5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent
Having just been diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease I was anxious for any and all info I could find on the subject.This little book (I read it in just over an hour) was full of very useful information.It is written in language a non-medical person can understand.In fact, when I showed it to my nephrologist, he wrote down the pertinent info so he can order a bunch of copies to give to his new kidney patients.

5-0 out of 5 stars Must have for kidney disease
My husband has been diagnosed with kidney disease and after reading this book I can tell you it is stage 3 so I am not as frantic since I know that dialysis is not iminent. Before I read this book I was frantic that our whole life was changing and I did now know what was around the corner.I now understand the disease and know what more about what he can eat and do to stop this disease from getting worse.It is really hard to find real information that is not about dialysis and this book is simple to understand and so helpful I learned about medication that can make kidneys worse and medical tests that he should be careful with.I really liked the last chapater that gave us some recent research studies.Together with the cookbook by the same author I feel as if we can get through this10 Step Diet & Lifestyle Plan for Healthier Kidneys Avoid Dialysis

1-0 out of 5 stars BEWARE!!!
Not only was this book laid out/printed by people who apparently know nothing about publishing, but the author talks out of both sides of her mouth.For examp;e, for an audience that supposedly includes diabetics, she includes marshmallows in a breakfast menu and Rice Krispies Treats as a recommended dessert in a lunch menu.The last time I checked, marshmallows weren't terribly healthy for anyone, let alone people with kidney disease.The main restrictions in a "renal" diet are sodium, potassium and phosphorus, plus sugar if you are diabetic.She devotes a chapter apiece to the first three, but in each specific chapter she suggests foods that contain unacceptable amounts of the other two and/or sugar.All-in-all, I was able to get more logical and complete information and advice from a quick search on the internet.Please, don't waste your money or worsen your condition with this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars At last!
Finally, a book written for me and others who have kidney disease but are not on dialysis! The writing style is crisp and clear and chockful of information that will help me avoid dialysis. I especially like the recipes -- I've only tried three so far, but they were delicious. Most important, though,is how the author breaks down all the information I need to know so I can control my disease, understand exactly what my lab tests mean, and the effects of my medication. It's like having a best friend by my side who is an expert in kidney disease. Thank you!

5-0 out of 5 stars Very helpful book
A very helpful book that really helps one tounderstand the process of kidney disease and how to make changes in your diet and add healthy habbits that can help kidney disease.

Product Description

Small and bean shaped, the kidneys are sophisticated organs that filter waste from the blood. A number of diseases and disorders -- including diabetes and hypertension -- can harm the kidneys and cause them to fail.

Historian and nephrologist Steven J. Peitzman traces the medical history of kidney disease alongside the personal experience of illness. Drawing on diaries, letters, literary narratives, and scientific writings, Peitzman charts the triumphs of medical innovators like Richard Bright, Thomas Addis, and Belding Scribner as well as the stories of persons, famous and not, who have struggled with the disease.

Conditions once known as "Bright's Disease" are now recognized as complex disorders with names such as glomerulopathy and acute tubular necrosis. Treatments have evolved from abdominal tapping and dietetics to hemodialysis and transplantation. Medical advances have improved the well-being and prognosis of persons with failing kidneys. Yet such persons continue on an arduous journey of chronic illness. Peitzman travels with them, from diagnosis to treatment, and witnesses their remarkable ability to cope.

Joining the clinician's perspective with the historian's analysis, this fascinating chronicle offers insight into how diseases are defined, categorized, and understood and explains current concepts of how kidney disease behaves and how modern therapy works.

5-0 out of 5 stars A wonderfully interesting and informative book
I enjoy reading books on diseases, and have read several - on such subjects as smallpox, polio, bubonic plague, and others. Well, this book is slightly different, in that instead of focusing on a specific disease, it looks at diseases of the kidneys. As a genealogist, I have often read seen family histories that mention "dropsy" and death certificates that mention "Bright's Disease." But, what does that mean for the person so diagnosed?

Well, this book does a great job of explaining what it meant to have dropsy, or be diagnosed with Bright's Disease, and following the history through to the present, it discusses the origins and dialysis and kidney transplantation, and what they all meant. I found that the book did a wonderful job of really bringing home to me just what it meant to have kidney problems over the years, and how doctors and patients looked at themselves and their relationship.

I found this to be a wonderfully interesting and informative book. If you are interested in the history of medicine, then you really should read this book. If you are a genealogist or family historian, and want to understand what your ancestors faced years ago, then you really must get this book. I highly recommend it!

