Foods High in Potassium - To Lower Blood Pressure
Potassium Rich Foods
Try to include adequate amounts of potassium rich foods into your regular blood pressure lowering diet. Potassium, another
mineral essential to good health, works with sodium to maintain the body's water balance and regulate blood pressure. Foods with high levels of potassium include many fresh fruits and vegetables (processed foods tend to contain less potassium than the fresh alternatives).
A wide variety of potassium-rich foods should be eaten daily. There's a large selection of foods to choose from, so there's really no excuse for not getting enough potassium in your diet.
Foods High In Potassium Include.....
Fresh Fruit - Apricots, Avocado, Banana, Cantaloupe, Dates, Honeydew melon, Nectarines, Prunes, Raisins, Apples, Grapefruit juice, Oranges, Peaches, Strawberries, Watermelon.
Meat - Chicken, Fish (not canned), Turkey, Beef, Lamb, Fresh Pork
Fresh Vegetables - Carrot, Celery, Baked Potato, Beets, Broccoli, Peas, Spinach, Sweet Potato, Tomato, Zucchini, Nuts
(Important note: if taking medication for high blood pressure, such as diuretics, consult a doctor before using salt substitutes that contain high amounts of potassium.)
