What you'll learn

Chronic kidney disease is associated with complicated nutrition requirements. These patients are at risk of decreased food and fluid intake. They might be under stress due to overly controlled template diets. Hence, they might be left with a limited amount of food that they can eat. Different patients with CKD might have different nutrition needs and issues depending on the stage of disease progression. read more »»
