Stage-specific rating derived from Dandelion Greens's potassium, phosphorus, and sodium per 100g against stage 2 renal diet budgets.
Dandelion Greens needs caution at stage 2: its potassium (397 mg/100g), phosphorus (66 mg/100g), or sodium (76 mg/100g) approaches the stage-specific thresholds. Limit portions to half the standard serving and count it carefully against your daily 2,800 mg potassium allowance.
Limit to half a standard serving (1/2 cup cooked (~75g) → half) and avoid combining with other moderate-potassium foods in the same meal.
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.
