Chapter 2: Lifestyle interventions for lowering blood pressure in patients with CKD not receiving dialysis 2.1. Sodium intake Recommendation 2.1.1: We suggest targeting a sodium intake <2 g of sodium per day (or <90 mmol of sodium per day, or <5 g of sodium chloride per day) in patients with high BP and CKD (2C). Practice Point 2.1.1: Dietary sodium restriction is usually not appropriate for patients with sodium-wasting nephropathy. Practice Point 2.1.2: The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) type diet or use of salt substitutes that are rich in potassium may not be appropriate for patients with advanced CKD or those with hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism or other causes of impaired potassium excretion because of the potential for hyperkalemia. 2.2. Physical activity Recommendation 2.2.1: We suggest that patients with high BP and CKD be advised to undertake moderate- intensity physical activity for a cumulative duration of at least 150 minutes per week, or to a level compatible with their cardiovascular and physical tolerance (2C). Practice Point 2.2.1: Consider the cardiorespiratory tness status, physical limitations, cognitive function, and risk of falls when deciding on the implementation and intensity of physical activity interventions in individual patients. www.kidney-international.org summary of recommendation statements and practice points Practice Point 2.2.2: The form and intensity of physical activity should be considered and modi ed as necessary in in- dividual patients. There may still be important health bene ts even if physical activity falls below targets proposed for the general population.
