Can Mediterranean Diet Have a Positive Impact on Kidney Health? A Pending Answer to a Long-Time Question
Dietary studies conducted in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients were focused on the quantities of single nutrients, however it is possible that the excessive attention put on the restriction of proteins, sodium, potassium and phosphorus may compromise the overall quality of the diet in terms of m...

description | Dietary studies conducted in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients were focused on the quantities of single nutrients, however it is possible that the excessive attention put on the restriction of proteins, sodium, potassium and phosphorus may compromise the overall quality of the diet in terms of micronutrients and palatability. Instead, concentrating on the nutritional quality healthy dietary patterns, may provide a better approach to improve nutritional prescriptions in CKD patients. All these dietary regimens share common features as reduced content of red meat, salt and saturated fatty acids, and higher fiber content, but may differ in terms of single nutrients consumption. In particular, Mediterranean Diet (Med Diet) has been associated with reduced incidence of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and obesity, all conditions that are also strictly related to CKD. Given its low content of animal proteins and high contents of fiber it is possible that Med Diet may exert also positive effects on CKD as well as on its metabolic complications. In this review we summarize the role of Med Diet in primary prevention of CKD and on its progression. |
