My friend is suffering from mild kidney disease due to diabete. will beer to improve kidney function?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diabetes and beer: Beer has no role at all in improving diabetic kidney function. Have your friend ask his nephrologist (n) for more information. If she has no n, it is time she found one.
