The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 37million adults in the US have been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, which is also estimated to have affected about 10 percent of the world's population with millions of people at increased risk without even knowing it. If you have been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD), then you are not alone, nor do you have to go through the process all by yourself. Although kidney disease diagnosis can be overwhelming at first, nonetheless, with proper dietary choices and guidelines, you can manage the disease and slow its progression without having to undergo dialysis treatment or transplant.
