A link means the body needs the nutrient for this, or that low intake is linked to it. It does not mean extra supplements help if your intake is already adequate; each link shows how strong the evidence is.
- PhosphorusDocumented risk
Damaged kidneys cannot remove phosphorus well. High levels can harm blood vessels, thin bones and cause itchy skin; diet limits and phosphate binders are used under a care team.
- LemongrassDocumented risk
A trial in healthy adults found lower kidney-filtering measures after 30 days of daily infusions; whether this matters in people with kidney disease was not tested, so caution is advised.
- Sea buckthornDocumented risk
In hemodialysis patients, blood phosphate and sodium rose and iron fell during an oil trial; ask the kidney team first.
