At the end of the 8 weeks of the study, the protein with which is fed to animals with kidney disease, showed a decline of 20 percent in the blood pressure, compared with animals in the same conditions but with a normal diet.
“This is significant because the majority of patients CKD in reality die of cardiovascular complications arising from the high blood pressure, associated with renal dysfunction,” says Aluko.
