Marc-Andre Vachon
HOME COOK & Kidney Patient
Marc-Andre is the official creator and cook of Kidney Healthy Recipes. He has been diagnosed with kidney disease since 2007 and has lived through the full spectrum of kidney function. He started out with 100% functioning kidneys and went on to dialysis.
Subsequently, he had the incredible chance to receive a kidney transplant for which he will always be grateful to all those who supported him, and especially his father who gave him a second life.
Food being one of the most critical aspects of kidney disease, he decided to create this website to provide a trusted source of recipes and nutrition articles for all kidney patients out there.
