About this food

How to think about Meat & Protein: Game meat is worth a closer look - Animal proteins tend to be higher in phosphorus, and animal phosphorus absorbs at 60-80% versus 30-50% for plants. Choosing low-phosphorus proteins such as egg whites or tofu, or controlling portions of red meat, is a common CKD approach.

Nutrient insight

Game meat's potassium is the top contributor (19% of its limit), so its potassium density deserves attention. In CKD stage 3-4 the kidneys clear potassium less well - control portions, and peeling, slicing or boiling can help.
