Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Chronic kidney disease one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Diet has always played a fundamental role in the conservative management of chronic kidney disease, with the aim of optimizing the impact of metabolic complications and slowing down the progression of the disease.

The nutritional approach is currently highly personalized, particularly in relation to the stage of chronic kidney disease and the type of natural or artificial replacement therapy. Dietary approaches aimed at treating specific pathological conditions of kidney damage are also currently being studied with the aim of integrating the therapies available for some kidney diseases via precise nutritional schemes.

Moreover, recently the presence of new therapeutic possibilities has changed the nutritional approach to patients, with the aim of intervening more in the fields of cardio and nephro-protection, which are the basis of patient survival.

This Special Issue is committed to publishing original research articles on kidney disease nutrition-related intervention, diagnosis and prevention. We aim to provide a comprehensive update on nutrition scientific evidence as a crucial factor in preventing, promoting and treating kidney diseases. Review articles on these topics are welcome.
