This study was done in mice, and most others were in heathy individuals not with chronic or late stage kidney disease, but does sound promising. Ketogenic diet is with adequate protein, high fat, not high protein as I thought, but see some nephrologists are skeptical, and will ask mine on my next visit, but I already inquired about any diet to improve kidney function, and said nothing will help the damage already done, and just continue what I'm doing, and I'm fine with that. Mt Sinai where this study was done is one of my cancer/ENT hospital's, but I go elsewhere for the kidneys.
