Highlights of this edition include:A comprehensive look at nutrition assessment and updated nutrition recommendations for each stage of chronic kidney disease. Guidelines for diagnosing malnutrition and how this might impact the patient with chronic kidney disease at any stage. Updated content on caring for various patient populations with kidney disease or with concurrent conditions, including pediatrics, pregnancy, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, transplant, mineral and bone disorders, and nutrition support. New chapters address nutrition management of kidney stones, oral nutrition supplements in kidney disease, guidelines for patients following vegetarian, vegan or plant-based diets, and the connection between kidney disease and the gut. Expanded information on implications and interactions associated with dietary supplement use in patients with kidney disease. Professional and patient resources for kidney disease. This professional reference is written and reviewed by renal nutrition experts from the Renal Practice Group and the Council on Renal Nutrition of the National Kidney Foundation.
