Also known as: लीची
Lychee is low in potassium (171 mg/100g) and sodium — a kidney-friendly summer fruit for most CKD stages. Its natural sugar content means diabetics should moderate portions. Lychees are safe for dialysis patients in reasonable amounts (count fluid minimally — they're ~82% water).
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.
5 fruits (50g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
