Abstract in brief

  • A review of 21 prospective studies found that healthy dietary patterns, especially plant-based foods, coffee, and dairy, may help protect against chronic kidney disease (CKD), while unhealthy foods like processed meat and sugary drinks may increase risks.
  • The evidence suggests that diet plays a significant role in kidney health, with some foods potentially promoting kidney function loss, but for many other foods, the impact remains unclear or neutral due to limited research.
  • More studies are needed to better understand how specific foods and beverages influence kidney function, but current findings support the promotion of healthy eating patterns to reduce CKD risk.]
