Historically, renal nutrition has been one of the most challenging areas of dietetics to master. The complexities of this area of study relate to the significant roles that the kidneys play in the human body, such as maintaining homeostasis and eliminating wastes, as well as the varied and continually evolving options for treating renal failure. Both the current best practices and indications for future practice based on emerging research are presented here. In an effort to be more consumer-friendly many practitioners no longer use the term renal in favor of the more straightforward kidney. The two terms are used interchangeably throughout this course. The human urinary system is comprised of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Although there are circumstances in which the latter three are discussed, this course will primarily focus on the functions, physiology, and treatments related to the function and dysfunction of the kidneys.
