Cover Story: Plant-dominant low-protein diet or "PLADO" is a patient-centered diet plan of 0.6–0.8 g/kg/day of protein intake composed of >50% plant-based sources, administered by dietitians trained in providing nutrition care to patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease. The composition of PLADO and its meal plans are designed and adjusted based on individualized needs and according to the principles of Precision Nutrition. The goal of PLADO is to slow kidney disease progression, to avoid or delay dialysis therapy initiation, and to ensure cardiovascular health and longevity. The ideal type of PLADO is a heart-healthy, safe, flexible, and feasible diet that could be the centerpiece of the conservative and preservative management of kideny disease. View this paper.
