Protein per bite
When you can only manage a few bites, the question stops being how much you eat and becomes what those bites are made of. This ranks common foods by how much protein they deliver per calorie — so you can see which ones earn their space.
Protein and protein-per-100-calorie figures are from FoodData Central (USDA Agricultural Research Service), as published in our protein density guide.

Enter a number you already have — from your clinician, a dietitian, or our protein calculator — and the last column shows how many servings of each food would add up to it. This is arithmetic on your number. It is not us setting one.

General nutrition information for comparing foods, not dietary or medical advice, and not a protein prescription. Figures are typical values for the portion shown; brands and preparation vary. Protein needs differ, and kidney disease in particular changes them — talk to your prescriber or a registered dietitian about your own number.
