Understand What to Eat for CKD Without Fear or Guessing
If you have ever been told your potassium or phosphorus is high and walked away with no idea what to do next, you are not alone. Most people with CKD are overwhelmed by conflicting advice, scary food lists, and confusing numbers. You deserve clarity.
I created this program to help you understand your numbers, know how to use them, and build meals that fit your needs without fear. When you know what to eat and how much to eat, everything feels more manageable.
Why Your Doctor & Dietitian Aren’t Giving You the Answers You Need
You walk into your appointment, ready for answers, hoping for a clear plan you can follow. Instead, you walk out with a list of restrictions that feels impossible to use in real life. Sound familiar?
You’re not alone. This is the reality for most people with CKD.
Why this keeps happening:
🔹 Your Doctor focus on managing labs, medications, and dialysis. Not teaching you how to eat day-to-day.
🔹 Your (renal) dietitian gives you medical-level guidelines but doesn’t have time to show you how to make those numbers fit into real meals.
🔹 And that’s where I come in.
I bridge the gap between medical advice and real life.
As a Renal Nutrition Educator, Dietary Consultant, and CKD Chef, I help you understand your personal nutrition numbers and turn them into meals that work, simply and without giving up the foods you love.
👉 This is what the CKD Nutrition Program is designed to do.
Your Personalized CKD Nutrition Program
A step-by-step system that helps you take control of your kidney health through food, without the confusion or fear.
🔹Get your per meal CKD nutrition numbers for sodium, potassium, phosphorus, protein, and more.
🔹Understand what those numbers mean and how to use them daily.
🔹Learn how to CKD-ify™ your meals so you can still enjoy the foods you love.
🔹Balance your diet with other health issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart issues, anemia, and more
🔹Simplify your meal planning with clear, flexible systems that fit your lifestyle.
🔹Build confidence to manage your CKD diet long-term. No conflicting advice, no BS.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all “renal diet.”
It’s your kidney diet, built for your health, your preferences, and your goals.

On the Fence? You’re Not Alone.
It’s completely normal to wonder if this program is the right fit. Most people with CKD feel the same way at first—uncertain, hesitant, and not sure if anything will really work.
That’s why I encourage you to hear from people who were once in your shoes.
They had the same doubts… and now they’re living with clarity, confidence, and a diet that finally makes sense.
I’m so grateful to have helped so many individuals finally take control of their CKD diet, and their results speak louder than I ever could.
Q & A
Do I need to buy the Numbers before joining the program?
No. The program teaches you how your numbers work and how to shift them safely. Many people join the program first so they can learn the whole system. If you prefer to get your numbers first, that is fine too.
If I already bought my numbers, do I get a discount on the program?
No. The numbers and the program serve two different purposes. Numbers give you your limits. The program teaches you how to use them, shift them, and build your daily diet with confidence.
What if my numbers need to be updated later?
When you need updated numbers due to changes in labs, health, or goals, you can purchase a new calculation at the same rate. Each calculation is based on one set of information.
Does the program include a personalized calculation?
No. Your personal numbers are not included in the program. You can buy your numbers separately for $49 or $99 with a consult.
What is the 15 minute consult for?
The consult helps you understand your numbers. It is not a coaching call and does not include meal planning. If you want full guidance, the CKD Nutrition Program is the best fit.
What if I want dietary advice instead of just my numbers?
You will want the CKD Nutrition Program. The consult is only for explaining your numbers. Dietary guidance and meal planning education are part of the program.
Can I join the program later?
Yes, but the price may be higher later. If you know you want full support, it’s best to join now before price increases
What if I’ve already tried diets and failed?
You’re not alone. Most people with CKD have “failed” diets in the past or wasted their money on "classes" that didn't teach them what they really need to know.
The truth is, those plans weren’t designed for you.
They focused on generic food lists, broad restrictions, or trendy rules that don’t translate into real life with CKD.
That’s exactly why I built the CKD Nutrition Program. It isn’t another one-size-fits-all diet you’ll find online. You won’t find this anywhere else, because it combines:
Your numbers, your stage, your health needs → we build your safe ranges first, so you’re never guessing.
Practical meal-building tools → instead of lists and limits, you learn how to turn food into meals that work for you.
Flavor-first cooking strategies → because if it doesn’t taste good, you won’t stick with it.
Other diets left you feeling restricted, frustrated, or confused. This one gives you clarity, confidence, and a way forward that’s sustainable.
Do I Have to Wait Until I Have My Restriction Numbers Before Joining the Program getting my numbers?
No. If you don’t have them yet, you can start with our defaults. Once you have your numbers, you’ll know exactly how to use them.
Is there a book instead of online?
Yes. The book contains the same basic system in print form, but the online program gives you videos, tools, and bonus information as well as support. It is available at the program price on Amazon, or you can purchase it at a discounted rate through the program.
Is the program suitable for all stages of CKD?
Yes, the CKD Nutrition Program is designed to work for all stages of CKD. We customize the program based on your unique needs, whether you’re in early stages or managing more advanced CKD.
What if I have other health conditions?
The CKD Nutrition Program shows you exactly how to manage CKD with your other health issues and how to make one meal for the family, too.
How long will it take to complete?
It’s completely self-paced. You can watch lessons, use the tools, and apply strategies at your own speed. Access is instant once you join.
What's included in the program?
Video lessons, planning tools, food lists, cooking strategies, and the CKD calculator are all included. You’ll also get access to the members-only hub for extra support.
Do You Offer 1:1 Help?
For those who are enrolled in the online program, questions are answered in the private members hub, OR you may purchase an assistance call for 1:1 guidance.
Are there discounts or payment plans?
Flexible payment plans are available.
Will the program price increase in the future?
Yes. As more training and resources are added, the price may increase. Your price is locked in at enrollment.
Do you offer refunds?
All sales are final due to the digital nature of the content.
I still have questions. Can you help me decide if this is the right fit?
Of course. Reach out anytime and we can schedule a free call.
Ready to Stop Guessing and Start Living?
You don’t have to keep feeling confused, frustrated, or afraid of food.
The CKD Nutrition Program gives you the clarity, tools, and support to finally feel confident in your diet, and in your life.
Your first step is waiting. Take it now.
