Description

In today’s episode of Kidney Nutrition Nuggets, I’m joined by renal dietitian and kidney stone nutrition expert Melanie Betz, MS, RD, CSR, FAND, FNKF. Together, we’re exploring the connection between chronic kidney disease and kidney stones and how nutrition can play a powerful role in supporting both.  


In this conversation, Melanie and I walk through the overlap between CKD and stone prevention, how to get the right testing, and realistic strategies to support both conditions through diet.
