“…[20] These issues are compounded by reports suggesting that a significant percentage of certain patient populations are not discussing use of dietary supplements with their physician. [21] In Australia, dietitians are in a key position to advise patients and the general public about the evidence and limitations of specific dietary supplements [22]. However, there is currently no published literature that has investigated: the usage of dietary supplements in dietetic practice; barriers and enablers for their use; and the level of research interest, confidence and general knowledge regarding dietary supplement-related issues.…”

It is increasingly recognized that the gut microbiota plays a role in the progression of chronic diseases and that diet may confer health benefits by altering the gut microbiota composition. This is of particular relevance for chronic kidney disease (CKD), as the gut is a source of uremic retention solutes, which accumulate as a result of impaired kidney function and can exert nephrotoxic and other harmful effects. Kidney dysfunction is also associated with changes in the composition of the gut microbiota and the gastrointestinal tract. Diet modulates the gut microbiota, and there is much interest in the use of prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics as dietary therapies in CKD, as well as dietary patterns that beneficially alter the microbiota. This review provides an overview of the gut microbiota and its measurement, its relevance in the context of CKD, and the current state of knowledge regarding dietary manipulation of the microbiota.
