Fuchsia Goldsmith - Nutrition for Kidney Health
In this episode, we talk about all things kidney health with Fuchsia Goldsmith, a dietitian based in Auckland. Fuchsia is the founder of Feed Nutrition and serves as Doctors For Nutrition’s lead dietitian for New Zealand’s North Island.
Also working as a renal dietitian, Fuchsia is an expert on diet and kidney health. Kidney disease is a leading cause of premature death in developed countries and an estimated 1 in 10 Australian and New Zealand adults have biomedical signs of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), so this is an important episode for everyone!
In this episode we discuss:
• Fuchsia’s upbringing and motivations for adopting a plant-based diet
• Her research in the growing area of epigenetics - and the marketing hype vs real-world application in this space currently
• The services offered through Feed Nutrition
• Contributing factors to CKD and importance of prevention and proper monitoring
• Key nutrition tips for kidney health, including the vital difference between plant and animal proteins
• The changing advice regarding potassium and phosphate for those with established CKD (it’s good news for plant-eaters!)
• Acute kidney injuries and endurance sports
• Fuchsia’s involvement in the upcoming public lecture series with Evidence Based Eating
• Fuchsia's Pomegranate Summer Salad recipe submission to the Doctors for Nutrition Recipe Collection.
