Several certified nutritionists highly recommend the Paleo diet. Is it the healthiest diet for CKD patients?

When we examine the Paleo diet, several significant points must be emphasized: The paleo diet is unsuitable for CKD patients as it burdens the kidneys and liver.

1 The life expectancy of ancient man was concise - ancient man did not die of chronic diseases.
2 Animal foods involved hunting and fishing and were a tough commodity. Our ancestors did not eat meat, poultry, and fish every day.
3 By definition, everything that ancient man needed for his livelihood was organic, unprocessed, and not industrialized.
4 In the 21st century, about 99% of animal food is processed and industrialized because the animals we feed on eat industrialized and processed food.
5 The Paleo diet dramatically reduces the consumption of fruits, grains, roots, and legumes even though they are very high-quality. Only because they were not available in the time of ancient man. (Whose life expectancy was utterly different than it is today)
6 In the Paleo diet today, about 60% -70% of calorie intake comes from animal proteins, mostly from processed and industrialized food, even if purchased fresh.
7 Increased consumption of protein and animal fats puts a heavy strain on the physiological and immune system, liver, kidneys, heart, and blood vessels, and they are unhealthy over time.

Conclusion and recommendations for a healthy diet:
Natural, organic, unprocessed, or industrialized nutrition is essential and highly recommended. However, a diet rich in animal protein is not recommended. It is hard to feel full without grains, legumes, and fruits; there is no reason to avoid them in reasonable amounts.
