    I am grateful I came across this podcast. My doctors and several nutritionist have openly said “no one knows how to prevent kidney stones” but this podcast gives you the science of nutrition on kidney stones and helping you find out how to determine which kind you have. Thank you for putting this out there! Looking fwd to taking your course.

  • What a gift …

    Melanie, what a gift you are for people and their families with stones. Not only is it letting me get to the room of my own kidney issues, but also issues that my friends have that their doctors don’t even pay attention to despite indication. Lastly, as a recent graduate of the FMCA, you’re a wonderful resource I can refer to raise a client’s awareness and arm them with knowledge that helps them engage their overworked PCPs and be empowered.

  • Helpful and not overwhelming

    I love how she breaks all of this info into easy to hear info. KS prevention (imo) is overwhelming and I have a hard time keeping it all into play. With every show I listen to I feel like I have a better understanding of how all of this plays into my struggles. Thanks to this podcast I am learning more so that I can advocate for myself and ask more questions at my doctor’s appointments. Thanks!
