Abstract

Nutrition throughout kidney disease is linked to a large number of restrictions. Currently, nutritional recommendations for patients with kidney disease are changing, presenting elements in common with the general population. It is recommended to reduce the consumption of ultra-processed foods, as they are enriched in salt, fats and additives, many of which are phosphorus and potassium additives; these additives have a bioavailability of 100%, compared to dietary phosphorus and potassium found in foods of natural origin, with an absorption of between 50-80%, depending on the type of food.
Dietary potassium management is one of the major problems in the renal population. It is now being shown that increased blood potassium levels have more causative agents than just dietary potassium intake, such as prolonged fasting, constipation, poor metabolic control of glucose and the use of certain drugs, among other factors.
These data show that before resorting to dietary restriction of dietary potassium sources, new approaches should be considered.
