The use of organ specific substrates in kidney disease in a diabetic patient

Abstract

There are different traditional dietary guidelines for the different states of diabetic nephropathy, as well as pharmacoterapy options, and, last but not least, also modern ways of application of nutritional pharmacology. Organ specific nutritional substrates - amino acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids and other components of nutrition with pharmacological effects have become indispensable in modern care for diabetic patients.
