Orange and CKD: Potassium Data per 100 g

Short answer: Orange contains 181 mg of Potassium per 100 g, which is 9% of the daily limit. Against the 2,000 mg daily allowance, this is a Low contribution.

About Orange

Orange belongs to the Fruits category. 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

Orange's potassium is the top contributor (9% 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.

Phosphorus / Sodium / Potassium per 100 g

Practical tips

Practical tip: For high-potassium fruits, portion control is the main lever - for example, half a banana instead of a whole one.
