Malnutrition in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Explained By Nephrologist
PACE Hospitals
Malnutrition is a prevalent complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), stemming from the body’s diminished ability to absorb and retain vital nutrients. Factors such as poor appetite, dietary restrictions, and metabolic changes frequently lead to nutrient deficiencies, adversely affecting energy levels, muscle strength, and overall health. Early identification and management of malnutrition are essential for enhancing the quality of life for CKD patients. Treatment strategies may involve personalized diets, nutritional supplements, and ongoing monitoring to ensure adequate nourishment for optimal health and functionality.
