Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The purpose of this Special Issue, “Nutritional Epidemiology of Chronic Kidney Disease and Complications”, is to explore the most up-to-date available evidence on the role of nutrition in chronic kidney disease and complications.
The conventional diet for chronic kidney disease includes low protein, low salt, and potassium restriction. However, there has been a major reassessment in recent years. The perspective on minerals and vitamins is also changing dramatically, with an emphasis on the importance of the quality, as well as the quantity, of various nutrients, such as magnesium, zinc and iron, in addition to potassium.
This Special Issue will include original research works and literature reviews that further explore the changing views of diet and nutrition for chronic kidney disease and complications.
