Eating plant-based for kidney health: lessons on CKD, with Angeline Taylor RD

In a Nutshell: The Plant-Based Health Professionals UK Podcast

This week, in episode 10, we are talking about chronic kidney disease and diet, and so are excited to be joined by Angeline Taylor, a registered dietitian of over 15 years who has worked within the kidney specialty for most of those years.

Angeline is extremely passionate and committed to supporting those with kidney conditions to live a healthy lifestyle.

She holds the positions of Renal Dietitian in the NHS, Chair of the British Dietetic Association Kidney Specialist Group, and Renal Dietitian for Kidney Care UK's Kidney Kitchen. She also sits on the UK Kidney Association Sustainability Committee and advocates a plant-based approach to managing kidney disease.

Angeline sees patients with a variety of kidney conditions at various stages of the disease, from early to advanced stages of chronic kidney disease, dialysis, kidney transplantation, as well as acute illness on a busy NHS ward.

In collaboration with the Plant-Based Health Professionals UK, she has developed a range of factsheets on plant-based diets for people with kidney disease.
