- Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) with high-phenolic EVOO slows kidney function decline in nondialysis CKD.
- Meta-analysis shows modest improvement in eGFR (2.44 mL/min/1.73 m²) with MedDiet, especially in mild-to-moderate CKD.
- High-phenolic EVOO linked to significant reduction in C-reactive protein (CRP), indicating anti-inflammatory effects.
- MedDiet improves body composition and reduces blood urea nitrogen without affecting serum potassium or phosphorus.
- No significant effects observed on blood pressure or lipid profiles.
- Benefits attributed to overall dietary pattern and specific anti-inflammatory effects of high-phenolic EVOO.
