About this food
About Chicken: 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. As a Legumes & Nuts item, its role in a kidney diet depends mainly on mineral content.
Nutrient insight
Chicken's sodium is 35% of the limit, the highest of the three. Herbs and lemon are practical salt substitutes.
