Abstract
Limiting the amount of phosphorus in the diet is the first line for management of hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease, and it is therefore important that dietitians have access to accurate data on the phosphorus content of foods. However, food composition datasets have several limitations for use. In this article, Julie Hannah and colleagues describe the limitations of food composition data, and call for further research into this area
