This study found that unhealthy dietary patterns are associated with the development and worsening of chronic kidney disease, while healthy eating patterns have a protective effect on the kidneys.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious public health problem and its prevalence is growing in many countries, often related to issues resulting from the lifestyle in growing economies and the population's life expectancy. Nutritional therapy is a beneficial but still neglected strategy for preventing CKD and delaying disease progression. The aim of this study was to assess the association of dietary patterns with CKD development and progression. Observational studies conducted in adult humans and the correlation between the adopted dietary pattern and prevalent and incident cases of CKD were assessed. A significant association was observed between unhealthy dietary patterns and an increased risk of developing or worsening CKD, as well as an adverse effect. Whereas healthy eating patterns characterized by the consumption of fruit, vegetables and dietary fibre showed nephroprotective outcomes.
