This book empowers readers with clear guidance on understanding kidney failure, recognizing early symptoms, and managing treatment through diet and medical strategies, making it an essential resource for those at risk or living with kidney disease. ## Description A revolutionary program that can indefinitely postpone the need for dialysis If you've been diagnosed with kidney failure, this book could save your life. If you suffer from diabetes, hypertension, obesity, or any of a host of conditions that put you at risk for kidney disease, you owe it to yourself to read what is in this book. If you are among the 60,000 North Americans who go on dialysis each year, the information in this book could substantially improve your quality of life. In Coping with Kidney Disease, a leading expert tells you, in plain English, what you need to know to: * Understand kidney failure * Recognize early warning signs of kidney failure * Get a proper diagnosis * Talk with your doctors about it * Confidently evaluate treatment options * Take charge of your treatment * Delay dialysis or even avoid the need for it altogether The centerpiece of Coping with Kidney Disease is Dr. Walser's revolutionary 12-step program for avoiding dialysis. Based on treatments he has pioneered with his own patients at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, the program calls for a supplemented low-protein diet supported by treatments to control blood pressure and correct high cholesterol. So effective has this breakthrough strategy proven to be that in many patients it actually worked to slow or arrest the progression of kidney failure to the end stage. Knowledge is power. Coping with Kidney Disease empowers you with what you need to take charge of kidney disease. Review: Five Stars - It is really a good book for Kidney Patients.

So far my GFR has gone from 42 to 68 and now I'm at 61 so back in stage 2 after being in stage 3 for many years. I've defeated the odds and continue to learn from doctors and patients who care about this life threatening disease. This book is like an inside look into how to at least stall having to undergo dialysis on a regular basis. It promotes a low-protein diet like most do these days so compare notes with more current books about diet as the ones I'm reading now promote much more fruits and vegetables. This one has a handy chart of the phosphorus content of common foods and has a recipe for low-protein bread. Other highlights of this book include a chapter on salt and water problems, blood pressure regulation and how to treat acidosis. Some chapters have information on patients who have followed certain diets to avoid dialysis. Some of the more current books I can also recommend include: Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease by Dr. Yaw Ababio Boateng All of Lee Hull's books especially the Stopping Kidney Disease Food Guide Save Your Kidneys by Dr. Edgar Lerma The Complete Guide to Supplements for Kidney Health by Robert Galarowicz Staying Healthy with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease by Dori Schatell Consult with your doctor before taking kidney supplements. I am taking Snap Kidney Health Support although it does seem to have a little diuretic result so I don't take it if I have to leave the house the next day. With kidney disease knowledge is power and I've read as much as I can over the years to improve my GFR and get better instead of worse. I should technically be dead by now since years ago my GFR was at 42 and I was headed towards dialysis. By eating more fruits and vegetables and eating a fairly low protein diet I'm surviving. I cook the pumpkin chili from Lee Hull's food guide cookbook quite often and am trying other recipes specifically for kidney patients. Please consult with your nephrologist or doctor before taking advice in any of these books or recommendations. There are so many variables and things to consider. What works for one person might not work for another. I find the more I read, the longer I'm able to survive with chronic kidney disease. All these books I read give hope and help me understand my doctor's recommendations as well. ~The Rebecca Review ## Frequently Bought Together - Coping with Kidney Disease: A 12-Step Treatment Program to Help You Avoid Dialysis - Stopping Kidney Disease Food Guide: A recipe, nutrition and meal planning guide to treat the factors driving the progression of incurable kidney disease - Reverse Chronic Kidney Disease: How To Improve Kidney Function And Avoid Dialysis --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/349322942-wiley-coping-with-kidney-disease-a-12-step-treatment-program](https://www.desertcart.at/products/349322942-wiley-coping-with-kidney-disease-a-12-step-treatment-program) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-07-25*
