Lactitol Reduces Renal Dysfunction and a Senescence Marker in Aged Mice with Adenine-Induced CKD.

Key takeaways

This study was done in mice, not people. It tested a food compound called lactitol in older mice with kidney disease. The mice that took lactitol had less kidney scarring and better function. This shows a possible benefit, but it has not been tested in humans yet.
