Glucose-based peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions are the predominantly used dialysate in PD patients. Glucose absorption has been shown to be associated with several unfavorable metabolic complications. Several studies have shown positive effects of exercise in end-stage renal disease patients. This paper provides an overview of glucose-associated metabolic complications, and proposed exercise regimens to counteract the caloric load associated with glucose absorption.
