The Kidney Health Method gets results...

As an alternative medicine provider myself, when I was diagnosed with Stage 4 PKD a year ago it was a shock to me, my clients, and family. Knowing about nutrition and other healing modalities, I worked through and made lots of changes and made progress, but I found myself stuck with my numbers, my GFR and Creatinine levels wouldn't budge any further and my Nephrologist, while very capable, told me that no matter what I did I would still need a transplant within 4 years, but don't worry, he said, we'll get you that transplant before you need dialysis! My BP was 116/65 and he wanted me to take BP meds, and everytime I went, another medication was offered (and refused). I always left depressed, angry and dejected because I knew the body could heal. I realized that he had no interest in healing my kidneys, he was there to manage disease! I scheduled an appointment with Jessianna and it is the best decision I've ever made. I have such great respect for her passion and knowledge, she went right to the root of the issue, my missing puzzle piece, and I saw immediate change. She factored in emotional issues and blocks to my improvement that I should've seen but didn't! This is truly a holistic practice, and I felt like finally there is someone I can work with as a partnership working towards a goal of true healing. I can't wait to see how much my kidneys heal and I can't wait to get my labs redone to see how the labs reflect the changes. Now I finally feel totally empowered instead of defeated! --Becky Rupert, ND, CCH, PGHom

"Also, I wanted to share my latest labs - please see attached. All looking good including the bicarbonate, which is back in normal (only just but I'll take it!). My eGFR is 58, which as you will see from my eGFR history, also attached, is my highest reading since Sept 2021, when it was 59. And since starting Keto on 13 Jan this year, my eGFR has steadily climbed from a starting point of 41 - long may that continue! Needless to say, I am thrilled with the result, and I am feeling really positive about Keto and eternally grateful for your help and guidance. I now see this as a lifestyle and am committed to following it for the long term. " - Alison C

Working with Diana has been truly transformational. Diana's knowledge of PKD, and how a diet and supplements could improve kidney function was astounding. With her guidance, we turned an imminent dialysis diagnosis into stabilization and improvement in function and numbers. From the start, Diana was supportive and caring, a true partner. She was incredibly patient and always listened to concerns. She went above and beyond to help me succeed and get me healthy. I would highly recommend Diana Bruen, without a single doubt.

I cannot express how grateful I am for Diana’s expertise! My husband’s GFR, creatinine and BUN scores improved by 30% after seven weeks of eating 95% vegan and lowering protein to 40 grams a day. GFR from 15-->20, BUN 63-->27, Creat 4.1 -->3.03. My 70 year old husband has late stage kidney disease that was caused by acute damage (not by diabetes or high blood pressure.) Aside from his kidneys, he is in great health. He does not want transplantation nor is he interested in dialysis. My husband's nephrologist told us his kidney function would decrease over time with little hope of any significant improvement. He was concerned that my husband would lose too much weight. He has not. And now we are increasing potassium in his diet AND stepping down the potassium meds. Anonymous

Diana is great. She is very knowledgeable and continuously researches the most current and relevant clinical information. I was trying to find the optimal diet and recipes to deal with my health issues, [but] everything I was reading was not only confusing but contradicted one another. She straightened all that out for me. She is also very kind and caring which makes her easy to talk to. You feel very comfortable asking questions and discussing personal issues. Diana is also very accessible, setting up meetings promptly and responding quickly to e-mails. I very much appreciate the rapid access to an expert and professional. Peter P.

Lydia gave me comfort in my choices and supplied research based encouragement to pursue dietary interventions to my PKD management. On top of that, she was a joy to speak with. Her email follow ups alone were incredibly helpful. I appreciated the time and effort Lydia put into our discussion. Parker H.

Lydia is very prompt to respond to questions. She is open to questions and open to new ideas. She is very patient and supportive. Plant-based, Low oxalate diet is best, with limited protein from meat. Lydia did a good job covering a lot of information in the allotted time however we ran over the allotted time each session probably because I talk too much. She cares and it shows. Howard Ehlers