4-0 out of 5 stars The organ that gets no respect... until it is needed
This is the second book in the new series, Johns Hopkins Biographies of Diseases.The first, on malaria, is on my reading list.This one, Dropsy, Dialysis, Transplant: A Short History of Failing Kidneys, encourages me to read all the books in this series as they appear.

Physician Steven Peitzman takes the reader on a trip through the practical and technological stages of understanding and treating renal (kidney) disease, later to become kidney (renal) disease.From the diagnosis and treatment of "dropsy" (the illustration of a woman being treated for dropsy on page 5 is indicative of the suffering this condition involved), to the fumbling understanding of the role of the kidney in "Bright's Disease," to a clearer recognition of the structure and functions of healthy and diseased kidney tissue, Peitzman takes the reader on a journey though medical history.And it is a significant history, covering many firsts:diagnosis of organ-specific diseases, artificial organs, and transplantation.

I was particularly engaged with the sections on dialysis and transplantation.Dialysis was, and is, a profound invention.Humans became tied to machine, and an industry developed around this relationship.Today, a third of a million Americans visit dialysis centers or are home-treated three days a week and, for most of them, this will continue for the rest of their lives.Peitzman discusses the ultimate goal for these patients or clients: reintegration into work and family life.In many cases, this has been successful.However, the average age of dialysis patients is increasing, and for these dialysis clients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) at age 75, survival, not work, is the ultimate goal.Peitzman hints at the ethical concerns of investing huge sums of public monies for keeping very ill dialysis clients alive for a few months.

Transplantation is the most recent miracle.Peitzman writes, "...some recipients of a kidney transplant can see in the returning trickle of urine the very presence of a loving God" (p. 159).For those with ESRD, it must seem like a miracle.There are troubling issues with the increasing number of people donating kidneys to family members and friends (understandable), and total strangers (less understandable).Given the extraordinary increase in type 2 diabetes and obesity, primary reasons affecting the deterioration of kidneys, it seems people should hold on to their kidneys a little tighter.Time will tell whether these donors have made an appropriate choice.

The last chapter on prevention is also of great interest, with Peitzman suggesting that 10 million undiagnosed Americans could benefit from treatment to prevent future kidney disease.

All in all, this is an excellent summary of the history of kidney disease and treatment. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars don't waste your money
If you are a renal patient, don't get this book. You'll be dissapointed. It is really a workbook for patients to use with a dietician, to help the dietician map out their patients needs. It's not something to use on your own. It doesn't give any of the values you need to know in regards to potassium, phosphorus, sodium and protein levels etc., and the list of foods given is very limited.

If you are looking for diet guidelines and explainations in every day language, go to [...] the National Kidney Foundation site for much more helpful information. Also, the USDA nutritional database has a wealth of nutritional info in table format, ALL the stuff you need in a nutritional list. They even have a whole database in excel format you can download and manipulate for you own use, all for free.

I bought this book along with the dieticians renal guide in hopes of understanding more about what I need to do diet wise and got little help. This is best used when you see your dietician and for the cost, only if your dietician requests you to get it.

8/25/06 Recently I found software is available that will track all this for me. I purchased Diet Pro, which was easy to customize to my needs. It uses the same nutrition tables the dieticians use (USDA)and has made my life much easier! It will take food amounts by weight or volume and show you your daily nutrition intake. I can also put in recipes and get a nutrional breakdown per serving, and save the recipes in a file. I no longer spend hours calculating my daily nutrition. There are other programs out there too. Diet Pro was the least expensive. ... Read more

Product Description
Much of the progress in the understanding of the physiology of vitamin D and its role in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis has been made in recent years. Active vitamin D plays a central role in the regulation of calcium by increasing calcium and phosphorus absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, by stimulating osteoclast activity and stimulating calcium absorption in the distal tubule. Progressive kidney disease is associated with a decline in production and impairment of the action of vitamin D, which leads to an inadequate serum calcium control. This book clarifies the components in Vitamin D therapy and other health factors in regard to kidney disease. ... Read more

... if you or someone you know has issues with Polycystic Kidneys!The information is well indexed and will save you a lot of time in locating what the latest and greates theories, innovation, etc... are out there regarding this condition.And believe me, it is much more prevalent than folks realize.A lot of previously diagnosed deaths from strokes turn out to have PKD as a precursor/underlying cause!

This book is not a "cure" or "how to" book.It is a compilation of just about every source imaginable regarding the subject.The format also lends to a logical method of further research.

If you have a need to learn more about this condition and want to get deep into it, this is definitely the book for you. I highly recommend!!
