title: [Remarks concerning the treatment of hyperkinetic children with the so-called "diet poor in phosphate (author's transl)].
abstract: Compared with normal diets, the so-called "diet poor in phosphate" is really not poor in phosphate. Phosphate intake amounts only to 3% when ingested as food stuffs with phosphate additions permitted by law. The so-called "diet poor in phosphate" is poor in carbohydrates, dietary fiber and ascorbic acid. Animal proteins and fats, however, are high in this diet there by increasing the cholesterol intake. We cannot recommend this so-called "diet poor in phosphate" for children.
