All fruits contain nutrients to a greater or lesser degree, and the nutrients in different fruits are very good for the body. Experts say, for example, that an apple a day keeps the doctor away.

But not every fruit is good for everyone. You may be surprised to learn that fruit can make you ill, especially if you have a medical condition. Some fruits are harmful in certain diseases, and it is important to be careful before eating them.

People with kidney problems, for example, must be especially careful about eating fruit. In particular, they must make sure that no excess potassium or phosphorus enters the body.

The fruit to be most careful with is the banana. Although bananas are rich in vitamins and minerals, they also contain a lot of potassium.

If blood potassium rises too high, it can cause health problems for people with kidney disease. Kidney patients should find out whether a fruit contains potassium before eating it.

Besides bananas, avocado, canned food, dairy products, brown rice and processed meat also contain potassium.

Olives, apricots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, dates, oranges, raisins, chips and similar foods are also high in potassium, so kidney patients should stay away from them.
