Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure in Australia. We chat to Anne-Marie Desai, a clinical specialist dietitian in the area of kidney nutrition. We delve into protein and energy requirements, potassium and phosphate basics, the importance of glycaemic control and NEAP (Net Endogenous Acid Production). You’ll gain confidence in interpreting biochemistry and determining which of your diabetic clients would benefit from dietary modification to slow their progression to kidney failure.
