Welcome to Season 4 of the Essence of Health Tea Time podcast!
It is estimated that up to 70% of the US food supply is ultraprocessed, and nearly 55% of the average American's diet consists of these foods, the highest rate in the entire world. A landmark new study found that for every 10% increase in ultraprocessed food calories, your risk of dying prematurely rises by nearly 3%.
But beyond chronic metabolic disease, there is a silent organ taking the hit; your kidneys. Chronic kidney disease affects approximately 37 million Americans, many don't even know they have it. The connection between what we eat and how well our kidneys function is often under-discussed.
On today's episode of the Essence of Health Tea Time Podcast, Dr. Shayla Toombs-Withers is joined by guest physician Dr. Robin Rose, together they will be spilling "๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ง ๐๐จ๐ฐ ๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐๐ ๐ ๐จ๐จ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐จ๐ฒ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐๐ง๐๐ฒ๐ฌ," stemming from an article from CNN titled โEating more ultraprocessed food ups the risk of premature death, study finds.โ

She coined the term โRenologyโ, the art and clinical science of kidney success and is the author of โRenology Peptides: Kidney Success with Bioregulator Peptides.โ
