About this food
How to think about Legumes & Nuts: Nuts 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
The most striking number here is potassium (35%). For patients on potassium restriction, portion size and leaching are the two levers that matter for foods like Nuts.
