Dialysis patients need 1.2 g protein/kg/day — MORE than healthy adults — but phosphorus must stay controlled. These protein sources give you the best protein-to-phosphorus ratio. Egg whites are the champion: nearly zero phosphorus.
Quality protein without the phosphorus load — essential for dialysis patients who need MORE protein.
