Kidney disease diet mistakes can silently damage your kidneys, especially if you are over 55.

You will learn why spinach increases oxalates, how whole wheat bread and brown rice raise phosphorus levels, and why avocados are a potassium bomb for kidney disease patients. You will also discover safer kidney-friendly food swaps and how to avoid hidden mineral dangers. This video is for educational purposes only.
