How much protein should be eaten in a day by a person weighing 242 lbs and has ckd..please advise. thanks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CKD and protein: There is not enough information in your question to answer it. Questions that need to be asked are: How old is the patient? Does the patient have diabetes? What class CKD does the patient have. Give more information and you will get a better answer to your question. In general, the worse the CKD is, the lower the amount of protein is to be ingested.
