About this food

Cream substitute (Dairy & Eggs). Dairy products are high in phosphorus with high absorption and should be limited. With eggs, the white is a low-phosphorus protein while the yolk is much higher - treat them differently. This is the same lens used for similar items.

Nutrient insight

Potassium is the highest of the three at 33%. With reduced kidney function, blood potassium can rise, so spread high-potassium foods across the day rather than in one large serving.
