Yes, a plant-based diet can be beneficial for IgAN patients with CKD. Here's why:

Lower protein load on kidneys
Better blood pressure control
Reduced inflammation
Lower phosphorus levels
Rich in fiber and antioxidants
Just remember to:
- Watch potassium levels in some plant foods
- Ensure adequate protein intake
- Consult your nephrologist before major diet changes
- Consider B12 supplementation

Talk to your doctor about customizing a plant-based approach that's right for your specific kidney function and needs.
