About this food
How to think about Legumes & Nuts: Beans is worth a closer look - Legumes and nuts are typically high in both phosphorus and potassium, so they need care. Plant phosphorus absorbs at a lower rate (30-50%), so the real load is smaller than the numbers suggest.
Nutrient insight
Potassium at 22% is the main consideration. Concentrated forms such as juice and dried fruit absorb faster; whole foods are gentler.

Practical tips
A common practice is: Cook legumes and discard the water to lower some minerals; keep nuts to a small handful.
