone
Hi everyone, I am just wondering if the level of prednisone affects whether or not the low carb diet prevents weight gain. I have gca and have been on high dose prednisone for several weeks now . I am still on 50 mg as I am still having some issues with lingering jaw claudication. I see a rheumatologist

Using Albutrix
I have been using Albutrix for one month. Until I receive my next blood and 24-hour urine test results, I do not know how well it works. I have read the entire book, Stopping Kidney Disease by Lee Hull. It is excellent. I have started to read some of the referenced scientific articles, such as:

Some thoughts on Gluten sensitivity
Gluten, which is found in wheat, may exacerbate Parkinson's-related symptoms in some patients. A brain scan was done on the man that showed abnormalities that were consistent with lower levels of dopamine production, which when combined with the clinical data, led the doctor to diagnose him with PD.
