3 Foods Have More Potassium Than a Banana

in #life6 years ago

Hello Friends,

According to the National Health Institute, United States, most people need 4.2 gram of potassium every day. If you don't take enough potassium in your daily diet, you become potassium deficient.
Potassium is present in all your cells of the body, it is not present not in the blood most of the time. So it is very hard to find out the potassium deficiency through the blood test.

Here I am going to suggest 3 fruits/foods, which are potassium-rich, these have more potassium than a banana.

Everybody says that banana a good source of Potassium, which is true, but these are many other fruits also which have more potassium than a banana. You can add these fruits to your daily diet.

1# Sweet potato.
A medium baked sweet potato has 542 milligrams of potassium. It is also rich in vitamin A, good for your eyes, vitamin C for your skin.

2# White Potato.
A medium-size baked potato has 941 milligrams of potassium. White Potatoes are low in calories and has a healthy dose of vitamin C and magnesium.

3# Beets.
1 cup of cut beetroot has 518 milligrams of potassium. Researchers revealed that drinking beetroot juice 90 minutes before your workout could boost performance.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
