What foods can you eat for more potassium?
Bananas are frequently mentioned, but there are many others. The general categories of foods that are high potassium foods are the whole foods - vegetables, fruits (especially if dried) and legumes. Most lean meats, lean fish, and wild game have high amounts of potassium. Grains without the bran (i.e., not whole grain) are low in potassium. All legumes are high potassium foods -- kidney beans, lentils, garbanzo beans (chickpeas), black beans, pinto beans are high potassium foods. Fresh foods are best. Some dried fruits are good sources -- raisins, dried apricots. Canned foods may be okay if not high in sodium, which is a frequent component of food preservatives use in canned foods. When cooking high potassium foods, steaming or broiling or microwaving is the best way to prepare the food. Boiling draws the potassium out of the food into the water. If the food is boiled, the water should be consumed to get the potassium into your body.
