Hello!
I'm Diana, The PKD Dietitian
As a Dietitian who specializes in kidney nutrition, it blows my mind how little we are educated about PKD.
I have spent years learning as much as I can about PKD (from the best experts in the field), reading every study I can get my hands on, researching metabolic pathways impacted by the PKD gene mutation (they are nutrient dependant!), and becoming a part of the PKD Community.
There is SO MUCH we know about PKD that isn't common knowledge for Dietitians, nor is it being shared as an opportunity to better support our clients/patients. To focus on PKD Health!
It is my mission to better educate and support Dietitians around PKD. To uplevel knowledge, MNT, and help create better access to up-to-date RDs for the PKD Community. More PKD experts = Less Dialysis.
