(P11-029-25) Efficacy of a Functional Food Supplement With Grape, Soy Protein, and Edamame as an Adjuvant Treatment in the Glycemic Control of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

Objectives: To prove the efficacy of a functional food supplement containing grape product, soy protein concentrate, organic edamame powder, and soy isoflavones in the function of the kidney in patients with CKD.

Methods: This is a randomized controlled trial with 34 patients. Group 1 (11 patients) had baseline tests and only one control test, and Group 2 (10 patients) had baseline tests and more than one control tests. After signing an informed consent, every patient received and consumed a proprietary blend of soy protein powder, edamame protein powder, grape protein powder for 180 days. The experimental group (13 patients) didn’t take the functional food supplement.

Results: The eGFR in the experimental group was statistically different (p=.002) between the baseline and the final eGRF, being this > 60 mL/min/1.73m2 in all cases, but the comparison between the changes in the eGFR in the experimental group and the control group was 54 vs. 11 mL/min/1.73/m3 (p < .00001), being the final eGFR > 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 in all patients in the experimental group. The difference between the serum creatinine levels at the baseline moment and the end of the trial was also significantly reduced (p=.004).

Conclusions: The functional food supplement tested helped satisfactorily in the clinical control of patients with CKD.
