In kidney transplant recipients (KTR), adherence to a Mediterranean diet is associated with improved health outcomes
.
However, poor eating habits such as excessive sodium intake are common in KTR, which indicates that it is difficult to maintain a healthy diet in daily life
Food literacy is considered to be a potential promoter of healthy eating, but the exact relationship between food literacy and dietary intake in KTR has not been investigated
This cross-sectional study uses a self-perceived food literacy (SPFL) questionnaire to measure food literacy
.
The dietary intake assessment and food frequency questionnaire were used to calculate the Mediterranean diet score

The relationship between average SPFL score and Mediterranean diet score and sodium intake in patients with KTR
The relationship between average SPFL score and Mediterranean diet score and sodium intake in patients with KTRIn summary, among kidney transplant patients, a higher level of food knowledge is associated with better adherence to a Mediterranean diet, including a favorable ratio of monounsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids, higher fruits, vegetables, legumes, and fish.
Consumption, lower consumption of dairy products and meat, and moderate consumption of alcohol

In summary, among kidney transplant patients, a higher level of food knowledge is associated with better adherence to the Mediterranean diet, including a favorable ratio of monounsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids, higher fruits, vegetables, legumes, and fish.
