Mint per 100g is high in potassium (569 mg/100g), but garnish portions (2 tbsp, ~6g) add only ~34 mg — practically safe. Mint chutney is fine when made without excess salt. Mint tea is negligible. Avoid mint supplements or concentrated mint extracts in advanced CKD.
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.
2 tbsp (6g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
