Small Changes I Made to My Diet at Home

Over the years, I have become much more careful about what I eat at home. After dealing with kidney problems and eventually going through dialysis and a kidney transplant, I learned that food is not just about taste. It directly affects your health and quality of life.

 

One small change I made was reducing sugar and using Lakanto, a monk fruit–based sweetener, instead of regular sugar. I use it for coffee and other foods at home. It helps me enjoy some sweetness without consuming as much sugar.

 

I am not on a perfect diet, but I try to make better choices little by little. In the long run, small daily habits matter more than extreme short-term dieting.
