Low-Phosphate Recipes and Helpful Hints
This section has low-phosphate recipes, which have been put together with the assistance of our son, who as a child was diagnosed with ADHD. Our son today is a highly qualified and competent Chef who has worked in restaurants around the world. These recipes are not just for people with phosphate-sensitivity, they are for the whole family, for everyone who wants to lead a healthier lifestyle. Our recipes are nutritious, require little preparation time and are delicious. They are suggestions/guidelines only, you may like to eat something very different and there is nothing wrong with that.
Dr Jo Williams, a nutritional scientist from the US recommends to consume: only raw dairy products as I do not find calcium is absorbed from today's ultrapasteurized products. However, I do recommend supplementing with magnesium as well since dairy products are low in magnesium and most people do not avail themselves of whole foods rich in magnesium. Highly processed dairy products might certainly exacerbate the effects of phosphates. In the agrarian society such as the Hebrews enjoyed thousands of years ago, they not only consumed a great deal of raw dairy products, especially cultured, unsweetened ones, but also whole grains that provided necessary balancing magnesium and other essential nutrients. I should add that the lack of (absorbed) calcium also causes hyperactive kids. Excess phosphates would create that imbalance/deficiency as I wrote about several years ago. Sucrose and high fructose corn syrups are major difficulties in today's diets, producing much the same and of course related symptoms as you are aware. Do you have a favourite recipe or a helpful hint that you would like to share with others?
