About this food
How to think about Dairy & Eggs: Egg is worth a closer look - 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.
Nutrient insight
Egg's phosphorus is 19% of the limit, from Animal source (higher absorption). On a phosphorus-restricted diet, limit how often and how much you eat it.
