    List of potassium foods

  2. Patsy Ray says:

    NEED FULL LIST OF K RICH FOODS

  3. Patsy Ray says:

    Not completely clear to me how to obtain this as nothing manifests ! Any hints ? Will I be able to obtain from this website ? My thanks. Patsy

  4. Bill says:

    Patsy, sorry about the page. It should be clear now, and I honestly don’t know how it got mucked up in the first place.

  5. Alana says:

    I appreciate this list of foods. Thanks!

  6. Ty butler says:

    I really appreciate this list because recently found out I have a liver disease and I have to avoid K+ foods I just don’t know what I can eat anymore thus list was all the foods I eat so I now know at least to avoid the highest form of K+ foods thank you!!

  7. betty says:

    not at all helpful. the popup on the left side gets in the way, so that you can’t see what you are looking for. There used to be a list that just listed the name of the food ei
    potatoes x number K+
    gr. beans ? K+
    Peas ? K+ etc. It was much easier to use. that was at least 4 or 5 years ago. It was much more helpful. I had to go to numerous web sites that sent me to the same place without giving me any information. There surely is an easier way to receive valuable information to keep a family member healthy.

  8. Bill says:

    I’ll check into the pop-ups (I assume you’re talking about the social buttons, as there aren’t any pop-up ads). The previous list was a more comprehensive list, but maybe too much for many people. Since you brought it up, here’s a link to the USDA DATA BASE of potassium content in foods. There’s a lot to read through, but it’s all there.

  9. Sarah says:

    Thank you for this list! I have potassium deficiency and recently my leg cramps started to get worse. I am hoping to purposely eat foods rich in potassium in order to avoid these painful cramps. This is the best list I have found thus far!

  10. Bill says:

    Thanks Sarah! If you can, let us know how it works out for you on the leg cramps.

  11. unbound says:

    Missing a whole bunch of potassium rich foods on this list. Most meats are very high in potassium. Well trimmed beef is actually pretty low in fat, and still high in potassium.

  12. Bill says:

    Look at my comment just above, and you can follow the link to the entire USDA database on potassium, in downloadable .pdf format. I just bolded it to make it easier to see. It’s 26 pages if you want to print it out. (If I listed every food here, the page would take forever to load.) Yes, just 6 oz. of trimmed sirloin will give you 640 mg. of potassium. Turkey and white meats are also good. Yet, chili con carne (on this list) is the prize winner, because it combines beans, tomato and beef.
