Roasted corn (bhutta) is moderate in potassium (270 mg/100g) — a half-cob is acceptable for early CKD. For stages 3-5, limit portions. The street version adds salt and lemon — request no salt. Sodium is naturally low, which is favorable.
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 cob (60g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
