Episode 48 of the PKD Dietitian Podcast kicks off the first "Fact vs. Fiction" segment tackling myths about meat consumption for those with Polycystic Kidney Disease. Is it necessary to eliminate meat from your diet if you have PKD? The PKD Dietitian will clarify that while a PKD diagnosis doesn't mean you must stop eating meat, paying attention to the type and amount of protein you consume is important.  Diana will break down the three primary protein sources—plant protein, animal meat, and animal-derived products—and highlight the benefits of incorporating more plant-based proteins into your diet.
With practical tips like Meatless Mondays and understanding plant-forward eating, she aims to clear up misconceptions and offer actionable advice to support your PKD kidney health through mindful protein consumption.
