Overview

Cross-sectional analysis shows greater plant protein intake improves low-protein diet adherence in CKD patients, suggesting benefits for metabolic health.

Key Points

  • Increased plant protein intake reduces dietary acid load and improves body composition in CKD patients.
  • A 10% increase in plant protein intake correlates with a 20% increase in low-protein diet adherence.
  • Patients with higher plant protein intake demonstrated lower body mass index and waist circumference.
  • Further research needed to explore long-term effects on lean mass and muscle strength.
