IMPORTANT ANOUNCEMENT ABOUT PHOSPHORUS! Although the law does not require phosphorus amounts to be listed on food labels, many manufacturers do list a per centage of the recommended daily value. In the past the daily phosphorus intake recommendation has been 1000 mg for adults, especially senior adults and 700 for CKD patients. In 2021 the RDA will change to 1250 mg recommended daily. On food labels indicating a per centage, find the percent in mg of the new recommended value of 1250 even if you have CKD as that will give a more accurate phosphorus amount.

@kamama94 thank you for this information! I had no idea. On the topic of Transportation, is there any kind of service available to you on an emergency basis? Have you contacted your city to see if they have a solution for those who depend on transportation for life-saving services? It seems unconscionable for them to do that!
Blessings to the other great-grandmother who will help you out with transportation. She has my blessings and appreciation for stepping up to the plate.
