Inulin supplement to improve gut health in kidney disease
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial studies whether taking inulin—a dietary fiber—can improve gut bacteria and the gut barrier in people with end-stage kidney disease on hemodialysis. It may help reduce gut-related problems that can affect overall health in kidney disease.
