Protein restriction for diabetic kidney disease

CONCLUSIONS: Dietary protein restriction has uncertain effects on changes in kidney function over time. However, it may make little difference to the risk of death and kidney failure. Questions remain about protein intake levels and compliance with protein-restricted diets. There are limited data on HRQoL and adverse effects such as nutritional measures and hyperglycaemic events. Large-scale pragmatic RCTs with sufficient follow-up are required for different stages of CKD.PMID:36594428 | PMC:PMC9809923 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD014906.pub2
