About this food

About Salad dressing: Sodium varies hugely across condiments and oils - soy sauce and sauces are sodium-dense while most plant oils are nearly sodium-free. Swapping salty sauces for oils is a practical sodium trick. As a Condiments & Oils item, its role in a kidney diet depends mainly on mineral content.

Nutrient insight

Potassium at 4% is the main consideration. Concentrated forms such as juice and dried fruit absorb faster; whole foods are gentler.
