In this episode, my guest is Kris Penniston, PhD. Kris is a Registered Dietician and a Senior Scientist in the Urology department of the University of Wisconsin. In addition to her position as a Senior Scientist, Kris is a Clinical Nutritionist with University of Wisconsin Hospital and Health Clinics and has provided medical nutrition therapy to patients with urologic diseases such as kidney stones, prostate cancer, and other urinary tract conditions for over 25 years.

We discuss the structure and function of the kidneys, disease pathology of the kidneys, nutritional considerations for kidney health, and the varying nuances of nutrition as it pertains to kidney health. Kris is absolutely brilliant and offers tremendously useful tips and tools for urological health, and it was an absolute pleasure to have yet another amazing conversation with her!
