About this listen

Bone mineral disorder is one of the most challenging complications of chronic kidney disease, impacting bone strength, mineral balance, and even cardiovascular health. Nutrition plays a critical role in managing this condition — but the complexity of treatment often requires a skilled, multidisciplinary approach.

In this episode, host Christina Rollins talks with Sarah Gilbert, MS, RD, LD, a renal nutrition expert and Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of New England, about the dietitian’s role in managing bone mineral disorder in CKD.

They explore:
🧠 How bone mineral disorder develops and why it matters
🥛 The interplay of phosphorus, calcium, and vitamin D in patient outcomes
💊 Strategies for phosphorus control and binder adherence
🍗 Balancing protein needs with mineral management
❤️ Practical education approaches for patients with multiple comorbidities

This conversation highlights how nutrition professionals can make a meaningful difference in patient outcomes through evidence-based, individualized care.
