A lot of people with kidney disease end up taking multiple supplements — often without knowing what is actually needed.
What supplements are you currently taking?
Comment below — it will help others learn what’s working (and what’s not).
Here’s a simple, practical way to think about it:
☀️ Vitamin D
Very commonly low in CKD
Helps with bone health, immunity, and overall wellbeing→ Best taken after checking levels
🩸 Iron
Only if you are deficient (low ferritin / Hb)Can improve fatigue and anemia→ Don’t take blindly — always check first
😴 Magnesium
Can help with muscle cramps and sleep in some people→ Use cautiously if kidney function is reduced (eGFR < 20)
