This is : Part of a complex condition: see a nephrologist if you have not. Eat animal protein not more than twice a week (19 of 21 meals a week should be vegan), avoid salt, cheese, bacon, soy sauce, kosher salt, garlic ; onion salt, adobo, bouillion ; other sources of sodium. See my wwebsite. www.thepmc.org.

Blood Pressure: High intensity interval training 3 or 4 times per week with bike or running. Magneium 400 to 800 mg per day. Do what you can to get to ideal body weight. Hybiscus tea.

Lowering BP: Please learn the root cause of your kidney disease and high BP - if possible, remedy root causes. Meanwhile, achieve ideal weight, don't smoke, avoid salt, avoid saturated fats, avoid sugar, breads, pizza, muffins; eat mostly fruit, veggies, whole grain, egg whites; avoid animal fat; fish is good; poultry is fine; no skin; no fried food; nuts excellent; exercise twice daily; ask doc about ACEI rx
