What problems do processed foods pose to recommended phosphorous intakes?

Accepted Answer

Because phosphorus is commonly found in almost all foods,dietary deficiencies are unlikely.Foods rich in proteins-such as meat,poultry,fish,milk,and cheese-are the best sources of phosphorus.Many processed foods and soft drinks contain phosphate-based additives,and phosphorus intakes in the United States have increased as consumption of processed foods and beverages has increased.Phosphate toxicity is rare and usually reflects a significant problem such as kidney failure.Still,phosphorus intakes can be excessive when processed foods take center stage,disrupting kidney function and bone metabolism; high intakes are also associated with increased mortality.A UL of 4000 milligrams has been established.
