Fósforo en la dieta

Nombres alternativos:

Dieta y fósforo

Fuentes alimenticias:

Las principales fuentes alimenticias del fósforo son los grupos de alimentos proteínicos de la carne y la leche. Un plan de comidas con cantidades adecuadas de calcio y proteína también suministra una cantidad suficiente de fósforo.

Aunque los panes integrales y los cereales contienen más fósforo que aquellos elaborados con harina refinada, corresponden a una forma de almacenamiento del fósforo llamada fitina, que los humanos no absorben.

Las frutas y las verduras contienen únicamente cantidades pequeñas de fósforo.
