What are you eating right now?

[Legs4Arms]

Over 100 and 115/68

On hard to medium exertion days I add pink and other salts to my potassium and magnesium citrate water. Both Na and Cl ion are essential. I don’t eat enough junk food to get the NaCl.

At 68 you have the GFR of a 25yr old. Very Impressive.
The BP indicates you're looser than creamed corn as well.
Good work

Slow reception here east of Wenatchee

I can access my old med records I’m thinking I was in the 90s before as I recall

what is GFR?

 

[Pablo]

what is GFR?

Kidney function roughly

Glomelular Filtration Rate

How much creatinine you are making with age and gender and race factors. It makes some sense but there are other factors

ok then
My eGFR a wk ago was 75 and 75 last Feb. I read where this is the average for a 70 yr old, I'm 69. LabCorp reference range says >59.
My creatinine last wk was 1.09 and 1.08 last Feb. Reference range is .76 to 1.27.

I always wondered if tested 2-3 days after a brutal workout how much it would change

Yeah if you want to get an accurate reading it's best not to exercise the day of.

When I've got kidney and liver tests on deck I take the week prior as active rest. No heavy weights, pound the water, 4 km walks, clean meals.

There was about a 10yr span where I forced my kidneys to process a lot of protein byproduct waste. Bodybuilding diets are not kind to the body, there's nothing healthy about it actually.

Kidney health is at the very top of the list for me these days.

 

[Legs4Arms]

I think my last GFR test was an 89.
I'm 14yrs younger than you so 100 is pretty incredible.
I wouldn't change a thing in whatever you're doing %

It should be for all

Hydration clean foods low in oxalates, lots of citrates. Yeah I pee more than my dogs!

Too much protein without fats is a problem as well. Forces the protein path too hard so with lean meat EVOO

In the 90's between April and August it was Cod/Halibut/Snapper-ground beef/chicken breast, egg whites, and isolate shakes.

An ounce or two of MCT oil at bedtime, then an hour of cardio on black coffee the next morning.Very effective for getting peeled, didn't always feel top flight though.

Just eating two bowls of greens with good dressing would have helped in my unprofessional opinion

 

[Legs4Arms]

For sure and I did/do.
