Confused by all the kidney diet advice out there?

You’re not alone—and it’s not your fault. Most people are handed a list of foods to avoid but never taught how to eat in a way that supports their kidneys and their life.
You can change that. With the right guidance, you can protect your kidneys, feel confident at mealtime, and actually enjoy food again. That’s where I come in.

Meet Lauren - Your Kidney Nutrition Expert

I’m a Registered Dietitian and Board-Certified Specialist in Renal Nutrition with over a decade of experience helping people protect their kidneys through practical, personalized nutrition. My approach meets you where you are, focuses on what you can eat, and turns complex nutrition advice into everyday habits that last.

My Approach

Deeper Understanding

Instead of memorizing lists of “good” and “bad” foods, I’ll help you understand the why behind your nutrition plan. When you grasp what’s happening inside your body, every food decision becomes easier and more confident.

Results-Driven Guidance

Every recommendation is rooted in evidence and outcomes. From improving labs to slowing disease progression, my goal is to help you see measurable improvements in your health—not just temporary fixes.

Practical, Real-Life Solutions

Kidney nutrition doesn’t have to mean complicated recipes or strict food rules. I focus on realistic strategies that fit your lifestyle—so you can make progress without turning your meals (or your life) upside down.
