Modern pharmacological therapies in nephrology: Progress, promises, and the forgotten role of diet.

Article No results yet Peer reviewed

Key takeaways

This is an opinion and review article, not a study, so there are no new results. The authors argue that new drugs for obesity, type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease work well, but that diet is being forgotten alongside them. Their point is that food and daily habits should be treated as part of the treatment, not as an afterthought. Nothing here was tested on patients.
