Higher risk Dairy & Eggs

107 foods rated

Here you'll find 107 foods relevant to a kidney-friendly diet. None of these rate as kidney-friendly at stage 3-4 limits. Ratings follow the site-wide rule: the highest of phosphorus, sodium or potassium as a percentage of the daily limit decides the tier.

What this tier means

Higher-risk dairy & eggs items are the ones to be most careful with: a single 100 g serving can cover a third or more of the daily allowance for one mineral. If they appear in the diet, keep portions tight and spread them across the week rather than daily. Examples in this list include butter, egg and cheese. For any of these foods, the food page shows exact phosphorus, sodium and potassium values per 100 g plus the share of the daily limit — use that before deciding on a portion.
