Inflammation, hormonal disturbances, and restricted diets may cause malnutrition in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially those undergoing dialysis. Improving the nutritional status of these patients through dietary and non-dietary interventions could be a vital step toward decreasing the rates of complication and death. There are broad disagreements on the use of vitamins supplementation in kidney disease and evidence-based recommendations are sparse. Thus, the purpose of this review study was to collect the existing scientific evidences regarding nutritional supplementation in patients with CKD.
