Generally, though 4800mg for adult, and a bit less for kids. If you are depleting potassium (through a great deal of sweating and exercise, or for other reasons) up the dose a bit. There's no danger in eating too much dietary potassium. It always depends on your needs and your lifestyle (are you living a potassium depleting lifestyle?).

I am suffering from cramps and was told by my doctor to introduce more pottasium into my diet so very useful to have a list of foods rather than supplements. Do you know what the recommended daily dosage is? I found this list very helpful.

Yes, most doctors are creatures of habit - they respond to everything with another drug. Nothing against supplements, but I see too many people taking loads of expensive supplements while at the same time they eat poorly. That's like banging your head on a wall every day, and taking an expensive brand of aspirin for the headaches. Thanks for your comments.

I am trying to get what I need thru foods instead of supplements. I hate to say it , but Dr.s just pile it one. Maybe those that do not eat healthy need it. These comments and the list are helpful.

All foods have potassium. For the most potassium rich foods, such as milk, you'll have to limit and monitor your consumption. Try to lean your diet towards foods with less potassium. Your comment, in fact, inspired a new post about the <a href="http://potassiumrichfoods.com/277/low-potassium-diet/" rel="nofollow">low potassium diet</a>.

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.
