About Orange
For Fruits, Orange is a typical example. Potassium levels vary widely across fruits - apples and berries are low-potassium, kidney-friendly picks, while bananas and avocados are high and need portion control. The natural sugar in fruit is usually not the issue; potassium is.
Nutrient insight
The most striking number here is potassium (9%). For patients on potassium restriction, portion size and leaching are the two levers that matter for foods like Orange.
Phosphorus / Sodium / Potassium per 100 g
Practical tips
A handy approach - For high-potassium fruits, portion control is the main lever - for example, half a banana instead of a whole one.
