Plant-Fed Kidneys

For the Practitioner—The Diet to Slow Progression of CKD

Only three percent of CKD patients see a dietitian earlier than one year before dialysis when nutrition intervention could make a bigger impact. The author, Jennifer Moore, MS, RDN, CSR, LDN, has had 25 years of practice using a low-protein, plant-based diet which can help patients delay CKD and possibly avoid dialysis.

Kidney research has started to show benefits and guidelines have started to change to support recommending more fruits and vegetables for people with chronic kidney disease, reducing associated diseases like type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension.
