Low phosphorus diet

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

It is important that you follow a low phosphorus diet. I recommend that you are on a phosphorus reducing agent like sevelamer.

Some of the low phosphorus food items are
1. Fig bar
2. Cream cheese
3. Egg white
4. Light white bread
5.Almond milk
6.Rice noodles
7. Egg noodles

Please try to avoid chocolates as it is high in phosphorus

I hope I was of help, please get back to me for any further queries
