patients with renal failure are recommended high CHO and fat, low protein to reduce urea production

i think high cho diet, dont wanna give him a low vit d diet, he is already not making it, dont give him high protein diet, as the kidneys re failing and will make the situation more worse..

well dariush its not high cholesterol, its high carbohydrate, we would not like to give anything that would increase urea production, hence we avoid the high protein diet for sure...
