Hello! We created this page to share trustworthy and practical information about diet and kidney disease.

We are Lina and Nevine, two registered dietitians from the UK & the co-founders of KidneyWise, helping people with CKD Stage 3 and 4 with diet and lifestyle advice.

The most confusing part of the kidney diet is… 🧐

We’ll start: the mixed messages. 😢

One person says “eat wholegrain bread”, another says “choose white bread”… and your brain goes 🤯

Let’s turn this into a helpful thread - because if you’re confused, you’re definitely not the only one.

Going vegetarian doesn’t automatically = better kidneys. 🧐

We see people try to go veggie and still end up with meals that are high salt, too little protein and just not balanced. 😅

It's not about the label - it’s the pattern of eating: more plants, less processed foods and lower salt - and in a way you can stick with. 💚

Follow us for simple, realistic CKD nutrition (no extremes and no guilt). 🥰

Dry January is everywhere right now - and if you have CKD, you might be wondering if you should do it too. 💚

Alcohol can affect:
- Blood pressure
- Hydration
- Sleep
- The “next day” food choices (hello salty takeaways)

For some people, avoiding alcohol helps them feel better fast. For others, a smarter approach might be reducing frequency and alcohol units rather than going all-or-nothing. 😉

Comment ALCOHOL, and we’ll send you our blog post on alcohol + CKD (including lots of practical tips). 👌

January can make you feel like you need to “fix everything” dramatically overnight. However, with CKD, the best changes are usually the boring but consistent ones. 💚

These 5 ideas are simple, realistic, and actually build momentum - without turning your diet into a full-time job. 😎

Which one would help you most right now - 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5?

If New Year’s resolutions make you feel pressured (or like you’ve “failed” by week 2)… you’re not alone. 💚

But with CKD, the best changes are usually the simplest ones - the ones you can do on busy days and low-energy days. 💫

Here are 3 habits worth taking into 2026 because they support kidney health and fit into real life:

💧 Drink enough water (in a way that fits your fluid advice)
🍲 Cook more meals (more control over salt + portions)
🚶‍♀️ Move every day (even short, gentle movement counts)

You don’t need a total overhaul. You need a few habits that quietly add up. 😉

Happy New Year from all of us at KidneyWise. 💚

If you’re living with CKD, the start of a new year can bring mixed feelings – hope, worry, determination, exhaustion… or all of the above. You don’t need big resolutions or a perfect plan to “deserve” a fresh start. Small, kind steps towards looking after yourself count too. 💫

This year, we’ll be here with you:
- Breaking down confusing kidney information
- Sharing practical food and lifestyle tips
- Helping you feel less alone and more confident with CKD

You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. 🥰

We’d love to hear from you:

What’s ONE small thing you’d like to focus on for your kidney health in 2026? 😌

Tired of “New Year, new you” messages that expect you to change everything overnight – especially when you’re already managing CKD? Then you don't want to miss our next newsletter! 😎

Big resolutions can feel exhausting and unrealistic when you’re juggling appointments, blood tests, fatigue and everyday life. What actually makes a difference to your kidney health is much simpler: small habits you can stick with on ordinary days, not just in January.

In our next email newsletter, we’re talking all about habits for CKD! It’s calm, practical and designed to help you feel more in control, not more pressured. 💚
