Summary

Diabetic nephropathy is one of the principal causes of chronic renal failure. The disease prevailingly develops in men. The incidence of diabetic nephropathy doubled from 1991 to 2001. There are different traditional dietary guidelines for the different states of diabetic nephropathy, as well as pharmacotherapy options, and, last but not least, also modern ways of application of nutritional pharmacology. Organ specific nutritional substrates – amino acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids and other components of nutrition with pharmacological effects have become indispensable in modern care for diabetic patients.

Key words:
diabetic nephropathy – renal insufficiency – taurin deficit – organ specific nutrition substrate – branched amino acids – polyunsaturated fatty acids – carnitine
