Is there anyone out there that knows anything about the diet for Nephrotic Syndrome?

I was recently diagnosed, but I'm having trouble figuring out what I can still eat and what I can't. The sodium part is pretty strait forward, but finding info on phosphorus in foods has been a pain. What else do we have to watch out for?

Dietary recommendations:
Limit high protein animal foods to 1 oz per meal (preferably lean cuts of meat, fish, and poultry)

Limit high phosphorous foods such as cheese, cooked dried beans and peas, nut butters, soy, tofu, yogurt, and certain soft drinks.

Limit high potassium vegetables and fruits such as artichokes, avocado, bamboo shoots, beets, brussels sprouts, chard, greens (such as beet and collard), kohlrabi, okra, parsnips, potatoes, pumpkin, rutabaga, spinach, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, tomato juice, tomato sauce, wax beens, winter squash, yams, apricots, bananas, dates, honeydew, nectarines, oranges, prunes.

Avoid saturated fats and eat unsaturated fats in moderation.

Eat low-fat desserts only.

Monitor fluid intake, which includes all fluids and foods that are liquid at room temperature.
