Summary

This study looks at whether a well-formulated ketogenic diet can slow the progression of polycystic kidney disease in 20 adults who are at high risk for kidney failure. Participants will follow the diet for one year and have regular MRIs, blood tests, and urine tests to track kidney function and other health markers. The goal is to see if the diet can help preserve kidney function and delay the need for dialysis or a transplant.
