There is a difference between what is healthy for your kidneys and what they can process without overloading when you have kidney disease.

Also new findings give more insight what the best approach is. Low phosphorus with medium protein (contains phosphate but muscle function) could be a better approach in early stages of kidney disease for example. With further stages that could change.

You can also take 'phosphate binders'

Yeah I think it actually makes total sense that the things that maybe are good for your kidney can become too much if your kidney isn’t working properly anymore.
