  • Key components of dietary-nutritional therapy involve managing protein, caloric, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus intake.
  • Patient adherence to dietary guidelines is critical for the effectiveness and safety of dietary-nutritional therapy.
  • An interdisciplinary approach involving nephrologists, dietitians, and patients may enhance adherence and outcomes.
