Box plots of plasma total CO2 (TCO2) (left) and 8-hour urine net acid excretion (8h NAE) (right) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 individuals at baseline and 3-year follow-up. Usual Care, individuals without additional dietary intervention; HCO3, individuals given oral NaHCO3 at 0.3meq/kg lean bw/day; F+V=subjects given fruits and vegetables in amounts designed to reduce dietary potential renal acid load by half. *P<0.05 vs. respective baseline;+P<0.05 vs. respective Usual Care.
