| Abstract: | Having in mind the importance of Fe and Zn content in the diets of nondialyzed patients with chronic renal failure, diets
of 39 patients with ages varying from 18 to 79 years under a conservative treatment were analyzed by INAA. The 24-hour recall
method was used for sample collection. The content of proximate composition was also determined. The average daily dietary
intake was compared to the new recommended values by the Food and Nutrition Board. It was observed that the diets were deficient
for these elements and, therefore, there should be a nutritional follow-up to avoid possible negative effects.
