Cardiorenal Protective Diet

This study will evaluate providing fruits and vegetables in a sustainable community care clinic setting, in addition to routine medical care, to individuals with CKD (Stage 2-4) on CKD and CVD risk, or cardio-renal risk factors. Further, metabolomics profiling will be used to study how change in the diet affects disease risk. Data from this study will be published in peer-reviewed journals, presented at national conferences, and will serve as pilot data to guide and strengthen applications for NIH funding.

Treatment and study plan

Fruits and Vegetables

Other

Fruits and Vegetable delivery, once a week for 12 weeks.

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes from baseline in fruit and vegetable intake at 6 weeks and 3 months.

    Time frame: Baseline; 6 weeks and 3 months

    Track changes in fruit and vegetable intake via ASA24 dietary recall food diary.

  2. Changes from baseline in systolic and diastolic blood pressure at 6 weeks and 3 months.

    Time frame: Baseline; 6 weeks and 3 months

    Measure changes in systolic/diastolic blood pressure (mmHg) to assess cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.

  3. Change from baseline of urine albumin-to-creatinine ration (ACR) at 6 weeks and 3 months.

    Time frame: Baseline; 6 weeks and 3 months

    Measure of renal damage.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Metabolomics will be used to profile how changes in diet effects disease risk.

    Time frame: Baseline and 6 Weeks

    Urine and plasma specimens will be collected for metabolomic analysis as novel biomarkers may appear in both sample types.
