The Wrap - Kidney Essentials

Many factors can compromise the kidneys’ ability to perform the vital work of filtering blood. Decreased kidney function may be the result of common conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, inherited illnesses such as polycystic kidney disease, or even inflammatory conditions of the kidney. But did you know that nutrition and an improved diet can help those with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)? And that U-M Health has specialized renal dietitians to help patients? Meet one of those dietitians, Terrie Holewinski, on the latest episode of The Wrap employee podcast! Holewinski discussed what she loves about her job and gave listeners an inside look at a course she runs called “Kidney Essentials,” which provides patients with CKD information they need to live their lives well.
