What this tier means

In a CKD diet, vegetables 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 tree fern, tree fern and butterbur. 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.
