About this download

Kidney diet food list with the real numbers: potassium, phosphorus and sodium in mg for 96 everyday foods, each from USDA FoodData Central. A one-page wall chart, eight food group pages, a label guide for phosphate additives and salt substitutes, and a fillable weekly meal planner, grocery list and lab log. Made to bring to your renal dietitian, not to replace them.

96 foods, 288 values: potassium, phosphorus and sodium in mg per household serving for every food, with the serving weight in grams and the USDA FDC ID of each food.

Works in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader, Chrome or Edge.

Quick setup: download, open, type, save.

The planner does not calculate: you type any totals yourself.

HOW THE BANDS WORK

A number is high when potassium is more than 200 mg, phosphorus is 250 mg or more (20% Daily Value), or sodium is 460 mg or more (20% Daily Value) in the serving shown.

  • Choose often (solid dot): no nutrient is high.
  • Limit (half dot): one nutrient is high.
  • Choose less often (ring): two or more are high, or the food is a main source of phosphate additives.

In this chart: 53 Choose often, 36 Limit, 7 Choose less often. Bands read by shape and word, so the chart prints clearly in black and white. Protein grams are shown without a band, because protein needs differ by stage and on dialysis.
