Weight training.: The vast majority of evidence does not support the need for a low-protein diet in ADPKD, as long as you have not reached the point of having renal insufficiency. I would recommend a diet with a normal amount of protein, but a good weight training regimen to help build muscle. Extra protein is not necessary for muscle gain.
