We have to track phosphorus for kidney disease and Cola is normally off-menu. However, a little might be allowed.

I found the phosphorus for Pepsi. It's 139.8+-4.6 mg P/L. But I don't know what the "P/L" is.

Does anyone know?

That was my first thought, but if it was per liter, it wouldn't make sense that the kidney doctors would make a big deal about it, since the restriction is 800-1,000mg a day. That would be 66mg P in a 16oz can.

It is per liter. Probably fine to have some if you eliminate all other food groups. This might be unadvisable if the docs also recommended that you obtain things like nutrients.
