Joan Brookhyser Hogan is a registered dietician who has packed her new book, The VEGETARIAN DIET FOR KIDNEY DISEASE, with clearly stated, up-to-date information on the most effective methods for managing kidney disease. Her focus on vegetarian nutrition comes from a growing awareness of its value in wrestling kidney disease down to size or, in the best-case scenario, stopping the progression of this destructive disease in its tracks.
This valuable book has a great deal of specific information to assist you in implementing, or continuing, a plant-based diet that can help, not harm, the health of your kidneys. Hogan first outlines the benefits of vegetarianism and follows that with chapters on the stages of kidney disease, on common problems associated with the disease and on the relationship of this disease to other disorders. An enlightening discussion of the link between kidneys and diet precedes a diet plan that, also, includes herbs, supplements and other natural products, with a final chapter on detailed meal plans and recipes providing the core of the author's programme. Along with numerous, detailed tables and graphs and a smattering of case histories sprinkled throughout, there are Appendices, Resources and References situated in back that serve to round out the guidelines and highlight the benefits of this relevant book that anyone with chronic kidney disease will find useful, even indispensable.
