Summary

This study tests whether taking sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) can improve muscle energy and physical endurance in people with chronic kidney disease and metabolic acidosis. About 80 adults with moderate-to-severe kidney disease will take the supplement and undergo tests like exercise bikes, MRI scans, and questionnaires. The goal is to see if correcting acidosis can help patients feel less fatigued and move better.
