Cook your way to kidney health with plant-based medicine

November 6, 2023
Dietitians Marie Goyet (L) and Jean Gibson (R) helped launch a plant-based culinary website to support people in managing chronic kidney disease.

People living with chronic kidney disease now have a new, easy-to-use online resource that teaches how to use your kitchen to manage and slow the progression of kidney disease.

The Plant-Based Medicine for Chronic Kidney Disease is a free website developed by two dietitians at Kelowna General Hospital (KGH).
