How to consume it without harming your kidneys

Enjoy avocado wisely:

Limit it to half a fruit a day (70 g) if you have healthy kidneys, or less with CKD.
Drink enough water to dilute oxalates and potassium.
Pair it with citrus fruits like lemon, which boost kidney elimination.
An annual blood test (creatinine and potassium) will tell you if you’re doing well. Moderation is key, says Healthline (March 23, 2025), so this fruit can be an ally, not a problem.

A Balance for Your Kidneys

Avocado can nourish or challenge your kidneys in the long run. Its benefits are real, but ignoring its risks—high potassium, oxalates, calories—is a mistake few realize. Next time you make guacamole, think about your kidney health and adjust the dosage. Ready to eat it mindfully?
