Descriptor English: Phosphorus, Dietary
Descriptor Spanish: Fósforo Dietético
Descriptor fósforo dietético
Scope note: Fósforo utilizado en los alimentos u obtenido de los alimentos. Este elemento es un importante componente intracelular y desempeña un àèl fundamental en muchas vías metabólicas relacionadas con las funciones fisiológicas. Las altas concentraciones de fósforo en la dieta pueden causar nefrocalcinosis asociada a alteraciones de la función renal. Las concentraciones bajas de fósforo en la dieta pueden causar un incremento de calcitirol en sangre y osteoporosis.

Scope note: Phosphorus used in foods or obtained from food. This element is a major intracellular component which plays an important role in many biochemical pathways relating to normal physiological functions. High concentrations of dietary phosphorus can cause nephrocalcinosis which is associated with impaired kidney function. Low concentrations of dietary phosphorus cause an increase in calcitriol in the blood and osteoporosis.
