Nutritional therapy, phosphate control and renal protection.
Study Goal
The researchers aimed to review dietary strategies, including salt restriction, for managing chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression and complications.
Results Summary
The abstract suggests that limiting salt intake may help manage CKD progression and complications, but it notes that dietary protein restriction remains debated. The study highlights the need for more data on malnutrition risks before dialysis.

Dietary management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) focusses on limiting the intake of substances that might accumulate to toxic levels (such as potassium, phosphorus or salt) and, although still a matter of debate for some, restricting dietary protein to retard kidney damage. Recent evidence brings the opportunity to revisit the role of a healthy diet on disease progression and on some of the cardiometabolic complications of moderate/advanced CKD, such as inflammation or oxidative stress control. This review provides a brief overview of dietary strategies that delay CKD progression and CKD complications, and discusses currently limited data addressing the development of malnutrition and protein-energy wasting before dialysis initiation.
