Summary

Is bicarbonate supplementation for metabolic acidosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD) a thing we do for no reason? We cover the pathophysiology and long-term consequences of metabolic acidosis, the history of bicarbonate use, alternative options for bicarbonate repletion including baking soda, lemon juice, fruits and veggies, whether the renal diet works, counseling patients with CKD, and common mistakes and pitfalls in managing metabolic acidosis in CKD. Our guest is Dr. Timothy Yau (@Maximal_Change, @WUNephrology, @AJKDOnline). It’s NephMadness 2024! Fill out your bracket today and check out the other podcasts participating in the NephMadness pod crawl!
