DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) Diet and Risk of Subsequent Kidney Disease

This trial looked Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study participants with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (N = 14,882).  3,720 participants developed kidney disease during a median follow-up of 23 years. Participants with a DASH diet score in the lowest tertile were 16% more likely to develop kidney disease than those with the highest score tertile (HR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.07-1.26; P for trend < 0.001), independent of demographic characteristics, established kidney risk factors, and baseline kidney function. Of the individual components of the DASH diet score, high red and processed meat intake was adversely associated with kidney disease and high nuts, legumes, and low-fat dairy products intake was associated with reduced risk for kidney disease. : Multinational Assessment of Accuracy of Equations for Predicting Risk of Kidney Failure: A Meta-analysis.
