Nutrition plays a major role in the treatment and preventing the progression of renal disease. Malnutrition is the determining factor for morbidity and mortality in dialysis patients. Patients with renal disease tend to have reduced food intake, due to loss of appetite, depression, but also as a consequence of chronic inflammation or lack of antioxidant mechanisms. Poor nutritional status of these patients must be recognized early and treated. It is important to ensure adequate intake of energy, protein and calcium, and at the same time to reduce intake of potassium, sodium, phosphate and fluids. A supplementation of vitamins and micronutrients may be appropriate. The nutritional status should be checked regularly. The research part demonstrates the dependence of laboratory values on nutritional status and a positive effect of education on patients' compliance with the recommended diet.
