Kidney-friendly Legumes & Nuts

54 foods rated

This list covers 54 foods relevant to a kidney-friendly diet. None of these rate as kidney-friendly at stage 3-4 limits. Every value comes from USDA FoodData Central and is checked against the CKD stage 3-4 daily limits.

What this tier means

In a CKD diet, legumes & nuts foods in this tier stay well below the daily limits for phosphorus, sodium and potassium. That makes them a comfortable part of everyday eating at stage 3-4 — the main thing to watch is portion size, because even low-mineral foods add up across a full day. Examples in this list include vermicelli, noodles and tofu yogurt. 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.
