Also known as: चेरी
Cherries are moderate in potassium (222 mg/100g). In moderation (½ cup) they're fine for early CKD; limit in advanced stages. Tart cherry juice is concentrated potassium and sugar — avoid in advanced CKD. No strong evidence supports cherries as a gout or kidney treatment, contrary to some claims.
Values are approximate, based on USDA FoodData Central and ICMR-NIN Indian Food Composition Tables. Actual values vary by variety, ripeness, serving size, and cooking method. The database rating is a general reference, not an individualized diet recommendation.
1/2 cup (77g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
