Pomegranate is moderately high in potassium (236 mg/100g) and has some research suggesting it may reduce oxidative stress in CKD — but the potassium load limits its use in advanced stages. Enjoy in moderation (¼-½ fruit) for CKD stages 1-3; limit in stages 4-5 and dialysis. Pomegranate juice is more concentrated and should be avoided with high potassium.
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 fruit (141g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
