The Role of Smoking in Dietary and Potassium Balance Among Hemodialysis Patients
We read with interest the article by de Geus et al. titled “Nutritional Intake and Diet Quality in Hemodialysis Patients: Scope for Improvement”.1 The study presents a thorough assessment of nutrient intake patterns, adherence to dietary guidelines, and overall diet quality in a large multicenter cohort of Dutch hemodialysis patients.1 In particular, the analysis of the association between dietary potassium intake and serum potassium concentrations offers valuable insights into the ongoing debate surrounding dietary potassium restrictions in this population.
