Vegetarian diets for treating nephrotic syndrome

J Dwyer. Nutr Rev. 1993 Feb.

Abstract

Vegetarian diets based on soy-protein appeared to be effective in treating the hyperlipidemia of nephrotic syndrome. Whether there is a unique effect of soy or whether all very low-fat, low-saturated-fat, low-cholesterol, and low-protein diets have similar effects remains unknown.
