We evaluated whether adding a kidney-specific, high-energy low-protein formula containing free amino acids, dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals to dietitian-led counseling improved nutritional status in nondialysis CKD stages 3-5.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this 6-month, single-center, open-label, largely randomized trial analyzed according to the as-treated principle, all participants received counseling toward protein intake of 0.6-0.8 g/kg ideal body weight/day and energy intake of 25-35 kcal/kg ideal body weight/day. The intervention group (n = 48) received 2 daily sachets of the study formula; controls (n = 48) received counseling alone. The primary outcome was improvement in subjective global assessment (SGA) score at 6 months, defined as an increase of at least 1 point.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The intervention group had a higher proportion of participants with SGA improvement than controls (47.9% vs. 25.0%; P = .020; odds ratio, 2.76; 95% confidence interval, 1.16-6.55). Excluding within-category transitions from SGA score 6 to 7 yielded a similar result (44.4% vs. 25.0%; P = .049).
