A Feasibility Study Exploring the Impact of a Low Advanced Glycation End-product (AGE) Diet on Skin Autofluorescence (SAF) Levels in Kidney Transplant Recipients
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Diet low in Advanced Glycation End-Products (AGE) for Renal Transplant. Completed, enrolled 38 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of the present study is to test the feasibility of conducting a larger randomised controlled trial (RCT) which will investigate whether a diet low in toxins called advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) decreases skin autofluorescence (SAF; AGE accumulation in the skin) levels and improves heart and circulatory (i.e. cardiovascular) health in persons with a kidney transplant.

Timeline
Interventions
The low AGE diet will primarily consist in reducing the amount of AGEs in foods by changing cooking methods. Participants will also be advice to choose foods low in AGEs; however, the advice will be tailored to participants' food preferences
