A Varied List of Foods |
Whether you are suffering from high blood pressure or not, an extensive list of foods with potassium will help support cellular health.
Potassium is a mineral that is not stored in the body like other minerals, therefore, you an ample source every day. It is essential for the body’s cells to live.
Most foods contain some potassium, but you may need to select those types rich in potassium to support the body`s fight against disease.
I have grouped the foods into 4 categories for easier selection depending on each individual`s need or condition.
The foods are listed by their potassium content; from very rich, rich, very good, to good.
The Very Rich Category of Foods with Potassium
Foods, abundant in potassium should be sought after if this mineral is being leached from your system through diuretics or other drugs. Take caution when doing so. Either ask your doctor if the drugs you are taking increase or decrease potassium levels, or look at the information/side effects slip that comes with your prescription.
The Rich Category of Foods With Potassium
This second list of foods containing Potassium have many salad items included in it. Choose only one or two from this list, using other foods not so high in potassium to have a balanced variety.
The Very Good Category of Foods With Potassium
This is a nice mixture of potassium rich foods. There are about 4 or 5 ingredients that would do nicely for a vegetable soup along with a herb to season. They are not too high in potassium so they can be used as groups more safely.
Use your own judgement, but if you`re unsure and there could be complications, consult your doctor or dietician.
The Good Category of Foods With Potassium
The potassium content of foods in this last list is not as high as the rest, never-the-less, they are still a good source too. There are a few fruits listed that could make a juicy fruit salad for dessert.
Did you find what you were looking for? These foods are only a small sample of what`s available.
