NCT ID NCT06343727

Summary
This study tests whether a special egg white protein pudding can help people with kidney failure who are on dialysis. Participants will eat one pudding after each dialysis session, three times a week for 12 weeks. The researchers want to see if this is practical and if it improves nutrition and frailty compared to a standard supplement.
What this could mean

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a simple, affordable way to improve nutrition and reduce frailty in people with kidney failure on dialysis.
