On dialysis, potassium, phosphorus, sodium, and fluid are all controlled at once — so more foods fall into the avoid category than at any other time. This list collects every food rated AVOID in our database, with the primary mineral reason for each.
Every food rated 'avoid' — the ones that are genuinely risky once potassium, phosphorus, sodium, and fluid are all restricted.
Values are per 100g (USDA FoodData Central / ICMR-NIN). Your actual serving may differ — always multiply by your portion. For a personal plan, check each food's guide for serving advice, leaching techniques, and safer alternatives. Your nephrologist and renal dietitian set YOUR individual limits.
