KIDNEY NUTRITION 101
Leverage the power of nutrition to preserve your kidney function
You can finally be in control of your kidney health.
Â
You don’t have to sit back and watch your eGFR slowly decline.
Nutrition is one of the most powerful tools you have to protect your kidneys and take control of your health.
All you need is the right mindset, a proven roadmap, and expert guidance to have long lasting success.Â
Let me guess...
You’ve fallen down the kidney diet Google rabbit hole, and somehow, you’re more overwhelmed now than when you started. You second-guess every bite you take, wondering if it’s helping or harming your kidneys. Grocery shopping and cooking feel like a chore because you’re still unclear about what you can eat. And that one-page handout your doctor gave you? It hasn’t helped lower your potassium—and you’re tired of cutting out your favorite foods without knowing if it’s even making a difference.
Â
Sound familiar?
You’re not alone. Most people with CKD are doing their best with scattered, outdated, conflicting nutrition advice.
The good news? You don’t have to figure this out on your own.Â
That's exactly why I created

I am MUCH more thoughtful about my eating habits, but more than that, I am able to confidently make good choices for my meals and feel like I am to plan my meals MUCH more effectively. I absolutely recommend others to take this course! It provides so much information, but in manageable chunks that can be understood without causing overload. It is a GREAT course and provides wonderful information!Â

Since working with Summer my eGFR increased from 54.5 to 69.3 and my potassium improved from 5.9 to 4.1. My doctor now says I have improved my CKD to stage 2! Forever grateful for your work.

You need more than just a 'check in' every 3 months.

A 15-minute doctor’s visit to review your medication list isn’t a proactive plan for preserving your kidney health. It’s a reactive system that waits for things to get worse before taking action.
But you deserve more than that.
You deserve a clear, evidence-based roadmap to the diet and lifestyle changes that can actually support and improve your kidney function before it’s too late.
It’s time to take the first step toward investing in your health with an approach that’s practical, affordable, and rooted in real science.Â
