SDMA is a more reliable biomarker for kidney disease than creatinine,1–5 and it helped to define a thorough medical follow-up plan for Scarlet, even at early stages of kidney changes.
Early intervention and support of Scarlet’s kidney function with a kidney supportive diet helped lead to stabilized SDMA results in her follow-up rechecks. Evidence shows that SDMA can be relied upon for early detection of kidney disease and that dietary intervention prior to an elevation of creatinine can have health benefits for the kidneys.1,2
