59 | Better Kidney Function & HbA1c on a Plant-Based Diet (and Pills Cut By 85%!) – Interview with Rhonda [Part 1]

What’s it like to have an autoimmune disease, resulting in borderline kidney failure and be on the verge of needing a kidney transplant? It must have been really scary to deal with. That’s what today’s guest Rhonda faced. She had just been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called IgA nephropathy which significantly impairs kidney function, and in her acute hospitalization, it was found that her Glomerular Filtration Rate (GRF) had already dropped to the super low level of 12. She was about to be put on the transplant list, but she wasn’t even 50 years old yet and still had a full life ahead of her, not to mention another grandchild on the way to love.   Yet, following the advice of her kidney doctor, she decided to give plant-based eating a try…and what results she experienced within just 6 months of making this change! Hear about the health transformation Rhonda experienced in part 1 of this Guest Interview. Not only did her kidney function improve naturally, her HbA1c dropped drastically from 8.2 to 5.4, her mental health got better and she went way down in pills. Listen in to learn more of Rhonda’s story and be inspired!     ** DON’T MISS IT! 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY PODCAST DRAWING EVENT ENDS TONIGHT!** To celebrate the milestone of this Podcast reaching the 1-year anniversary mark, I’m giving away a FREE 1:1 Private Coaching Session to a listener.
