The "mainstream" dietitian are all fans of lean meat, limiting whole grains and fruits, increasing protein, etc. Very reductionist thinking about potassium, etc. The blog http://www.kidneybuzz.com pushes this a lot, and parrots the American Kidney foundation diet. Even the Kidney foundation "vegetarian" diet recommendations aren't really. No understanding of wholism, health, etc. Dr McDougall does warn against to much protein, even plant protein. Found one confusing article https://bit.ly/2rCDZf8. Thank you.
