Dry quinoa is very high in potassium (563 mg/100g) and phosphorus (457 mg/100g). Even cooked (172 mg/100g K, 152 mg/100g P), portions must be small for stages 3-5. Dry measurements look worse, but portion discipline matters either way.
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.
1/4 cup dry (45g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
