MNT for CKD Stage 2 & 3

MNT for CKD Stage 2 & 3

Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is a key component in the management of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in stages 3 and 4. The primary goal of MNT is to manage complications associated with CKD, such as high blood pressure, high phosphorus, and high potassium levels, by optimizing levels of nutrients in the diet.

At Hypothalamus, our renal specialist dietician’s team create personalized meal plans, based on your specific nutritional needs.

Encouraging protein restriction and limiting sodium, potassium, and phosphorus intake are key elements. Additional interventions might include prescribing vitamin and mineral supplements, making dietary modifications, and promoting whole, unprocessed foods. MNT ultimately aims to promote healthy kidney function, improve overall health, and enhance quality of life.
