Specialized Plant-Powered Shakes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Renal Support 1.8 is a Plant-Based Shake for People on Dialysis

— February 16, 2022 — Lifestyle
Kate Farms just launched a first-of-its-kind plant-based, organic nutrition shake created for those with diabetes, and now the brand is following up with Renal Support 1.8—the only plant-based, organic shake designed to help meet the specialized nutrition needs of people on dialysis.

With the pandemic interrupting nutritional care for those receiving dialysis, many were left at a risk for malnutrition. Kate Farms saw the opportunity to provide support by delivering a nutrition solution with a unique blend of plant-based protein, prebiotic fiber and carbohydrates. Based on recommended amounts of sodium, potassium and phosphorus, the specialized plant-based shake is suitable for fluid restricted diets.

Cynthia Ambres, MD, Kate Farms' Chief Medical Officer says, "When it comes to kidney nutrition care, the new Renal Support 1.8 is a delicious option, made for easy digestion and thoughtfully prepared from quality ingredients."
