Hello Dr, I’m Rehana. I live in Tanzania, but I’m originally from Hyderabad, India. I joined this group because I have mild proteinuria and want to learn more about keeping my kidneys healthy. One thing that would really help me feel better is getting more clarity and reliable guidance on how to control proteinuria and manage kidney-related diseases—especially since social media is full of misleading videos. I’m particularly interested in diet and health tips that are safe, practical, and focused on preventing proteinuria from getting worse. Thank you, Dr. Sabharwal, for starting this initiative.

Our recent session led to a lot of discussion around homeopathy, Ayurveda, supplements, traditional remedies, and evidence-based medicine. Many members shared experiences — some positive, some disappointing, and some still unsure what to believe. Thank you @Sonali Makani Kayal and @Alka Phutela for sharing your story. Rather than dismissing these conversations, I think it's important that we explore them openly and respectfully. So I'd like to hear from you: Have you ever tried homeopathy, Ayurveda, or another alternative therapy? Did you feel it helped? Do you still believe it works? Comment below and share your experience. Based on the interest from this discussion, we are considering inviting a homeopathic practitioner to join us for a future session so members can ask questions directly and hear their perspective. The recording of the caregiver session is now available to watch inside the community.

I’m very happy to introduce @Sonali Makani Kayal , a nutritionist and health coach joining the community 🙌 But what makes her journey special is not just her experience — it’s the reason behind it. Sonali’s mother suffered a brain stroke and later developed kidney failure. As a caregiver, she spent years learning about kidney disease, diet, lifestyle, and the emotional struggles families go through. Even after losing her mother in 2016, she continued this journey to help others facing similar challenges. That is the kind of person we want in this community: someone who understands not just the science, but also the human side of illness. Let’s make her feel welcome Comment below with: 👉 one health goal you’re currently working on 👉 or one diet confusion you want help with We’re building this community together 🙏
