Stage-specific rating derived from Water's potassium, phosphorus, and sodium per 100g against stage 2 renal diet budgets.
Water is safe for stage 2 patients: potassium 0 mg/100g, phosphorus 0 mg/100g, and sodium 0 mg/100g all sit within the lenient thresholds for this stage. Normal portions (Per fluid allowance) fit the daily 2,800 mg potassium budget comfortably.
Standard serving (Per fluid allowance) is fine. For very high-volume foods, keep to one serving per day.
Stage 2 (eGFR 60-89 with damage markers) still allows most foods in normal portions. Monitoring tightens and kidney-protective medications (SGLT2 inhibitors if albuminuric) enter the picture.
No fluid restriction yet — drink to thirst, avoid dehydration. Protein target: 0.8 g/kg/day.
