Very low‐protein diet to postpone renal failure: Pathophysiology and clinical applications in chronic kidney disease

Abstract: The uremic syndrome is a metabolic disorder characterized by the impairment of renal handling of several solutes, the resulting accumulation of toxic products and the activation of some adaptive but detrimental mechanisms which all together contribute to the progression of renal damage. In moderate to advanced renal failure, the dietary manipulation of nutrients improves metabolic abnormalities and may contribute to delay the time of dialysis initiation. This commentary focuses on the physiopathological ration… Show more

“…The principal solutes retained in CKD are the protein related products that cause hyper-azotemia, acidemia, and hyperphosphatemia; phosphate and sodium also play a relevant role in renal adaptation, causing hyperparathyroidism and extracellular volume expansion, respectively [4]. Generally, nutritional management of CKD requires balancing the intake of energy, protein, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and fluid with biochemical markers and weight change [5].…”

“…Inversely, LPD supplemented with ketoacids was more effective than LPD alone in protecting kidney function from oxidative stress injury in remnant kidney tissue [20]. As a consequence, VLPD with KA/EAA has been supposed to protect against the progression of CKD and preserve residual renal function, slowing the GFR decline toward end-stage renal disease [21]. Strategies to avoid protein malnutrition include supplementing decreased protein intake with essential amino acids for CKD populations.…”

“…Protein deficiency or excessive intake can cause metabolic disorders and affect physical health [71]. Excessive intake of plant protein increases kidney load, and excess animal protein intake increases the risk of osteoporosis [72,73]. Conversely, protein deficiency causes a series of diseases such as reduced resistance, slow growth, weight loss, apathy, irritability, anemia, thinness, and edema.…”
