## TL;DR

This paper discusses managing protein energy wasting in a hemodialysis patient while controlling phosphorus through targeted nutrition.

## Contribution

A successful multimodal nutritional intervention for hemodialysis patients with protein energy wasting and phosphorus issues is presented.

## Key findings

- High-biological value protein intake improved nutritional status.
- Phosphorus levels were effectively controlled through dietary modification.
- Supplementation supported overall improvement in patient health.

## Abstract

We present a case of a 72‐year‐old male on maintenance Hemodialysis, with protein energy wasting and mild phosphoremia managed through targeted nutritional intervention that focused on high‐biological value protein intake while maintaining phosphorus control. A multimodality approach including dietary modification and supplementation led to improvement in overall nutritional status.
