[RDHQ Info] 🍔 CKD-Friendly or Not? What to Avoid at Fast Food Restaurants


Hi Reader,

Let’s be honest—fast food is convenient, tasty, and sometimes just what we crave. But if you’re living with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), it’s more important than ever to be mindful of what goes into your body.

👉 That’s why I just released a brand-new video:🎥 Fast Food Items To Avoid With CKD.

In this video, I break down:

  • The most common fast food items that can harm your kidneys
  • What ingredients to watch for (hint: it’s not just salt!)
  • Better choices that satisfy your cravings AND support your kidney health
  • Practical swaps for when you’re eating out or on the go

As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist who specializes in CKD, I’m here to help you take small, manageable steps toward a healthier life—without giving up everything you love. This video is packed with helpful insights that can make a big difference in your daily choices.
