PKD DIET

Candy, Lollipop, Chocolate

Avoid Candy, Lollipop, Chocolate

Candy, fudge, lollipops, chocolate, are all concentrated sweets and harmful to the kidneys and liver. Chocolate and fudge in addition to sugars contain caffeine. Caffeine in chocolate, cola, and coffee enhances the action of cAMP by inhibiting its breakdown, resulting in more circulating cAMP, which increases cyst growth creating more cysts, increasing organ size and increasing symptoms.

Avoid any of these sugary sweets as these will harm cystic organs. Do not eat them if they contain any of the following and more sweeteners: such as stevia, artificial sweeteners, alcohol sugars, or high fructose corn syrup.

Sugar Free Chewing Gum

Every molecule of the artificial sweetener NutraSweet, a.k.a. Equal, or Canderel, 951, or aspartame, turns into a molecule of methanol. Aspartame is 11% methanol by weight and has been the civilized world's most significant source of dietary methanol since the late 1980s. Consume no diet soda or any other diet food. Methanol was not present in the primitive diet of the Pleistocene and is almost unheard of in the diet of present- day foragers. Its presence is insignificant in most major human food staples such as milk, cheese, fish, meat, eggs, fresh vegetables, beans, and any of the many grains or grain products.

We are  sharing our experiences with PKD/PLD Diet, an adjunct diet envisioning it complementing a physician's prescribed medical therapy. Consider testing this with your doctor's prior knowledge, who can  adjust it according to your own uniqueness by adding it to your current  treatment.
