RESUMO
The incidence of metabolic syndrome (MS) in renal transplant patients is unacceptably high. Dietary intake may ameliorate or worsen the potential for the development of MS. The choice of immunosuppression also plays a role. Continued effort to find beneficial dietary combinations is essential while ongoing research evolves to find newer immunosuppressive medications with less adverse metabolic side effects.
