Hi! I’m vanessa, your kidney nutrition coach

I’m a Maryland native (crab cakes and football, baby!! 🏈), now living the Lowcountry life in South Carolina, and I’ve helped hundreds of clients just like you improve their GFR levels and kidney function – all without giving up their favorite foods. 

Optimizing your kidney function and eating a nutritious diet that doesn’t cut out your favorite foods are two things that you won’t often hear in the same sentence… especially from your Nephrologist. But I’m here to tell you that not only can you accomplish both of those things to slow down kidney disease or prevent dialysis… but you can do them while living a life you love.

THE DETAILS

Thrive Kidney Method

is a self-paced course designed to hand you (and your kidneys!) the tools you need so you know what and how to eat for CKD.

Wouldn’t it be nice to go into your fridge and know exactly which snack to grab that won’t ruin your bloodwork? It’s time to take the confusion out of the kitchen and easily improve your GFR with a complete framework designed to support your kidney health and get the right results in your kidney numbers.

THIS program is for you if:

  • You feel frustrated and overwhelmed when you think about planning meals because you can’t seem to balance foods that you WANT to eat with foods you SHOULD eat. 
  • You know that your current plan of guessing which foods will work and hoping for the best, only to be filled with dread when you need to go for a checkup is not working anymore.  
  • Every time you think you’re eating something that’ll help your kidney function, it doesn’t seem to work and leaves you feeling more frustrated and hopeless than when you started. 
  • You beat yourself up and tell yourself you’ve failed when you indulge in foods like cheese or nuts because you don’t think you can eat any foods you enjoy while also improving your kidney numbers. 
  • You spend more hours than you can count searching Dr. Google for an answer, trying to sift through information that ultimately leaves you overwhelmed, confused and more hopeless than when you started.

Client Successes

“When I got my results, I was amazed!”

I had heard lots of diabetes success stories about patients who ate plant focused and sought out a dietitian to get more information about its potential impact on kidney functioning. After 9 weeks working with Vanessa, I got my results. I was amazed! All of my kidney functioning labs were much better!
