Many studies support a connection
between urine protein and
cardiovascular disease.
NO CHANGE
• Fish protein and vegetable proteins may be better than animal proteins
- possibly for reasons other than protein content.
• There may be value in very low protein diets which may be due to
other factors.
• High protein intake likely should be avoided. But how high is high?
At this time,
it appears that no special recommendations
for protein inake in patients with diabetic
kidney disease should be made other than
avoiding high protein intake
(whatever that is).
